Gosh - It's been 2 weeks since I last departed and that was just some leisure flying in the Extra 300S - I'm waiting on a VGA card to come and spark some life into the sim. My father is currently in the United States on some business, and he said he'll see what he can find over there. I learned that the prices there are a lot better than they are here. I'm constantly visiting the forums, but I find that with me being grounded, I have nothing to talk about. Well, my father should be back next wednesday, so by Thursday, I should have it up and running. I can't wait till I hop into my 767 and take to the skies Very Happy -

I'm sure it will - Thanks Greekman. I wonder what my first flight's going to be. I bet that knowing myself, I'll take a heavy across the atlantic, something like a KLM 767 flight from EHAM to Detroit. Fun Stuff. This sim really has an impact on every day life.

Watch out the real time flights...if you fall asleep and you have enable the auto refuel there a lot of chances to find your plane drifting somewhere over Mongolia... Wink

I'll be sure to analyze and plan my flight accordingly with time. Thanks for the tip. All I need now is a VGA card -

Well astrosteve, my father seems to agree with the fact that I need a new VGA card, so that makes the selecting process a lot easier. He recently went to Dallas on some business, and so in his spare time, or when he's free, he often goes out to electronics stores. I asked him to have a look around, and so he's going to decide which prices are decent, and which video cards to just veto. We might not stick to the plan, but I'll let you know what he digs up. He should be returning on Wednesday.
