@ Pat...

It was Half Moon Bay (KHAF) which got me hooked on California, and the San Francisco Bay area in particular, with my new copy of "Flight Unlimited II" in 1997, with the FBO based at Half Moon Bay Aerodrome. A wonderful introduction to Flight Simulators!

I still have my copy installed on my HDD, together with its Charts, just to remind me of those joyous days, long ago!

..and the place to visit!...>>> http://www.flyincalifornia.com/flyin/KHAF.php

Sun, Sea, and Surf!.... :dance: ....!

Me too, I loved the Flight Unlimited series. Half Moon Bay was my favourite airport. Take off, a short hop over the hills and the Bay was under your wings. It also had missions a long time before FSX. Shame it is no longer compatible with my Windows 8 computer........... :cry:

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.
