Nice job!

I wonder how many of the armed criminals have applied for a license before using a gun in a crime. Oops, can't rob that guy's house until I get my handgun license. It's definetly not a bad thing for the armed criminals. It gives them a safe work environment. I guess it depends how tough the license requirements are for the law abiding citizen that makes it either a good or bad thing.

My "something heavy" is a 9mm Glock 26. I understand (correct me if I'm wrong), the British government has taken away your right to own a handgun to protect your home and family. Can you still own a rifle or shotgun for protection?Here in Pennsylvania, we recently upgraded our Castle Doctrine law. One of the provisions is that if someone breaks into your home ,it is assumed they are there to do you harm and deadly force is justified.

What you can learn from "Scourge of War: Gettysburg" is how to get your butt kicked by the AI. The AI may be the best ever developed for a war game.

About the only other one I play is "Scourge of War: Gettysburg". It was recently adopted by the US Army to train officers.http://www.norbsoftdev.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=frontpage&Itemid=1

Any aircraft know to man...briefly.

There's a lot of potential customers in the northeast between Maine and Virginia. Lots of major metropolitan areas with lots of fat wallets. The mountains of New England, the Appalachians in Western PA and West Virginia, the coastal regions, Chesapeake Bay, the Finger Lakes, the eastern great lakes. That's got to be popular with all the eastern simmers. As excellent as PNW is, making a jump to the opposite side of the US seems like a move that would be financially advantageous for Orbx. Plus besides modeling the cars and trucks, Orbx will have to model horse and buggies for Pa. Amish country with a long string of vehicles behind the buggy.

I'm posting this here because I'm not registered over at the Flight1.com support forum for EZDOK. At the EZDOK support forum the members are encouraging each other to petition TrackIR to work with the EZDOK company to integrate the two products. There is some talk on the forum that TIR is holding back software from EZDOK that would allow the integration or that TIR may be planning to develop effects for TIR similar to EZDOK. Following the forum members suggestion, I emailed TIR (giving my phone number) to encourage the two companies work together. They called me within the hour to explain why they can't supply EZDOK with what EZDOK needs to make it TIR compatible. Not being a software person alot of what the gentleman told me went over my head, but it sounds like there is no SDK, per se, for TIR. It sounds like they do not have an in-house software design team and are mainly hardware oriented. They said they do not have the personnel to develop a EZDOK type effect nor do they plan to. It's not they don't want to work with EZDOK, it's just that they don't think they have anything to give them that would help the effort. My apologies to TIR is I got any of his explanation wrong. I suggested to the person I talked to at TIR that they post the information they discussed with me on some of the sim forums such as this one or over at Flight1.com to provide information on the current situation between the two companies.Anyway, maybe some here who is registered at the EZDOK support forum over at Flight1.com can copy and paste this info. Thanks.

The demo also convinced me that PNW is a must have. Will be purchasing as soon as $ allows.

On my computer I can double click on the KMZ file and it automatically puts me into Google Earth with the PNW demo area outlined in red. Then I can zoom in as much as I want to see what is in the demo area. By zooming in sufficiently, I can clearly see Seattle is just outside the demo area.

I want it.

I like the EZDOK vibration effects but I spend almost all my time in the VC using TrackIR so if I understand the various discussions, I'll have wait until (if) a TIR compatible version is made.

Thanks Glenn. I would have guessed Cessna had some sort of quick-connect system.

In real life how do you attach/detach the cargo pod?

Thanks again for checking. Wow, that's weird about me being the only one to have the taxi light switch status show when I put the mouse over the lower left gauge in the six gauge cluster. Looks like I'm going to have to have a talk with my mechanic. I'll copy the Beaver fuel pump sound to the Skywagon.Everyone else is up flying and we're still inspecting the aircraft. Blame my technical background.John
