Shocking news. Indeed, as stated many times above, an immense loss for the Avsim and entire FS Community. His tireless efforts to help all on this forum will be missed. R.I.P Dear David...

Ahh...The early versions of Ghost Recon... :( :( I still have the soundtracks on my ipod, I just loved those games. :( I like to play my games on the PS system. Trouble free, just insert the CD (now blu-ray) and play.

Both.Although I liked the singleplayer slightly more.Games are usually better in singleplayer, multiplayer is more challenging for the producers.

Couldn't think of a better one!

Medal of Honor Tier 1, hands down...Of all the FPS games, I have never experienced better sounds.Black Ops was a disappointment for me, the campaign mode isn't that bad but the multiplayer mode is (was) plagued with problems... Such a shame.

Nowadays Call of Duty, Gran Turismo and Medal of Honor on PS are among my favorite IFEs.Movies are good too.

George Grimshaw's KBOS is awesome.EDIT: The Mach-1 sceneries aren't bad at all either.

Magnifique!!

Hi Chuck,Definitely go for World Air Routes. There are tons of videos to choose from, some of the best being 737NGs and/or 767s. NEOS, Arkefly, Lauda, Air Italy are among the best.altstiff is also an avid collector of WAR dvds, I hope he chimes in on this.(He's the one who got me into WAR dvds too!)

Sad news...Great comedian.

Not a big deal though... I didn't notice it myself, maybe it's ok in the PS version. :(

Jolie la gueule!! (de l'aéronef evidemment!)

Hi,I don't know if there is an easy way to convert those files to bgl but I usually search the library for an AF2 file corresponding to the scenery.Most of the time, with all the free stuff there is for FS9, there are more than a couple of files available.

Vic,Don't we all get ###### like that!!I do what Al says after those moments, hop in a simple GA bird and just fly with the default scenery...And, I agree with you on game consoles, no worries with my PS3, just feed the CD sit back and enjoy!! :(

Hey Mark, nice taste in books you got there.I enjoyed Haney's Delta Force and Schemmer's No Room for Error very much myself, real page-turners. :(

Indeed, a huge loss for the Roch familiy and their loved ones... My thoughts are with you.David my dear friend, my deepest condolences, I have often thought about your son and prayed for his recovery ever since you told me of his illness. May he rest in peace after enduring such hardship. :(

Thanks for the kind words!!Another Avsim member who got me into doing one has also an excellent blog, check it out here: http://altstiffsim.blogspot.com/It's always great to see how others are flying, not to mention the inspirational part. Everyone has different taste, some only like screen shots, others detailed reviews (as I do)...It all depends on what you like, if you're into flying with SID/STARS taking into account weather for instance, you should definitely write about those too. After all, one can just take a look at the shots if that's what they're into...I say, go with your original shots without compressing them. Blogger provides quite enough space for those larger files.

I agree with what's said above. The VOZ version is the one I use, not bad at all in my opinion.I might be wrong but I remember the demo version of YMML 2006 having those "DEMO" signs around the airport... :(

Hi Ark,Your blog rocks!! Great job. :( As Scott said above, you should definitely throw in more details. Why not fully blog your flights?Looking forward to your posts.

Count me in on that too. I never had any short field take-off issues.

Rafal and the other posters sums it up pretty well...I'd like to add TBPB by Max Kraus, RPLB by Ron Santiago and LIPQ 2009 by Alberto Pastorutti...I'm sure there are others though... :(

WOOHOO!!This is great news!!!Thank you guys for your generosity :( :(

Great news, especially as far as KPHL is concerned...perfect for my US flights

Iain,You can find plenty of freeware sceneries here, most of them quite frame-friendly.http://www.freewarescenery.com/fs2004/whatsnew.phpHave fun.

This problem occurs at airports where the take-offs and landings change on the opposite ends of the runways. (if that makes any sense!) In Ben Gurion's case you can use separate afcad files according to the winds. Alternatively, tie the runways so you have both of them in use and ask for the appropriate one during departure or arrival. I favor the 2nd method as I don't really care which runways my AI use. If however you want the most realistic usage the only way I can think of is separate AF2 files...Maybe someone has a better idea...? :(
