Greetings to you all.  ;)

Am AbzWayne, I hail from Aberdeen, Scotland and am totally aff ma heid!

Ok, so properly am Wayne (ye might have guessed that), kinda new to flight sims ( have dabbled in the past, but never really took it seriously enough to buy a joystick ) and I have just ordered FSX and a Logic 3 PC PRO Flight 2.

Now to begin with, my current PC is not gonna be up to much at all, so am gonna take it slowly, and just learn as I go.

Always been fascinated with planes, ever since I saw a F1-11 fly overhead ( during the Falklands conflict ) and my current Fav plane to view

Greetings and salutations Wayne!  I salute you for typing the way you speak.  Samuel Clemens (better known as Mark Twain) wrote in several different American southern dialects in his book 'The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn'.  Whoopee, right? :)

Bonjour Wayne, don't worry some of us mods are half-Jock (the other half is Paddy) so you're in sound company ;) ;D

As in the making of a great din?

I've applied a fake brogue to some Gaelic related songs but the actual linguistics are lost to my generation. Although my surname is thought to be English, the expedition to the New World actually set out from the Isle of Mann; I first thought 'twas a mixup with the McCormick [sp] entry (she eloped with my Native American great-grandfather) but my surname also sported a tartan, evidently associated with MacDonalds. As to my mother, her maiden name exceeded both Irish and Caledonian southern borders of Dalriada, considering themselves Scot-Irish. Nevertheless, as long as what you type is close to Modern English, I may suffice without a translator.

Americans are (myself included) the mutts of the world.  I am proud of my heritage (Scottish, English, and French) but when it comes down to it I am none of the above.  I am
(insert drum roll here)... American. ;) 8-) :)
