Your age?

Recommended Posts

I thought everyone on average would be older. How do you find the time? I only used FSX after I retired and needed something to pass the time. I am 73

Well I don't know about you, but I try to work to live, and not live to work...

42. Seems like last week I was 18. Been into flight simulation since I got a Commadore Amiga 500 for Christmas 87. Who remember's F18 Interceptor for the Amiga 500? My first MSFS was FS95 22 years ago. I have owned every version since and accumulated thousands of hours on every version since.  How things have changed!

My Introduction to Medicare physical is next week so guess that means I'm 65. Seems like yesterday I found a program on a U of F (Florida) mainframe called "Fly a Plane". Stayed there flying, with only a keyboard, till security threw me out. That was 1980, soon after I flew an Apple II for many years.

Yes, same here. "F18 Interceptor" for the Amiga was my first own sim, too. Then I had "Approach Trainer Airbus 320" (by Thalion Software), then Sublogic's "ATP (Airline Transport Pilot)" followed by MSFS95 (FLTSIM 5.1), and so on...

I am 47 by now and I find that flight simulation is still an interesting hobby, although I am off quite frequently for some drone experience in the meantime (Phantom 3).

But when the weather is too bad, I am flying my PMDG T7F around the world B)
