I like this story, the best way to build a business is by getting out there and beating the bushes and that is exactly what Mr. Mercer did. And what a place to do it in, gorgeous part of the world with plenty of opportunity. Thanks Frank, another great video story.
A shame the government took over the flying business, something wrong about that in my mind.
As another side note(s), I always liked the way folks wore suits back then, even when working. Also, anyone else wonder what the inside of that plane smelled like.
Never saw this plane before so looked up some images of inside and out, I liked the way Dh put a small window on the instrument panel so the pilot could see the passengers. Okay, I'm done writing what's in my mind....

Looks like fun, I wish I could do it still today. Even if they could build a flying boat like that today everyone is in a hurry nowadays and they prefer speed over the fun of getting there. Not to mention what it would cost in today's dollars.
Thanks for the views Frank, always enjoyable.
BTW; The post only shows a link.

Could the release of Windows 11 potentially revolutionize flight simulation software, bringing enhanced graphics and performance, and how might this impact the overall flight simulation community?
Hi George, you might want to start a new thread for this question. Maybe the moderators can do this for you, if not it's best to do it yourself.

I have stayed with win10 for a few reasons but I know of others that have upgraded and had no problems with their flight sim MSFS, if you're still using FSX then I can help you because I don't know of anyone using it in Win11. If you are now in MSFS I did find this using Bing,
Windows 11 compatibility with flight simulation software and add-ons is a topic of interest for many aviation enthusiasts. Let’s delve into the details:
-
Microsoft Flight Simulator (MSFS):
- MSFS runs normally on Windows 11, and there isn’t a separate version specifically for this OS1.
- Users have reported a smooth upgrade experience from Windows 10 to Windows 11. The transition is often painless, and the simulator performs similarly on both versions2.
- Some users have encountered crashes to desktop (CTD), but it’s not always clear whether these are related to add-ons or other factors2.
- VR users should be aware that there have been stuttering issues with Windows 11. If you fly in virtual reality, consider checking compatibility and performance before upgrading2.
-
General Tips for Upgrading to Windows 11:
- Ensure you have Windows 11 chipset drivers for your motherboard. Most manufacturers provide these on their support pages.
- If you have flight controls (such as yokes, pedals, or throttle quadrants), let Windows handle them during the upgrade. Many users have reported that their flight controls work perfectly after the transition2.
Remember, upgrading your operating system is a significant step, so it’s essential to gather information and make an informed decision. If you’re satisfied with your current setup and performance, consider waiting until more users have thoroughly tested Windows 11 with flight simulation software and add-ons
If no one else answers this here for you I found many responses from others by copy/pasting your question into my search engine and you might want to check them out.

Thanks Frank, enjoyed seeing those island airstrips.
A couple of those small ones, like Saba, are white knucklers in some planes. Now I noticed you did a couple of bounce and goes in that old Placid Plodder, have done my share in them and I'm pretty sure others have also, although it's like having a baby I've been told, over time you tend to forget about the pain of having one.
So, what do you think of the work MSFS have done around the islands?

I like to watch real pilots flying on youtube, it is surprising how many don't look out their windscreens for other planes in a timely manner.

From what I have seen from the past Joe is very much on top of these spammers, if I see one, I send in a report (top three dots on upper right of the post) and I'm sure others do as well. We should also remember that this isn't a full-time job for Joe and he gets to it when possible, by us sending the reports in it comes to his attention sooner.
Thanks for bringing this up Neil, it's up to the members here to be on top of these buggers, I for one hate them like a plague.
