PanzerFodders Flying Circus...Announcements Board...
brett replied to PanzerFodder's topic in Air Hauler
Nothing more exciting than when the Circus comes to town. Good luck with the new base. Sounds like Louie needs to be punished, maybe send him to the Time Out Corner Cessna -
Nice job. That looks like it will get yer eyeball's roll'in.

The Flying Tiger paint brought back memorys of my military days when the services used the company for their transportation needs. I believe it was a 707, very skinny and small on the inside. On one flight from Iwukuni,Japan to California with stops at Okinowa and Alaska before landing in LAX it stretched out to a very long flight. One stop was an emergengy stop that we diverted to another airbase. I was nervous because of all the patches on the wings and at each stop we had mechanical problems causing long delays. I was happy to get into a newer commercial aircraft for my redeye flight to New

Things sure are looking good up the Creek, save some work for the little guys in the area. -
I have always enjoyed watching these real flight videos and they make good procedure tutorials for sim flying. It was a beautiful time of day for your return flight and showed up nice in the vid. Great angle on the shots with a good forward view and still have the ability to watch the gauges. Btw The landings looked good, you make a better pilot than fly hunter.

Great Ray, thanks or clarifying that. I downloaded it but the explanation in the readme made it sound (at least to this dimwit) that it was made to work with just the Horizon scenery so I didn't chance it and gave it the boot. It sounds very well made and thought out and I will give it another visit. It's folks like you that keep this sim humming.

I agree with you Joe. They had class then and now look like flying poster boards.

You write better than me and I am a fifty-five year old native. Thats the way to run a tight ship. Keep going like you are and you will be a billionaire before long.

It's funny, I read the whole thing but all I saw was that darned good looking home boy David is flying with darling sweet Emily. Keep it small, work hard(not so much playing around) and fly 'em yourself, is my annoying motto. If you need borrow some money just let me know. As far as your new float base, and I'm sure you don't need advice from a beginer in this buisness, but you could always sell 1 hour rides to the tourists for some extra cash and keep the girls busy when you move on to the next hire. All in all, I hope you know that myself and SoHigh Air Services, "where low cost and r

Thanks John, I'll give that a whorl. It's a nice feature to have working. AH has so many features it's hard to take it all in at one time. Edit That was it John, thanks a bunch. Nothing like asking the experts. Some of the actual data is hard to find and conflicting when you do find two or more sources. I think it would be best for me to make a test run in perfect weather and record the fuel usage myself. I did notice you have posted, on the procedure, in another thread on how to do this and will give it a try. I could even use the MEBAR test flight for the test. I also found this online ca

Those repaints are a amazing. The paint chips, stains, colors and wear are superb. I'm not up on the history of these aircraft but I'm sure you have them spot on. If you don't mind me saying, you are truley talented.

Thats some fancy flying Peter. Any passengers would have been reaching for the b**f bag. I hope you used the walkaround feature in Flight to check for any stress fractures after that ride.

Sorry for starting another topic here, can anyone say I use M$ Explorer9 I believe. Google toolbar spellcheck works over at the Aerosoft forum but I couldn't check it in Avsim because I haven't reentered my login since they made the change requiring a new signup just for the forum(I didn't do this because I thought they made the change because of the Flight fiasco, just being a rebel to spite myself ). When I hit the spellcheck here, it makes all the text disappear in the window. Any help with this would be apreciated Joe and thanks for the reply. I used MS Word the other day and almost -
Question? Can this scenery package be used with plain old default scenery also?

That was a great party Mr,B, I don't remember much from that nite and wondered why my back hurt and my clothes were a mess. Nothing like free booze to make you forget. That Emily is a toe curler for sure. I'll be sure to drop by Darrington one of these days, Sabre and take you up on your offer. I have flown over it a few times but haven't had a job send me there yet. Some folks would be offended when you complement their Beaver, but not me, thanks Mr. Fodder. She's a sturdy work horse for sure. BTW I forgot to metion that I was promoted to 2nd Officer. *******************************

A couple of the prettiest sunrises I have seen in screenshots. Thanks for posting these for my viewing pleasure.

Company update for SoHigh Air Services Well it's been a little more than a week since opening my new company. I flew the C172 for seven days and had enough. Granted its a fine AC but even with an engine improvement it was a bit boring and slow. One thing it was good for was it's ability to land smoothly with no load damage while in use. I missed flying my dh2 so went out on a limb and leased a sweet Beaver with tundra wheels(Aerosoft). Much nicer to fly in, with a big load handeling ability. Sold the C172 as there was no need for it. I have kept most of my flights to a limit of about 150nm fo

Thats a good story. I find real life drama just as or even more exciting than fiction. I could just picture that little guy running loose in the plane.

Congrats to all the prize winners. A nice topping on the cake after flying a fun rally. A big thanks go out to SimStop,com for providing the prizes.

I'll tell you what I could really use here, is the ability to use my Google toolbar spell check. For some reason this is the only site it does not work on and I am a horrible speller. -

I like the first post at the top of the page. If I have been following the thread and am familier with it I just hit the End button on the keyboard and scroll up a bit to see the last post. Sometimes I like to start at the begining and scan or reread them from top to bottom , it's just easier for me. Sites that do have the last post at the top, I usually change it so it is reversed again(if they have that option) I guess it is just a personal preferance and having the option, to do as you please, at the bottom of the forum page, is nice to have.(see flightsim forum for example) I also have a -
It didn't look anywhere near as beautiful as what I saw in your pic's but I have a good imagination plus your visual aids made for a good trip. I like to look over my flight areas using the hybred selection in Google map and see what things really look like. There were roads and the lakes to use as guidence for the flight. Must have been exciting having to alter your flight plan due to the wind and weather and land on the shorter runway. That is one big airport, quite a taxi from parking spot 1 to the threshold of 23.

Looked so good I decided to fly it myself, just happened to have the Warrior in my hanger. Thanks for showing your route, that along with PlanG and on on my way....

Saw them in the background and figured it was the final, under the table payment plan for the jet. -
I guess Mr.B is in a really good mood, nothing like a relaxing weekend. Sounds like a fun party to crash, I have a load going to the area, maybe I'll just sneak in once everyone is tipsy...........
