Hi all. I've just joined this exciting forum because of a strong interes in aviation ;) Currently I am using FS9 on an older computer.
I have recently retired, and decided my retirement project is to build a GA flight simulator. Phase I is get a high end computer built and tuned, then hopefully get a box to put it in ;) My first flight was in the front seat of an Aeronica Champion to do a "bomb drop" (sack of flour) for my uncle at a fly-in. (Probably around 1958 or so). And I have been hooked ever since. I am an active RCer and computer programmer in my work life. I can never get a PPL because of medical issues, so the next best thing is a good simulator. (Gas is cheaper too :roll:)
