Thanks again, Damian... :9 I like your Service Updates... I am going to try it right now, long tryp with my 767...

Thanks again for all the hard work! I'm beginning to think I'm psychic though. The last two updates came out within a day of me thinking "I wonder if a new AS update is out?" while logging into Avsim. :-lol
