June 1, 201610 yr Your son was a baby and now he's a man off on his own for 8 years You've owned 3 houses and 4 cars since then.... Steve McNitt
June 1, 201610 yr Ha! Good point! My son was 6 years old and my daughter 2 when I joined--and that was 1 house and 4 cars ago. He's now almost 21, and she's almost 16. Time flies when you're flight simming. Joel Murray @ CYVR (actually, somewhere about halfway between CYNJ and CZBB)
June 1, 201610 yr Author I was on dialup and the ISP was ###### because I had a "shotgun" dual modem card with 2 phone lines and they hadn't blocked multiple connections yet.. Steve McNitt
June 1, 201610 yr I'm thinking it's getting close to 20 years. It used to display "member since" however us early forum members had to reboot or restart our avsim forum memberships some 15 years ago. Amazing that this sim has so many loyal dedicated followers. Some started way back, like myself 34 years ago on a Commador 64. I often wonder where the future of flight and aviation simulation is going. It should be quit the adventure with some of the amazing Virtual Reality possibilities that are still yet to come. Cheers Steve

In fact it was 15 years ago last Tuesday (March 7) for us old guys. And yes I was here before the reboot as well, and thru the hack when I lost many of my repaint uploads. I remember joking with Tom a few years back that his profile noted he's been here since March 6, and he told me he was the only one who had that as a start date on the "new Avsim". All of us other old-timers had to settle for March 7. So a late congrats on your 15 years here! I did a celebratory screenshot for R. Randazzo since he's been here from the beginning too (and I enjoy flying he's company's aircraft, hehe): http://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/506288-happy-15th-year-on-avsim-rr/ Regards, Steve DraGet my paints for MSFS planes at flightsim.to here, and iFly 737s hereDownload my FSX, P3D paints at Avsim by clicking here
May 4, 20179 yr When your first sim from Sublogic came on a cassette tape - a whopping 32k. I remember when they petitioned the F.A.A. to have hours logged on the sim count as hours in your log.
