LOL its a big rhetorical question because it says "How much time do you spend on FS" not flying or anything else hahahaha I would say now that I have a PC that will "hopefully" run FS I will be using it as much as possible or just when I have the spare time but before I get it running it will be alot of work just trying to get everything running smoothly and getting all the good freeware downloads as well which I have been doing lately and that has taken ages as well.

sorry to hear all the problems above - I have used Voz quite a bit and have been really happy with it and got good results - especially around Queensland and South Australia etc where I used to fly in real life. Thanks. I have pretty well solved the problem. For some unknown reason I had the "water effects" on NONE. Moved it to 50% and now the water looks like water!! It was working ok so I am at a loss to know how that setting got back to zero.

I found out that they have stopped the developers award because of lack of interest. Thats ashame because that award has been a real icon in the Flight Simulator world for quite a while.

I just noticed Charl, why are you parking on that stand? there arnt any markings for 757s!! Its funny what you pick up after working on an airport. Very cool little utility, the other thing with it is that you have to buy the credits ofr other airports, thats just greedy I think. It was to test the system, I just picked a spot at random to see if everything would pitch up and connect. It did, since the Marshall stopped me at the right place too. As to the marketing model, I did think it a little strange at first. But I got sucked in by the free demo for the (freeware but absolutely...

X45s good value for money can get them from VR, if moneys no problem then the ultimate HOTAS option would be the Cougar F16 HOTAS with the realistic mod.

You won't want to leave from Boeing Field. Believe it or not No Boeing aircraft have been made there, the heavies (767, 787, 777, 747) are made at Paine Field, and the lights (717, 727, 737, 757) are made at Renton Field both are in the Seattle Area, Renton is in Seattle, but Paine is in Everett (greater Seattle) Actually the 717 was made in Long Beach, California ;) Though those days are long gone :( good point

Lets see how big the final file ends up being. I'm open to distribution ideas, but MSN wont be an option as the final size will be in the 100's of MB's.
