    Cool Speedbird B707

    Shown taking off from Glasgow with some building storms. I was wondering why she was accelerating so slowly. Turns out, I forgot to release the parking brakes!

    Very nice shots Tyler.
    The pilot is bound only by his mind and his machine. We must expand the mind before we expand the machine, and by expanding the mind, we may expand the machine. Our mind is being expanded by the sim. It is not a game.

    I was wondering what that smell was. Burnt rubber it is!! Well you're in luck, Dave's tyre center is having a deal!! Since you're a friend, you get a discount. I think I still have a bunch of Jan's old tires, those will look nice on your bird .

    Great shots amigo, hope you have a lovely Sunday!!
    Take Care,
    Dave

    Tyler, nice shots - I was going to suggest Dave as a mechanic for you, but you will probably see he all ready offered a deal - just don't mind the "Pink Wall" instead of "White Wall.." Oh, and he can probably replace your parking brake as well.

    I did that in the real world when I drove Armored trucks once....not a good thing to do .
    It's not a good thing when you're going to go down the road, and when you stop, the big blue cloud behind it...

    Now you know why I do computer stuff, it's much safer...
