Re: Austin J40 Pedal Car

Ahhh pedal version of the A40 Devon. I had a '53 A40 Somerset - always needed the streering ball joints adjusted & greased & the head gasket changing every 3000 miles - could do it in 90 mins......Those were the days...............

Re: Must try this. 80 degree approach!

Its easier in an open topped kite in the VC on .3 zoom I find - I do it most of the time to save time in the circuit! Not in the RW though!

Re: It all looks a bit bouncy...

It can be rough at Benbecula - I experienced a landing in a Piper Chieftain when it gusted to 50 kts - pilot caught it just right luckily ( or good reactions more likely). A take off in the Llanbedr Devon there was also a bit scary with a very strong gusty wind!

Re: Upgrading from an Nvidia GTX-285

No upgrade elsewhere, just a straight swap of the graphics card.

Re: Upgrading from an Nvidia GTX-285

I've just gone from a Nvidia Geforce 8600GTS ('cos it died) to a Gigabyte Geforce GT630 which has a HDMI output (although I don't use it). Very pleased with it for running FSX as I can have most sliders full right & frame rates between 19fps to locked speed of 30fps. Temperatures also a lot, lot...
