Far away only until AirNZ/Air Asia/Emirates or somebody advertises a cheap deal back home. Still simming though, wherever I am!!

Good skills. I really enjoy this mag but it is becoming increasingly hard to find.
Remember the 50-50-90 rule. Anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there's a 90% probability you'll get it wrong!

There is dairy near AKL airport that sells it and always has extras – but he charges an arm and a leg for it. The one on Kirkbridge Road next to the Indian restaurant. Haven't bought one from him in a few months.

Pretty cool!

I had a subscription up until a couple years ago when I lost interest.
It seemed that more often than not the majority of an issue would simply be filled with cheesy/campy simulator "flight stories" and self-narration rather than helpful reviews and news. Still, it's certainly a nice gesture for them to offer an issue for free!

A little off topic, has anyone got the August issue of PC Pilot yet? (i.e. is it out?) There is an article of a flight over NZ with VLC but wanted to make sure it was out before I announced it smile.gif

Hmmm, The offer is still valid but I have registered and added it to the cart and it says that it will add it a zero cost. When I check out it is charging me $4.95 and wants my credit card number...

Anyone else have problems?

It must be out there, as I've had a couple of queries this morning.
