Just a quick hello

Postby helios16v » Tue Nov 10, 2015 4:32 pm

Hello all. I'm getting back into flight sims for the first time since Jane's F-15 & AH-64 nearly 20 years ago. Figured I would pop in and say hi as I'll be poking around the forums a bit in my search for a community to tie some roots too. I picked up FSX-SE a couple weekends ago and getting my bearings again. With my background, I've naturally ventured straight towards the military aircraft...been having a blast in Dino Cattaneo's T-45 & F-14 along w/ Aerosoft's F-16 that I just snagged on Sunday. I've got to say, I knew the flight-sim community was big...but the amount of peripheral programs & add-ons has blown me away. One of my favorite sites to play around w/ so far has been SkyVector. Who knew planning flight routes could be so entertaining. :mrgreen:

I snagged DCS World (w/ Flaming Cliffs 3) as well, but haven't spent too much time in it yet. It's certainly pretty intense...and I need to really sit down and spend some time to learn the systems to really utilize the sim at all.

Anywho, back to lurking. Cheers!

Welcome to SimV.

Flight sims today are FAR ahead of what they used to be. And like the real world, there's a hundred and one ways to go.

Welcome & enjoy.

I love Jane's F-15. If you can fly that you can fly anything. Welcome back.
