  1. Yup, one very good reason to stay flying a desk!
  2. Fantastic now if only you supported X-plane =) Oh and welcome to the hanger.
  3. Make the transaction to Win 10 I certain find it on of the best Windows OS I've used. FSX:SE unfortunately is locked to DX9(and preview DX10). You will need to move to a new Sim platform like P3D v4 or X-plane to take advantage of newer graphics capabilities. Plus moving to v4 or XP means no more out of memory errors!
  4. Be nice when we get weather like this in X-plane =) (assuming ActiveSky on P3D)
  5. Yes =) I've not got x-plane 10 but love 11. Interface is so much nicer for a start. Ooos sorry for the necro thread reply. @Jammerjonnthere's a few of us her running XP11, check out some of @wains threads.
  6. Wow great job there. I've always thought of doing a home cockpit but there's too many different planes I like to settle on just one =)
  7. Wow very cool shots. I agree with @brett, the Burgh Island Hotel looks like a great place.

    XENVIRO

    That joystick @wain by all reports is fantastic. I've been following VKB, the producers of that stick, for a while now and they have an excellent rep. Want to replace my x52 pro with their Kosmo stick when it comes out.
  9. I'm probably going to get this wrong but is that a DC3 interior?
  10. Nah @wain just wants to know how fast his frames are =) it's not on by default. I'll echo everyone else mate, nice shots. I am looking at SkyMaxx and xEnviro and am curious what has made you swap to xE as those clouds look gorgeous!
  11. Really looking forward to my own tour of PNW now. Will have to get the Beaver shipped up from New Zealand once I finish my NZAR run. Might have to pick it up in the C-17 and fly it over. Talk about long haul! NZAA - KSFO O.o
  12. Hey Loic, is the boat driving a FSX/P3D thing?
  13. Wow take care there Alan. Need you bringing in those sweet screenshots =)
  14. Assuming this is FS:X/P3D?
  15. Funny you should say that @wain as I was thinking about doing a mini tutorial on it and I think you just convinced me.
  16. Just remeber to read the licence as you might not be able to use this for entertainment and must only be used for educational purposes. So as long as you're learning something...
  17. GAAR 2016 Leg 07 Julia Creek YJLC to Longreach YLRE Surprisingly the rain stuck around overnight and our 0730 start from Julia Creek see 12Kn winds from 065 and we are headed to Longreach via Winton. Once again, the GAAR calls for a stop at Winton, but it's only marginally bigger than Normanton so I think we'll fly overhead and wave and keep on trucking to Longreach. This time I decided I would use the tow and after a couple of restart whilst I figured out how to use the darn thing we rolled out onto the runway.. They didn't actually have a tug on st
  18. GAAR Leg 06 Normanton YNTN to Julia Creek YJLC A couple days in Normanton is MORE than enough to cure ANYONE of home sickness and you will WANT to leave (unless you REALLY like the fishing, like my Dad). So we're are fueled and ready to go at 0800 local and HOLY COW IT'S RAINING! Seriously, in "Tropical North Qld", summer time is commonly known as the Rainy Season, or Crazy Time as everyone just gets hotter and hotter and hotter until it bursts. It's not uncommon in the middle of Summer (and for the GAAR this leg was supposedly run on Feb 16) to be hitting 49C (120.2F) and 90%
  19. I did pick this little fella as I thought to maybe do some screenshots as I flew around Normanton, you know, point out the 16 pubs ( well there's only 4 now ) but considering there are more Humpback Whales living in the Pacific than there are humans living in Normanton... there's really not much to see... And to quote the great Luke Skywalker (Jedi Knight) from Return of the Jedi: "I used to live here you know..." ... What worries me is Han's reply.
  20. GAAR 2016 - Leg 05 Mornington Island YMTI to Normanton YNTN This leg was kind of special and sentimental to me since I actually grew up in Normanton (well my first 3 years of High School) and my folks lived there for several years and have now returned there after many years away and apart. So feelings... Departure from Mornington was scheduled for 1500 local time, so we had time for a swim and a fish before we left. Winds were mild at 14Kns from 045 but pretty much nothing short of a Cyclone is going to worry Big Bird. The actual GAAR calls for a touch
