Hi Marthaj,

It costs 20 Euros...I don't watch frame rates and don't allow mine to go over 15 anyway, but I can say it is smooth to fly in.

BTW I used to be in 85 Sqn Air Training Corps in my youth :-)

Hi StaTik,

Tell them also to look for me.....
Yesterday exactly the same happened to me ;) I thought what the heck, let's dive into those clouds. Well, I did .....

Take care,

thanks for that peter, what rank did you make it to in the ATC and what was it like compared to now?

[petermcleland]

Marthaj,

I reached Flight Sergeant in the ATC. I did my gliding solo for the "A" certificate:-

I also did a Flying Scholarship on Tiger Moths and Chipmunks. As for then and now...well you have better equipment now. We only had single seat gliders so no actual flight instruction...the instructor could only talk to you when you were on the ground. today you have very high performance two seaters :-)
