Well I have to say im addicted to flightsims freeware.Whenever I get a chance I check for any new freeware addons. Install em and play, and take screenshots.I spend most my time trying new planes, the most I ever really fly 1 flight is usually about 30 min.. ocationally I do a long flight but I think its more fun to try out alot of planes

Hi people,Sorry to say but my little bit of advertising for this great thread has already been badly received... Seems some of us just can't find the time to laugh. Quite frankly this kind of attitude makes me sick and is slowly eating away at our forum and hobby like a virus. Catch you later. Great thread and thanks for writing.AFOX :-wave

My friends at school think I am crazy to play Flight Simulator...Kitty MercuryCathay Pacific Virtual Pilot (CX252)

'My friends at school think I am crazy to play Flight Simulator...'Play, like in game? Sacrilege! FS combines physics, math, geography, logical, disciplined thought processes, hand to eye coordination and stress management. Come to think of it, pretty much what ya go to school for. The fact that's it's fun too just points out the shortcomings of the educational system, and it costs a whole lot less :-)jb

I have to admit that I have become addicted to flight simming since I got started in it about two years ago. I practically live at my computer. hehe I either am flying or spending time in the forums here at Avsim and X-Plane.org. When I am not at my computer, I am still always thinking about avaition.Rob
