QUOTE (emfrat @ Aug 28 2014,9:18 AM) Yes, Ian, but the time between WTFIT? and "BANG!" is considerably reduced /ohmy.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :o border= 0 alt= ohmy.gif /> /biggrin.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :D border= 0 alt= biggrin.gif /> I remember just after Sputnik, a sci-fi story which centred around an underwater satellite, larruping through the oceans at 27,000mph...!! I could imagine the swath of death and destruction of the marine life and the greenies really going of their nutters.

Pretty dang impressive, amazing to think only a couple of years between the both types and evening the bombing mech's used in WWII was not that much different than when the 'Black Buck' mission hit Stanley.

QUOTE (Ian Warren @ Aug 15 2014,11:24 PM) Well wouldn't ya think 'aircraft' or 'technical' issues would have been more appropriate Nope, was just a random event. This aircraft is quite a quirky thing. More so than I am used to with previous aircraft.

QUOTE (Splitpin @ Aug 15 2014,5:15 PM) Thanks for the advice etc guys .... just to add insult to injury, i got an email ! telling me my job is over at the end of the month. After 2 years and endless call outs , no weekends etc, i thought a warning phone call may have been nice ....ahhhh the corporate world . There are other contracts coming up , and i knew this one would end ... but not until november . Im in two minds now , do i hang around and wait , or look to other outfits. To be honest any feelings of loyalty are pretty thin at the moment. Back is no better .... still...

QUOTE (emfrat @ Aug 15 2014,2:08 PM) The Earth Simulations stuff is indeed very good, but it is not exactly cheap, and can be very hard on framerates. The New Zealand-produced stuff I have is just as good, better on FRs and better value. So there! /tongue.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :P border= 0 alt= tongue.gif /> I did point out they have some free stuff too, 4 pages of it /tongue.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :P border= 0 alt= tongue.gif />
