Got our reports of the first semester two or so days back and guess what... I got Honor Roll!! :)

Yeah, got all level sixes n sevens (level seven is the highest in the International Baccalaureate Diploma) so I got some extra cash to spend.. . some of it goes to payware.. :)

Check out my new plane!

Looks great!

The virtual is pretty nice aswell

Very nice frame performer!! Addon Aspen scenery, Full settings, highest res, full traffic, three layers of clouds, yet still sticks faithfully to the locked 30FPS, inside or outside the aircraft!

This is just a test, gonna actually read the manual in a while.. ;)

Wow, she's "fly"! ;D

Gongrats on your results, nice one! Nice looking plane but you didn't actualy say what it is or who by! I'm guessing some sort of Tucano?

I've had it too for a while...it's fantastic...and yes...she does perform well....I took her around in Chicago with the Fly-Tampa Midway scenery, 100% traffic, 2 layers of dense clouds, and my sim completely maxed out...got a very healthy 19FPS....I would think that's fine seeing as your card is alot better than mine.... ;)

Yeah, but all of the components of the rig are extremely important to performance, including the motherboard which I chose especially for the card, processor etc.  :)

Thanks for the comments!  8)  :)

Congratulations on making the "Honour Roll".  Oh yeah, great pics.  There is something more important than Flight Sim.  It's education

As far as I'm concerened they're both equal. :D
No, joking there, education is [slightly] better and [slightly] more pleasing than Flight Simming. ;)

Great pics there Alpha! 8) :)
