Re: UKMIL RAF Conningsby at AVSIM now

Yes it is superbly detailed and I should know having worked here for 15 years as a civil servant, however one irritating problem is that when taxiing from the Has's the aircraft think they are on grass so throw up dirt from the wheels and it's a bumpy ride. Anyone know a fix for this?

Flight Sim Nirvana(in FS9 anyway)

Finally had graphics card failure(strange jagged anomalies spreading across screen)coupled with a noisy HD so bit the bullet and purchased a new PC. After hunting around finally settled on a small firm called Chillblast and ordered what one reviewer called the fastest PC for the money you could buy....

Get your British HP sauce now!

Has anyone tasted the new Dutch manufactured HP Sauce- it's a travesty!
Stock up now with the B'ham hard stuff whilst it's still available. And no I'm not joking!

I'm thinking of buying an external HD back up for the transfer as they are quite cheap at the moment and will always be useful. This one caught my eye. What do you think?

How exactly do you install your old HD as a slave? Is it like networking or merely a USB connection between pcs?
