Re: F1 GTN Complete

Large Windows 10 Update 20th May 2018

A large Windows 10 update arrived on my computer today - it took 25 minutes to download and install! I have cleaned up as many files as possible but I have been left with nine objects on my desktop.

Re: F1 GTN Complete

So far I have watched several videos by "Chopsticks" which feature the GTN 750 or 650 installed in various aircraft touring Europe. I have not yet seen a ''SID" or "STAR" flown using the GTN 750/650 in Europe. That does not mean that there are no videos of such GTN procedure...

Re: Aeroplane Heaven Lancaster video

Nor me, but I am a little deaf. Too many loud noises, a 'doodlebug' knocked the chimney off our home and blew four houses up across the road. Then of course all those 0.303" and 9mm rounds sent down the range when I was in the RAF (but not in the RAF Rgt.). Not to forget sitting adjacent to the...
