  1. "the loadmaster went to checked the noise" Didn't realise commercial aircraft needed a load master. I am aware that military aircraft use them though.
  2. If you had looked at the "Classified Ads & "Want Ads" last week or so, I was giving away for free a Logitech Pro Flight Yoke. It was missing the clamp and was just postage paid, its now living in a tip !
  3. Personnel preference, whilst I found the content interesting, I found the music too intrusive , loud in some places, and really not necessary, however thanks for the link.
  4. Still preserved, unlike her sister the Pamir, on 21 September 1957, she was caught in Hurricane Carrie and sank off the Azores, with only six survivors rescued after an extensive search. RIP
  5. Apologies for my stupid post on the 8th with regard to the Yoko+ . Don't know what I was thinking, writing about a yoke when the question was about a throttle. I also have a VF TQ6 and its pretty good, but its still a bit expensive.
  6. My watch was so big, I had to stop wearing it, I got sick and tired of having to trim the aircraft every time I went flying ! 😏
  7. Your flight levels should be EVEN thousands to FL 280 then FL 300, FL 320 etc etc
  8. Didn't realize one needed a degree to think !
  9. Never understood the design philosophy with regard to the ASI. It doesn't lend itself to an instant recognition of your actual speed, at least it doesn't to my eyes.
  10. Thought a turban was something you wore on your head !
  11. And a kitchen is a galley, and a toilet is the heads, and your room is a cabin. and your bed is a bunk.
  12. Have actually had the use of the RFDS, when I was flown from an iron ore mining town in North Western Australia down to Perth, a trip of about 980 km. A really great service to isolated places in the outback.
  13. I know this is not the real answer, but if you have FSUIPC, it has a feature which creates an everlasting battery. That might help, and I think that feature is also in the free version. Cheers
  14. Ok, a pathetic LOL, Donald Rumsfeld is giving the president his daily briefing. He concludes by saying: "Yesterday, 3 Brazilian soldiers were killed." "OH NO!" the President exclaims. "That's terrible!" His staff sits stunned at this display of emotion, nervously watching as the President sits, head in hands. Finally, the President looks up and asks, "How many is a brazillion?"
  15. Depends if its Centigrade, Fahrenheit or degrees Twaddle !
  16. I know that this subject is a bit old, but I am having the same problem. Just bought the Premier !A for P3D v4. Nav data will not update, just sits there like a stale bottle of you no what. There are no click sounds for the switches, and both bottom sides of the cockpit is see through, that is, you can see the ground. Am not impressed, as I was really looking forward to flying this model. Have only ever bought one Carenado model before, but had to return it as it was unflyable. Hope this is not another lemon, and if it is, I will never by another Carenado plane again. Forgot to say that the throttles wont go to cut off either.
  17. It wasn't a full flight movie, but in the film Capricorn One, there is a fantastic flying sequence, with Telly Savalas as a crop duster pilot flying a Stearman Kaydet. He is being chased by a helicopter with the hero hanging onto a wing.
  18. Mount Panorama, in real life. 3 laps in the XY GTHO Falcon, Love the gear changes. Turn up the sound. Enjoy
  19. Probably get pilloried for this, but I cant stand the bloody things, Give me dog any day of the week
  20. Private Message: Look for the envelope icon at the top of your page, its next to the bell icon Cheers
  21. Jingle bells, jingle bells, Batman smells, Robins turning fast, etc, etc
