It was a great ride

Those terms you are using, Jon, what do they mean?? 

[Appliance 51]

Polar ... just go, damn it ... this thread is tanking.

[WingZ 547]

Yup, no question; although I can remember, back in the day, you know, when it was uphill going in the morning, and even steeper uphill coming back in the afternoon...  :Whistle:

Flukey you will forever be famous for your contributions to VOZ (Vista Australis I seem to remember) and for your YSSY which remains the one and only rendition until perhaps FlyTampa releases theirs.  A  very long time at the top mate.

 

I remember a photograph of a group of enthusiasts nearby YSSY, including Aussieman, when JV came up from Mexico.  First time I saw an image of you.  Must say you've aged well. 

 

Don't forget to drop by in future.  You have many friends here you know.

[Wobbie 938]

Dunno 'bout you guys, But I still enjoy my 2x versions of my FS9. The second being 'Golden Wings". Especially with Garry & Edward's add-ons from http://ford-tri-motor.net/

 

FS9 works, & has always worked without  fiddling or faffing around.

Cheers mate, I truly hope flytampa do YSSY for FS9 but if not mine is always available for downloaded at aussiex ...

 

I remember that night BTW and that pic..Think I have it somewhere

 

I was halfway through my cancer treatment at the time and was a balloon..With the steroids they give you, on top of the fluid build up and a very sexy nutritiousness telling me eat whatever I want during treatment I gained about 30kgs HAHA LOL...(Mcnuggets was all I could stomach LOL)

 

I'm a mere shadow of that now (and all good health wise)..They were good times back in the day at VOZ....

Great to hear.

 

I fly GA in Australia and New Zealand with ORBX stuff in P3D, keeping FS9 for tubes and Rest-of-the-World fights.  Suits me and I know you will have an enormous amount of pleasure from your change.  Salute buddy.

Why do they put electrical outlets near the floor ..... whenever lamps and such are on tables above the floor?  Just wonder'n

[Arthur42417 193]

Bye bye Polar.

 

Good luck.

 

After all it's still flight simming ... 

Bipolar Disorder, also known as manic depressive illness, is a serious medical illness that causes shifts in mood, energy, and ability to function.    

[gwillmot 31]

perhaps next time I find a virgin topic I will award it 5 stars, and see if the pbF1sta again goes for a 1, to deliver a surely uninteresting 4-star result?

 

It appears that you are obsessed with the "pbF1sta" thingy, and I think I know why.

You have an interest in "weird" science ..... err, I mean math.  Your example above provides a deep insight into your psyche.

 

You say a 5-star rating and a 1-star rating equals a 4-star result.  Why THERE's your problem!  In the Northern hemisphere, (5 + 1) = 6 .... and 6 / 2 = 3 (average, don't you see?)  You've been expecting the wrong results all along!

 

If you were to realign your orientation with respect to widely accepted mathematical skills ...... well, who knows where your next obsession might take you! ..... just say'n.

 

and NO .... I'm NOT the pbF1sta whatever ..... I Am The Walrus .... Coo Coo Ka Choo!

[WingZ 547]

Think it through... most FS9 topics are excellent (of course), and so folk in response to the pbF1sta singleton, vote multiple 5 stars.

You need 7 "5" votes to bring the aggregate back to 5.

On this forum, there are not 7 people who could be bothered with such trivia: a 4 is the best you will ever see.

 

The psychology of the pbF1sta is interesting, if pathological.

Might make an interesting study for a postgrad studying antisocial behaviour...

Its ok, Wingz. Those other fsx and p3d'ers just jealous we actually fly and don't spend time discussing ctd's, Oom's, vas, water cooling, overclocking, stutters, DX fixers, fps, etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc.
