Now that gave me a chuckle. 😁

I'm still trying to research who originally LEEKED this earthshattering news.

Some guy with an "A" in his name, maybe🤢

Every time I fire up P3D or Xplane I check for leeks.  But most of my pax prefer carrots, good for vision, and celery, high fiber.....

Funny thread lol.

Geez, I haven't seen that clip/gif in ten years or so! And it still does not fail in making me laugh!

(The original video with sound is much better though. "[Unintelligible language, maybe Russian]...[Running noises]...SPLAT!".)

Fun fact: in Austria and Germany a "leek" ("Lauch") is an youth slang term for "i-d-i-o-t" 😉 

More like a slender, tall guy. An word not allowed would be a "Larry" or "Otto". But then again, who knows what's getting the most likes among our fellow kids right now...

I don't think that'll happen any time soon. LM has its reasons for making p3d, and the "casuals" aren't it, though we're providing some nice ancillary income.

But even if they pull the plug now, and we decide that 4.5 is too buggy, 4.4 is worlds better than FSX was.  And FSX was still going strong 10 years after Microsoft fired the devs. The current state of p3d could carry us to 2030 easily, by which point LR will have had time to eclipse it. I don't think desktop flight sims are going away any time soon.

 

 

Be careful now. Those comments are too serious for this leaky thread. If we're not careful one of those mods will come along and leek this discussion. 😂😂

In ORBX you have to check the control panel to turn on LeekFlow.

I'm pretty sure this is meant as a joke. As such, let's have a little fun and not be serious for a change. Keep it within the boundaries of our TOS and good taste though. 😆

Obviously a joke; it’s just not funny, not even a little bit...

i never in a million years would have expected good ol' leekspin to be a topical response to an avsim thread 😃

Great. Now that song's in my head for the rest of the day. 😄

 

I think it's great that we can have a thread that is just silly.  We all need a chuckle from time to time.😁

Just for reference regarding spesimen's gif:

i did go back to FSX STEAM and having a blast with all the latest addons.....FSX feels like home and P3D feels like a motel near my home that i use to cheat on FSX once in a while😁

Which is (was) more fun?

C'mon, guys....whatever happened to "Whirled Peas"?  We need more of it!
