I've always flown 2D as it's just too hard to move around a VC.

I haven't got Track IR or a hat swith thingy on my joystick though.

Ahhh Art, so that's what it's called...

I wish i'd known that when, as a fearless young 17 year old, i'd placed my dad's brand new Escort upside down in the worlds biggest and most smelly ditch. :doh:

If he thought it a thing of beauty... I'd probably have got less of a hiding... :roll:

I've gone for number one. I guess the number of people who are still on dial-up is pretty slim now days so it will make it easier for the masses. One down side to that is the space being taken up on peoples hard drives with liveries peoople will never fly. Auto installers should (hopefully) keep sup...

With rgds to the police, I understand that they are busy, but if they are that busy that somebody cannot spare the time to visit the crime scene then don't tell me that someone will be round.
