It is a very good book, ideal for beginners like me or those wanting to brush on a few skills. Sadly I did not do the book justice.

Sorry I can now see what CC was getting at. Yes you can land the SIM okay. Whilst we were watching the instructor on Sunday he landed a night time flight at Heathrow. it looked amazing with the light coming up at you and then touching down. -

Sorry CC, why are you biting your tongue, have you had a bad experience with this? Not sure I understand the second question however you can land the jet in the simulator, I think the web site said you have a choice of 20 destination airports. -
I thought the following may be of interest to those of you living, or planning to visit the UK. I took my grandsons on the Emirates Cable Car yesterday that leaves from the O2 Arena, travels over the Thames and into East London, you can stay on if you want and come back as we did. As we exited the cable car the guy said our tickets now allow free entry into the "Aviation Experience" next door. I will not go into to much detail so here is a link http://www.aviation-experience.com/ It is well worth a visit and the real simulators look great, they have 4 there

Dovetail Flight School Released!

Spot on John, I knew what I was buying as well, as you know I am still considered a newbie to this game and the thought of a "Flight School" appealed to me so I could use it alongside FSX.

I found this on Youtube posted by Jordan King I will take a look when I get home and you might want to share it at your club? -
Dovetail Flight School Released!

I had my first lesson in Flight School last night and I have to be honest I am not that impressed. I do not have a SIM dedicated PC so it is not the best however it copes very well with Steam and FSX, SE. However Flight School was laggy, jumpy, missing parts of the picture and all sorts of other problems. My Saitek controls were very slow to respond in Flight School as well. Due to the above problems my first take off was awful however the instructor congratulated me and said I had passed and could move on to the next level. I found this surprising as I was expecting him to say som -

APPLE DOES IT AGAIN!! Apple computers announced today that it has developed a computer chip that can store and play Hi Fi music in women’s Breast implants. The iTit will cost between $499 and $699.00 depending on speaker size. This is considered to be a major breakthrough because women have always complained about men staring at their tits and not listening to them. -
Happy Birthday Alan, great story about the surnames. Mike

Looking at the early comments/reviews on Steam this is not being well received. Shame because they have had enough time to develop the product. Mike -
I am not sure if it is the angle the picture was taken at but the pedals look a little too close together to me. Mike

Thanks Brett, the sad thing is I am the boss but we are so busy at the moment I feel guilty playing around on here whilst all the staff are run off their feet. Still needs must
