Thanks collin, and Phil.. @Phil... I think that goes for my father too... he�s already started talking about a RC Car, for Kasper of course :biggrin:

And one more EA-6B Prowler

Hi everybody. As promised in another thread heres a few screenshots from my new computer. This has taken some time to get sorted, since computer time has been severly hampered in favour of changing diapers and catching up on some much needed sleep :biggrin: But, after almost a fourthnight, I have finally managed to get FSX and all add-ons installed. Decided to start up a brand new AirHauler company, so the shots are from the frist couple of deliveries in and out of my home base on Alderney. Climbing out at dusk, heading due south to mainland France. And as usual I forgot to turn on the land

Thanks for your kind words every one.. this really is a place full of great and friendly people.. We were finally given premission to go home this morning, so since about 2 hours we are now back home. @John: Pictures.. well sure. At the moment I only have one on the laptop, so you'll have to make do with what I have... Little Kasper was about 6 hours old when I took this photo..

Saturday morning at 5:46 me and my wife got a little son (and a future FS-pilot prehaps ). He was 52 cm long and weight 3,6 kg when he came out... I'll leave it up to you guys to convert that into imperial measures We're still stuck at the hospital. There's a few issuses with my wifes blood values that needs to be sorted out before we get to go back home, but nothing serious...

Nice looking plane.. What kind of cargo capacity do you get in it. I have been thinking about getting it for a new, channel isles based, Air Hauler company...

On the registration page it says "This competition is open to residents of the UK, Channel Islands, Republic of Ireland and Isle of Man only. See the Terms and Conditions for full details." So, not only the UK since Ireland was included too.. missed that part. But mainland eurorpe is a no go :smile:

darn.. can't join in the fun since I'm not living in the UK Good luck to you all..

From what I saw on the news last night the weather isn't helping the rescue operation much.. Heavy clouds and/or fog in the area....

A bit late, but better late than never.. Happy Birthday Rob.. Hope you had a good one....

The main reason I ask is because I once had some issuses when I installed a Terrain Mesh and a Land Class for the Azores that didn't work to well together.. Ended up with lakes going up the walls of a crater, a funny but not to nice looking effect

Promise I'll get some shots up as soon as I have the new rig up and running... Have been thinking about getting Ultimate Terrain X Europe to further enhance my FSX experience, but I have a question. Does anyone know if it works well together with FS Global, or will the FS Global terrain mesh mess up the landclass-files in UTX?

Well, I went ahead and ordered a new computer, the old one will live on as a pure office computer, and my wife should be able to run her old favorite Age of Empires 2 on it :biggrin: Got a spare HD (500 GB samsung Spinpoint F3 550 GB SATA/300) and my new Graphics Card (XFX ATI RADEON HD 5770 with 1GB memory) to use in it, and with a i7-860 (2,8 Ghz socket 1156) as base for it I should get a pretty good bump up in preformance from the Core2Duo I have today. I havn't got the complete spec for it but if I remember correctly we choose a Gigabyte motherboard (GA-P55A-UD3 i think) and 4Gb of low la

Great captive story and some very nice shots Brian.. Where can I get my hands on that UAV, or is that info on a need to know basis :biggrin:

Hi Sputnik... Judging by your shots my case is as close to dust free one can get it :biggrin: I do think it's my Motherboard or the RAM that is the problem in this case.. When the computer was new everything worked fine with all memory related BIOS-settings on AUTO, but along the way it most have stopped reading the info on the RAM in a correct way because all of a sudden it dropped the voltage to 1.8, and set the memory timings all wrong. The settings the MoBo sets when i AUTO-settings are the once to be used if it's a single RAM installed but what's really there is a pair, so I'm guessin

@ rosario.. Makes me proud to be a swede when someone choses two liverys from the swedish airforce for this competition.... Guess I should go home and dig up some italian paintjobs just to be fair

Congrats on a great shot.. And looking at your fire I think we now know where that Ash cloud really came from

Number 5 & 6 are my favorites... But if I remeber correctly the competion where number 6 was entered, there was another one with the same plane that I thought was even better...

"There is no baton here!" :dance2: Great shots, and a very entertaining post...

Great story, and superb shots... :dance2: love the slight blur in them...

Yes.. that's the first thing I did when the problems started... also gave it a lookover yesterday, and no visable dust in any fans or inlets... Did play around a bit with the BIOS-settings last night and found some settings that felt wrong... the big issue most likely beeing to low voltage to the RAM... cranked it up to 2.2V in accordance with the memory spec and things felt much more stable... havn't tried FSX yet though... Also played with SpeedFan and logged what temps were available to me in the program, and nothing that felt out of the ordinary.. highest temp was AUX (not sure were tha

Never mind my question on Northbridge temp.. found out that my MB doesn't report that anywhere... The suggested way to find out if it's to hot is to put your finger on the heatsink.. and if you can't keep it there for more then 15 seconds it's "probably" overheating....

New GFX board installed (XFX ATI RADEON HD 5770 with 1GB memory). Looked promising at first, could run GTA IV for about an hour without problems. But after turning up the settings for the board things went bad again... And to make things even stranger my FSX preformance went down the drain.. got about 7-10 FPS with serious stuttering at a default airport in the Flight 1 Mustang I'm going to try a complete reinstall of the darn thing before giving up on it. BTW, does anyone know of a good way to get a temperature reading from the Northbridge on the MB, just to rule out overheating... CPU an

Looks good, but I can't help to wonder what would happen if the leader has to abort his take-off.....

Great post Jack.. Aa usual you got a few laughs out of me
