Turkish Airlines Just Ordered Another B737 MAX Simulator.
Here's How Real Simmers Are Building Theirs.
HAVELSAN has just completed the Factory Acceptance Test for its third Boeing 737 MAX full flight simulator destined for Turkish Airlines — joining six existing Level D certified devices in operation. The simulator will support the airline's ongoing pilot training programs as it expands its 737 MAX fleet. Read the full story →
Home cockpit builders are doing it differently — and the Rowsfire B107 is where those builds begin. Now $110 off at $593.99, it's the most capable B737 overhead panel available for home sim at any price.
What the B107 actually is
A comprehensive Boeing 737 overhead panel built for serious sim pilots — covering every system, every section.
The B107 replicates the Boeing 737 overhead panel layout — the same switch positions, the same system organisation, the same tactile logic that real 737 crews work through during pre-flight, climb, cruise, descent, and shutdown. Every system section is present: fuel, electrical, hydraulics, bleed air, anti-ice, pressurization, fire suppression, lighting, and more.
This is not a partial panel or a simplified approximation. It's the complete overhead — the part of the cockpit most home sim builds get to last, because nothing else comes close to the B107's combination of scope, accuracy, and price.
The EGT gauge — the detail that sets it apart
One of the most-asked questions from the sim community. Here's the answer.
The B107's EGT (Exhaust Gas Temperature) gauge is one of the most discussed features among serious sim pilots. It is a physical, animated instrument — not a screen or static indicator. The needle moves in real time in sync with your sim's engine parameters, exactly the way the real aircraft instrument responds. During engine start, you watch the EGT rise. During thrust changes, the needle responds. It's the kind of detail that turns a panel from a collection of switches into something that feels like an instrument.
Full compatibility — every B737 sim platform
The B107 works with every serious B737 simulation add-on available today.

The price — and why now
The B107 has never been this price. Here's what the numbers mean.
The B107 retails at $699.99. That is the price of a complete B737 overhead panel with animated EGT, full system coverage, backlighting, aluminum housing, and VESA mounting — purpose-built for home sim. For what it is, that is already a remarkable price point compared to any other comparable product on the market.
Right now, for a limited time, it's $593.99 — a saving of $110. This is the lowest the B107 has ever been offered. There is no coupon code, no catch, and no minimum order requirement.
The B737 MAX moment — why now is the right time to build
The news this week from HAVELSAN and Turkish Airlines is part of a broader pattern: airlines globally are investing heavily in B737 MAX training infrastructure as the type continues to expand across fleets. The demand for B737-rated pilots is growing, and with it, the value of realistic, procedure-accurate sim training.
For home sim pilots, this is exactly the context that makes a panel like the B107 meaningful. It's not just a peripheral — it's a training tool that mirrors the systems, procedures, and tactile logic of the actual aircraft. The EGT that moves like a real gauge, the overhead that covers every system in the real checklist, the compatibility with PMDG's Level D-accurate simulation — these are not features for enthusiasts. They're features for pilots who take the sim seriously.
