Gentlemen,Can we please not go down this road? Think of yourself being a Captain in charge of a multi-million dollar aircraft carrying 300 people and how you conduct yourself.Adam posted a lot here on AVSIM before the forum change, and besides, it's a legitimate concern to him. Please keep that in mind.

Adam's post seems to imply that people don't spend money on their hobbies. Oh yeah....ask a golfer, skier, equestrian, bicyclist, etc. Everybody who is seriously into a pursuit as a hobby will spend money beyond their initial investment (golf clubs, skis/poles, horse/tack, bicycle, etc.) Why should flight simming be any different. Haaa, try Photography as a hobby! $5000 invested over the past 3 years and I could easily double that just by buying one lens that I really want. ;-))Lance
