August 21, 200520 yr Donny AKA ShalomarFly 2 ROCKS!!!A real world pilot gave some tongue in cheek advice about IFR navigation. Can't see, don't know where you are, descend. Still can't see, descend more. Still can't see? Descend more, till finally you're not flying, you're driving. Then call AAA and get some use outa your membership...Seems like this aproach would work better in FS in Kansas with very sparse scenery and no autogen than the real world, but I thought it was funny."Medium size airport with Cessna 152 overhead, identify yourself!!!"

If you don't like what you see then shut them back off." :-hah----------------------------------------------------------------John MorganReal World: KGEG, UND Aerospace Spokane Satillite, Private ASEL 141.2 hrs, 314 landings, 46 inst. apprs.Virtual: MSFS 2004"There is a feeling about an airport that no other piece of ground can have. No matter what the name of the country on whose land it lies, an airport is a place you can see and touch that leads to a reality that can only be thought and felt." - The Bridge Across Forever: A Love Story by Richard Bach John Morgan "There is a feeling about an airport that no other piece of ground can have.
