May 8, 200224 yr I just thought this was a cool site. My apologies if you know about this already. http://www.wright-flyer.net/desertaviation/eagle/index.htmlEnjoy,Rich
May 8, 200224 yr A flight simulation with regular patches & updates! Sometimes as many as 3 a week!Thanks for the link rich!
May 8, 200224 yr Thanks for posting...looks interesting!http://www.thesalters.org/images/Avsim_sig_KS.jpg
May 9, 200224 yr Another sim of interest, and also free, is Orbiter....Take a look at it here:www.orbitersim.comWords can't even begin to describe the way this sim fills the niche of space travel....John, KPHX
May 9, 200224 yr Thanks for the link John. This looks like a wonderful addition and a real change-of-pace. I've only played around with it for an hour but I already share your enthusiasm. (And I thought landing a 744 was hard.....)Trip
May 9, 200224 yr And though it hasn't been updated for a while, let's not forgethttp://www.fasterlight.com/exoflight/index.html>Another sim of interest, and also free, is Orbiter.... >>Take a look at it here: >>www.orbitersim.com >>Words can't even begin to describe the way this sim fills >the niche of space travel.... >>John, KPHX
May 9, 200224 yr I think the exoflight project is probably history--and it was the project I was looking forward to the most. :(
May 10, 200224 yr Look really stunning.when I read the thread I thought orbiter was like a small Lunar lander you know the 1980 version... :-)Hurry up litle modem I want to see it tonight....Dan
May 10, 200224 yr Orbit is GREAT but real hard :)I still can not get the shuttle panel to go into orbit though if any body knows how you puts in the panels I would be greatfullAnniette xxxxxxx
May 10, 200224 yr 1980 version.The last one I used, loaded via punched tape into a teletype!like the golf game and the ASCII Mona Lisa! ;-)
May 11, 200224 yr Oh, that sucks.Do you think it's history because the site hasn't changed?Andrew>I think the exoflight project is probably history--and it >was the project I was looking forward to the most. :(
May 11, 200224 yr you mean the nude woman we had on ascii print was mona lisa ?I didn't recall Mr. Vinci was so an hot painter :)Dan"old timer"
May 11, 200224 yr For those that still didn't downloaded ORBITER. a small screenshottaken from author's site.Amazing, this guy worked alone during two years and his sim is absolutely GREAT. Also the animation is really as smooth as silk.this make me deeply think about fs2002 where so many programmer worked during so long time... and I would not qualify animation as "smooth as silk" even if you get 30 fps.Dan
