Do you remember the first time you flew a simulator?

Where did you take the first flight from?

I'd be interested in hearing from everyone about this.

Mine was Oakland International in California. RW 27R. Before some of you were born I'm sure.

This isn't from my first flight but it was just like this.

A little different from FS9 and FSX huh? But hey... you could follow a road clear to Reno!

Hehe, my first experience with a flight sim was probably FS95 or 98 when I was about 11 playing on my parent's computer. I hardly knew anything about any of it, I remember getting mad because it would be like a slide show so I'd always crash when I tried to take off.

Oh, and the airport? Meigs field of course 🙂

OOOhhh now that's a toughie, i remember trying to taxi a concorde out at JFK in FS98 and that was probably my first try at flight sim. A bit ambitious, don't you think 😀 !
