What is it all about?

Postby Flying Trucker » Thu Apr 01, 2010 6:31 am

Goodly morning all... :)

Full moon in the clear blue sky this morning here, could be a CAVU (clear air, visibility unlimited) day.

Red sky in the morning...aviators take warning
Red sky at night...aviators delight

So what is this "Flying" thing all about anyways?
Why are there so many folks right here for example at Simviation interested in this thing we call "Flying"

Sure can not be because of the Moderators we have.

You don't want to pay a visit to the dungeon Doug.. The debauchery down there knows no bounds.

Thanks. It will take a few days, as I ordered from a company across the big lake to the east to save a few bucks. They ship it to Florida and then it gets shipped here. I think this is the first time I ever ordered something from the UK.

Hi Larry... :)

Even with shipping, customs and the money exchange it was still cheaper to purchase off shore?

Awesome.... :)

Giving you a heads up now Larry, I see you are looking to purchase some new programs for Flight Simming I believe.

Once you get settled in and everything working I am going to be pestering you to no end as I want to upgrade as well.   ;D

I am going to wait to see how you make out with Widows 7, I am sure it can not be worse than Vista.

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

Goodly morning all... :)

Thanks Dave, it makes one wonder when they release something and they do not release it in all configurations.
Otherwise it is a money grab.

P.S. just read eno's post and now I am really confused, what little white area is he right clicking on...I seldom right click anything unless I want a box opened...guess I am getting off topic...but still confused and I have read the whole post

He means the white area in the Scenery Library selection window.

I'm still not sure why right-click would be any different from left-click but he's the one with Windows 7.
