Flight Sim eXperience Aus Roads Rivers & Mountains

Hi Fellows of the Yoke and pedal, Recently bought the above bundle for about $80AU. Unlike some, I mainly fly out of small local airfields.

Re: Cumbernauld Xtreme

The Horizon VFR has been promising a full Scotland for years. If the decide to go for Hi-res like the 'Isles', it will probably cost over 100 quid to cover, which will be silly. I never fly north of the border now (I hate FSX UK default scenery) and would love to see the Highlands in VFR. Hi Trev, ...

Re: BAC One-Eleven

I read these posts with a deal of interest. 747 is obviously a casual or new visitor (2 posts). He/she very likely does not have English as his first language, (mis-spelt "the" as "teh", but this could have been a finger slip, as few folks seem to check their spelling these days,...

Re: An amazing man

Yes, I've actually seen a longer talk by this fellow; you can't watch him without doing a reality check on your own situation. Powerful stuff.

Re: Leif Harding

You meet on line, you start to reach out, then they're gone. I never touched Leif, but I feel a space where he was.
Heartfelt condolences to Leif's family. He will be remembered.

Re: Wonkypedia-attention Leif H

I started to wonder why you chaps were complaining about the weather in the U.K., then I realised that you're upset about having to get your Winter clothes out, and it's only the start of Autumn.

Re: Wonkypedia-attention Leif H

As I understand it, Escorts and Stewards is for light hearted chat. This is a play on words - aeroplanes land at an Aerodrome, M Palin lands at his Palindrome, and hippopotamus land at the Hippodrome. Apologies for confusing you.

Wonkypedia-attention Leif H

G'day All, Recently, Leif mentioned a Palindrome in connection with Boeing. I checked a few facts in my copy of Wonkypedia, only to discover that it actually has nothing to do with Panama (sorry, Leif!), but in fact is a private landing strip used by ex humourist and recent world traveller, Michael ...
