Just saw a harrier fly over my house (Because i live pretty near cosford EGWC) and re-enacted it. It that just me being sad or do other people do it as well?

Build a man a fire and he'll be warm for a night. Set a man on fire and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.

No comment.


Actually, this is something that I used to do quite often, but then when we started our VA, I started flying those flights more than anything.
Great edit, Bob.


Google it.

Sure!  If I had each aircraft I saw going over my house, I'd probably do each flight as I saw it.  Unfortunately, I can't identify them all the time, and they don't stick around for a photo shoot! ;)

This is the painful part of the simulation. I start flying known flights over known places. I then meet other known flights in which I have been as a passenger in real life (I am not a real life pilot). I want to fly those as well. I reach known destinations and I see known airport structures (it's never enough) and there come the simulation limits: you cannot see real airport personnel, real people living around airport etc. I think I am already obsessed...
The funniest thing is that I had no interest at all for FS about 6 months ago and now I spend hours daily...

If I can stop myself flying RTW I have nearly all the aircraft types that fly out of my local airport.

So when I get bored with RTW ::) I can become a bus driver ;D

Cheers

Red on White you're alright.

Red on Red you'll soon be dead.

I get off real planes and fly the sim back the way I came. ;)
