Flight Deck Solutions
FDS had a JetMax737 single seat device running. The JetMax737-SKTQ is a “Premium” Single Seat device and designed to get you fully immersed in your simulation experience. No more “Flying a Desk” when JetMax is involved, as FDS claims. According to their WEB FAQ
the setup is available in a variety of ways.The pricing seems to be very competitive.

CPflight
CPflight had a large selection of their products on display. All seen products were of very high quality and excellent in design. It was not easy for me to find a spot to make some pictures, because their booth was always very crowded. .
According to the interest of the audience, CPflight belongs to the leading companies for flight simulation components and is certainly trendsetter in quality, design, and service.

Paccus Joysticks
For me personally, the Paccus joystick was a new experience. According to the Paccus company the Joystick is the first one on the market with hydraulic force feedback. I have to omit that I do not have any experience with other force feedback joysticks, but for me the Paccus joystick is awesome. This joystick gives you a real feeling of the aircraft power. The hydraulic pressure can throw more than a kilogram into your hands.
The price tag on the joystick focuses on hardcore flight simmers with a high budget for investment
