And you do a very fine job...............Doug

640K ought to be enough for anyone.............................

I've used both wired and wireless for years. Never saw a difference..........Doug

Absolutely fake. The giveaways are almost too many to mention....................

I see you have also blended-in the downtown buildings 😊 . It's a shame that everyone didn't get a chance to relish in the excitement of those early days of flight simming. I was so fascinated by the gauges back then I could even see them in my sleep. Indeed, who'd have thought...................................

Great stuff guys.....thank you.....Doug

I agree. The only thing NVI will give is an insane amount of AA. But, as J van E says, you really don't need to do even that. I'd forget about NVI..........Doug

I seem to recall that a few years back Tyndall was on a short list of possible base closings. Given the extent of the damage it makes one wonder about the rebuilding possibilities..........Doug

I think it all boils down to what the OP means by "training". While I won't judge the extent to which either PMDG or iFly contribute to "training" I can say that I own them both and have over 50 hours in a Southwest 737-700 Level-D simulator. To my mind the iFly, as compared the the PMDG, comes no where near the "feel" or the systems function/complexity of the real thing. I have no doubt that, for anyone serious about 737's, the only choice is PMDG. Just MNSHO and all mileage is, of course, variable...............Doug

Look at Options/Settings/Display/Graphics and if there is a checkmark in the box next to Preview Directx10 remove it.........Doug

I love it Sue. I bought a brand-spanking new VW Bug in 1967. I learned real quick to not drive it though a puddle with the heater on. Doing so fogged up the windows so badly that the only thing I could do is park the car and wait for nature to take its course. I'll always love the Bugs. It's sad to see them go.................Doug

Exactly Noel. And I also agree that anyone who has sat around a hangar on a windy, rainy day would know that we didn't just talk about "airplane stuff", What's the fun in that? The day would be full of bragging about the women we've known (sorry Sue), lying about the women we've known, and talking about almost any topic you could imagine. I'll bet that 80% of everything said had nothing to do with flying machines..........Doug

Good catch.....time for me to get out all the wire hangers from the cleaners and put them on display,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This doesn't fix a "perceived problem". All it does is change the wording to reflect another point of view. I agree with Sue....how about a forum for a little humor? And Noel.....I can't believe you lived in Denver (The Mile-High City) and never joined the Mile-High Club without the need for an autopilot.....😃..........Doug
