June 30, 200520 yr I followed the following link from VATSIM's fron page yesterday and I love what I found:http://joepodcaster.libsyn.com/I never heard of a 'podcast' before, so I downloaded the first program, burned it to a CD and listened to the 20 minute nostalgia trip back in time while driving to work this morning.I felt like I was actually back to the wonderful days of flying. I really miss the glamour and adventure of flying in the 60's and 70's. That is what brought me to my hobby of 'Flightsimming', which I have been addicted to since 1984. 'Podcasting' is really another great medium, which I just now discovered. I just downloaded the next four podcasts and am really looking forward to listening to them. I sincerely thank Joe Dion for his very entertaining and enligtening experience behind the scenes of the airline industry.Howard Bloom Howard Jetline Systems: Intel 8th Gen Core i7 8700K (4.8GHz Overclock); GTX 1080 Ti; LG Curved UltraWide 3440x1440 Monitor .
June 30, 200520 yr and if you don't believe Howard is a flight sim old timer, I remember a photo of him in what I recall was Full Throttle Magazine. he was sitting on the hood of his car, looking very cool for the time...btw, Howard...refresh my memory: did that car start with a hand crank?...:-)Sherm
June 30, 200520 yr Hi Sherm-That picture was even before Full Throttle, it was in the MicroWings magazine. Remember that one? ;-)It's been a while and we have to resume our Saturday Chicago Flight Simmers meetings. I know that Doug Horton has tried but our schedules seemed to be clashing.Hope all is well.Howard Howard Jetline Systems: Intel 8th Gen Core i7 8700K (4.8GHz Overclock); GTX 1080 Ti; LG Curved UltraWide 3440x1440 Monitor .
June 30, 200520 yr right you are Howard...Microwings, which I still have on the shelf in my "collect all and never throw away anything that has to do with flightsimming" closet. How about if I scan the pic and post it here....anyone want to see the real Howard?..:-)Sherm
July 1, 200520 yr >Finally, a podcast worth listening to.>You are so right. This is a perfect example of how a high quality podcast should be.I merged all files into one large audiobook soundfile, and loaded it into my iPod. Great work! Very enjoyable to listen to. ;-)http://www.scandicair.com/images/Banner_ariane_4.jpg Staffan
July 1, 200520 yr Author This isn't really the place for it but my view of the "Podcast Revolution" is 1,000,000 channels and nothing to listen to. With one exception.
