Building the cockpit is fun, but you only have room for two. The next logical step is to buy interior panels and windows from a mothballed 737 (you can find them on eBay). I have been building out both the cockpit and front cabin (and passengers have a view out their windows). For my project I am putting more effort into the cabin, since it is for entertaining friends as much as it is a flight sim.

A custome party where people can pretend to be the jet-setters of the 60's and 70's, complete with an airplane cabin from that era, would be neat.

I could even see it being something one could make as a party location to be rented out.

If you live in LA, there is a place called Air Hollywood that does precisely that:
