| Description Aerotronics F-18 flight grip is 
                          essentially a dimensionally accurate  
                          casting of the real grip. It is populated with high-grade 
                          switches from the original equipment manufacturers, 
                          Otto engineering, Mason, as well as hi fidelity simulation 
                          switches. The F-18 flight grip is very similar to the Harrier flight  grip.  The only difference is that the  castle switch and the trim switch are reversed.  The photographs here depicted the F-18 flight grip. Features The real F-18 flight grip is made of a nonmetallic resin  like material.  Therefore, the  simulation product is resin-based.   Fortunately, the F-18 flight grip is mounted on top of a movable center  stick base.  This keeps the forces of  actuation minimal, putting less stress on the tail grip adapter and flight grip  itself. |
