Friday 26th February Right guys, to pump a bit of life into this whilst I save for the CDU I'll be holding a small poll. The topic is literally - What Does Jack put into the Pedestal next (after the CDU)? One vote per person, if you change your mind then that's okay. Whatever wins will be installed after the CDU. With all that into account, vote away! Vote here: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=4097

Trust you to ask that Eddie! :blush:

NOTE: Not Trying to turn this into a political argument - Just my opinion Basically, Gordon Brown is only really critised because his party is in power. Of course all eyes will be on him and his party, because they are the ones we see all day, every day through TV/Internet/Radio... The Tories can moan all they want, but if they come into power they'll make mistakes. Then it's their turn to be under the spotlight. If the current government make a mistake, of course it's going to be everywhere and classified as a major fault. If the Tories/Libs make a mistake the amplification of the problem

Hey Joe that's great, glad you got the reg. Interesting content... So things like unusual events, certain landmarks, impressive aircraft? Hopefully if I win some aussie flights FTX won't let me down (it never does)! Regards, Jack

Registered! Joe, forgive my ignorance, but when does the first flight actually depart? (I know bidding window opens tomorrow). Jack

Thanks Phil, just did another Flight tonight from Liverpool to Stanstead. The controller at Stanstead's end was just plain awesome with his vectoring, Liverpool guy was a nice chap too.

Okay lads, have a go at this one: And no comments like "which one is the dog!" . Jack :great:

We Have a Winner. Nice One. it's over to you AA Whe-Hay! Thanks very much Mike! I'll post my findings later tonight :great: ! Jack

Thanks very much Soya, I too just adore that bare metal! McPhat do an incredible job of painting it in.

That sounds like a Soya-Style compliment to me! Glad you enjoyed 'em!

Thanks very much Needles, RB, Hurricane and Mike! Really glad you all enjoyed them! And Mike, it is REX2 I'm using. Cheers guys, Jack

The instructor told me to sink on approach!

Hey all, Just two very quick shots from VatSim today (my first IFR Flight - EGGD Bristol to EGLL Heathrow). I tried to encapture the sky in both, along with the beautiful McPhat repaint. Hope you enjoyed. Jack

Whoa - The biggest question is what the heck is up with the 747 above you! It looks like it's on FIRE!

Whoa nice one Mut! Orbx always get tops marks wherever they go so I'm not surprised with the 9.5/10! Maybe ol' AA could review Aeropelican YPEC sometime :dance: . Jack

Very well thanks TRB, just unfortunately not much progress can be made until the CDU arrives!

Hey Brian that is great news! I wish you the best of luck building your Cessna pit! Are you just going to be buying Modules and using them, or are you planning on mounting the Modules in some sort of home-built panel? :dance:

Heheh! I don't think you're the only one for it either! :dance: There are a million and one charities that we could all do with! I just hope that I get the CDU relatively soon - Not just for me but for you guys too (this forum has the most fantastic support I've ever seen - You guys drive me on!). Jack

Saturday 20th February Unfortunately, not everything that I put up on Ebay sold. I only achieved

Heya Simi, Thanks for the input I'll maybe have a go soon! Jack

I knew Microsoft slipped in a sneak preview of Submarine Simulator in FSX!

It's out:

Yup pre-pay is an option but I think it is the most expensive Orbx region released to date?

WOOOOOOO! IT'S FINALLY HERE! On 28th February 2010 Orbx will release their first non-Australian release - The PNW (Pacific Northwest) Blue Reigon.

Just an update. The CDU doesn't acutlaly take a VGA output - It takes an S-VIDEO/RCA Output. This means I'll need two small and cheaper adapters. The goods news is... Is that I'll (hopefully) be able to implement a WORKING EICAS instead of a dummy unit! Yays!
