I think you will see that X Plane has come along ways and has so much more to offer in so many ways. I made the move a year ago and have seen so much improvement in just a year, and more is coming real soon. :rolleyes: P.S. one thing which I really really like about XP is the simple way in which scenery can be added and removed, and the scenery add-on's by the community is just outstanding.

Looks fantastic and I will be looking at this very closely. I love these old planes and this one could take some time to learn, back to Flight 101 and plz continue to give us more here at XPlane

But wait, that horse ain't dead yet, beat it some more :blink:

As a new user of XPlane, the scenery which comes for free from many in the XPlane community is in many respects just as good as those who charge and more often then not is more then acceptable. I for one do not pay much attention to payware scenery (and this comes w/ experience) and look at it as a money pit. I spend far more time flying in the acrft and enjoy it far more then the few minutes I am at any airport. My sim experience over a year will take me to airports world wide by the dozens and dozens. But for many, payware is worth the expense, just not for this simmer. ^_^ And w/ or w/out April Fools day, my comments stand

What's worse is that they so often(that's 99.9%) ignore what should be slapping them in the face w/ common sense and simple facts. These shows prey on the ignorance of many and the stupidity of others, that is not to say that life elsewhere cannot exists, it means until I see one from somewhere other then Hollywood etc. I don't buy these notions and neither should others. I really get angry how so many have bought into the theory that man has not been to the moon just because some show placed a lot of absolute BS into their minds. Nothing about this particular show(s) had any science or truth behind it, and that's where ignorance takes hold, which is the first step to stupidity. :blink:

Hey, they can beam me up anytime, anything to escape the madness :blink:

lol, well I am up there but not 90, and if you are up there you should know better, lol take care, one old fart to another :rolleyes:

Hi from Sumas, great photos :rolleyes:

Why did we never return, so simple and I fear I have to ###### on the party, economics son, economics. Look at the history of NASA and our gov. policy for spending the vast, and I mean vast amount of dollars just to send 1 Saturn 5 into orbit. If you don't believe me, you are too young. :blink: UFO does not mean it has to come from another planet :o what, you mean they are not all aliens, yup. :blush: :blink: Was a commercial pilot and probably explains why he is not flying for the USAF Thank god it was not a B-2 bomber w/ a nuke :huh:

Plz put me at rest Strider1 and tell me you are not a commercial pilot, plz :( :huh:

Well dude, there are 150 correction, 149 people who would call you ridiculous, and you sir should understand a few things. Good day

I don't know what your reading, but that was not suggested in any way by me, and (2) you obviously are not or did not read my initial post carefully. Try again :rolleyes:

Look many pilots have problems, and this accident has brought to light some serious questions and if you had read my first post on this you would understand. :blink:

I debated if I should even respond to your rebuttal, if you think a 27 year old w/ only 500 hours or even a 1000 belongs in the cockpit of a complex jet as this then you nn to go have a long think. . His time in the cockpit was a joke and I hope that German Wings and or DLH gets taken to the cleaners. I have worked for many airlines and I don't know of anyone of them that would allow someone w/ his obvious lack of experience to jump right into a large jet w/out first spending many (hundreds) hours flying smaller acrft. You cannot even defend this action by the airline, and this sort of practice needs to stop industry wide. I have known hundreds of pilots who spent 1000's of hours flying in all conditions w/out an autopilot before even being considered to fly a complex jet. I am sure QANTAS is damn thankful they did not have this experience level when their A380 suffered a major malfunction. There is an old saying in show business, don't practice on the public's dime. German Wings has a lot to answer for about this guy and his employment record. Still in shock :blink: By the way, no one said he should not get experience flying w/ an airline, read more carefully.

How would you feel, if your a parent then you can answer your own question.
