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.

Re: Rating of downloadable files. Votes.

So, like the human tail, if we're not going to use it, let's get rid of it.
What does the Ministry think, is deleting it just more work, more trouble than it's worth?

Re: Automatic log in upon visit?

Thanks for your experiences, I'm using Firefox 6.0.2, and according to the "Tools/Options" my 72.2Mb cache is not clearing on close down; it has a limit of 1024Mb, and there are options to clear if I want. I thought there may be something in the member control panel, but I did not see anyt...

Automatic log in upon visit?

Since I applied for membership, I've ticked the auto log in box, but I always have to enter my user name anyway. Am I missing something, or is this another defunct aspect like the rating & voting options?

Re: Late WW2 HMS Victorious

Even better, the early HMS Victorious has Hurricanes on the deck! My two absolute favourites are the Hurricane and Oxford.

Sound & panel files in FS9 & FSX. Do you do it?

Sound & panel files in FS9 & FSX. Do you do it?

G'day All, When I was pushed for space on my old system, I used a couple of sharing folders; I have continued this into FS9 & FSX. Maybe you're all doing this already, but for those who don't --- I place two folders in Aircraft: "Power", the other "Panellib". All my add-on so...
