Thank You AVSIM Community and Special Thanks to Chris Palmer (AOA001) of AOA Media

Hey,

I just want to say my thanks to the community for all the awesome posts about flight planning, operation etc. The wealth of information on this website is absolutely stunning.

Froogle, Jane, PMDG and all those involved with Tony's Fundraiser - Thank You, I had lots of fun with all at the livestream.

Personal Thanks goes to Chris Palmer for Angle of Attack Productions - your amazing video on Aviator 90 - Episode 11 (Traffic Pattern) - Saved my life in the air last week. A general aviation aircraft was not following the rules by accident while we were in the Downwind Leg of a untowered airport. You videos made me learn the pattern and its component before hand. I never knew this knowledge would save me, your video taught me all the terms, and I knew where my location on the circuit was, hence I was able to quickly spot the aircraft approaching us. By the way I am not a pilot at all, just a passenger at the moment - that was my first ever general aviation flight.

I have posted the entire story in detail with pretty pictures in the Flight Sim & Aviation Section of this forum - here is the link to the massive epic post (Angle of Attack is in Part 1 and Part 4).

Chris, if you are ever up in the DC-MD-VA area, round of beer is on me. Can't wait to sign up for the Aviator Pro and learn more.

Thank You everyone, I am eternally grateful to this aviation community.
