...you tell your mate to put on that kimono because you're flying into Tokyo tonight and she's the "girl in every port".

When you call in to work sick with a strange illness called addonitus. You claim you must have got it from something you "downloaded" the night before.

The wife tells me to turn the vacumm cleaner off as she is executing a tight ILS approach to minimums. CAT 3, I might add.JimCYWG

...you get into a bar fight and tell the other guy you'd punch his lights out, but they don't work anyway....he agrees and complains about how dim his vision is unless looking to one side or other.

OK..my turn.1. You have a red light in your room to simulate the cockpit lights at night.2. You look outside at the clouds and say "Those look like FSW clouds"3. When you are flying VFR and are apporaching clouds you tell your co-pilot "It's OK, they are paper thin, we won't go IFR"4. When you walk down the street and it's windy...you turn your body into the wind and walk crabbed. 5. You drive a circuit around your home before you pull into the garage and you phone home on your cell phone from the car and ask for permission to 'drive in'.6. As you pull into the driveway you put the car in reverse to slow down and you pop the trunk as a spoiler (That would actualy be funny to witness) :-lol7. After you get out of the car you tie it down.8. When you enter the house you say "Hi Honey" to the computer.9. When a new version of FS comes out you take sick leave from work.10. The couches in your home are actualy salvaged seats from a plane.11. Your car has an altimiter and a compass on the dashboard.12. When you see a plane overhead you think "that looks like the enw POSKY 747"13. You've been simming too much when you realize that you are 60 and single because all the females think you're weird and run away.14. People call you Cap'n F Simmer.15. On casual Fridays at work you arrive in a fighter pilot jump suit.16. Your car has your name written undeer the driver's window "Captain F (Weirdo) Simmer"OK..that is enough for tonight.Take careMike

You know you have been simming too much when...You're driving down the highway, you see a hill (grade) ahead and gradually start to apply back-pressure on the steering wheel while adding throttle (accelerator pedal), when the hill is crested, you retard the throttle while adding forward-pressure to resume assigned highway elevation.
