Are you, perhaps, a day trader during the week and a pilot on weekends and after-hours? If so, you may be interested in using Volair Sim chassis as a comfortable and ergonomic day-trading station, while retaining its full capability as a flight sim cockpit. Over the years we have had a number of day traders who use Volair Sim either as a standalone day trading set-up or use it as a flightsim/daytrading combo.

Here is an example of Volair Sim with ThinkorSwim software. Day trading, not unlike flight simulation, requires a powerful computer so “repurposing” the flight-sim PC (and displays) for day trading without the need (and expense) for additional dedicated hardware is a big cost save.

The triple display stand and the large displays are perfect for charts, stock scanners, where the (optional) G1000 displays mounted to the Volair Sim Avionics Panel can be used for additional windows. One can use the iPad holder to mount the iPad which may be handy during trading (or serve as a back-up to close out a position in case of the software crash, etc.).

The supportive genuine racing seat is perfect for hours of comfortable trading. One can even use the left-hand mount for the (much needed) beverage holder!
