I really don't like flying in these windy conditions.

Thanks Doug. :)

If you like flying from the VC rather than exterior view, you would appreciate the visibility, especially if you had a TrackIR. I don't think I would want to fly the route Steve Fossett took on his last flight though. As much as

this thing drops in a downdraft, recovery would be almost impossible. There were several times I would have been in trouble if I had been at 2000' AGL, as it goes nose down very quickly. But in calmer air, it is pleasure to

fly. It was just not a good day to use real world weather. Maybe I was being punished for staying away from Aussie land so long. ::)
