Now on the team...

So, I'm now on board the Archangel productions team( Hi John!) with the Airwolf project. Only doing the website up, mind you, as you may have noticed in my updated signature. Or not. If you had, that's either er,er very observant or er, er, you have too much time on your hands.:)

Going around to see what is left

I been looking around the fourm, posted a new thread in commetns, since none were started, so i commetned about the fourums. it is a great place that i enjoy. i don't like it huge like avsim. i like it sortof private and fun. The smaller, not to small, but the size of ours should do. I also saw that many threads were sort of left dead. SO i visted to see what is there. Noting much so i guess better post, since it looks dead, i got to say, this is the best fourm, even though it is the first.

Addons And Use to the fourm

I got to say, this is a nice fourm and gotten use to it. Very nice too and quite good for the first one i with. Also, i got some addons and They are pretty good, most of them recommended by the fourm. It is quite like a familiy. we get to know each other. They post comonly and so do we so then we know each other like family and know what they are like. Though i know some very common people, though they tend to post more, but some don't and i know very well.

I'm back! Really.

Haven't posted here for a while... ages actually. I've been fairly absent from the site since the summer, and I haven't really done much flying or development. I will get that SE5a released... one day.:D I might even get around to finishing the series of aircraft design articles I promised the flightsim team last year...:cool:   The expedition with the photographic scenery went well, by the way. Not that you really care, probably.

Patience , stay with me...

:o   I am in a time of waiting, starting from january I will be saving for a new computer...I hope that my posts in the forum soon will be answered so that I can decide on which yoke I want and need..   I will purchase pedals , and other stuff as I get paid..   It will be a long run, but FS isn´t just a game to me, it´s science, science about aviation.   I´m hoping for getting online and fly together with some serious commercial pilot-simmers..I could even consider taking some time as ATC

Time to refine my flight simulator

I have been flt simming since 1991 and have seen many many changes and ultra new technology over the years. It is truly amazing in the advances of MS Simulators. I am now in FSX including Acceleration Expansion Pack and My Traffic. There atre so many suggestions of how to better my system. I would like to do a complete upgrade of my system. What do you flight simmers suggest for a new computer upgrade. for around $3000. ?? drop in with suggestions.......... Katie

The Sim

Well, I found something new at Beccles Airfield, a IFR simulator dating back to the seventies, I think. :confused: I've had a few goes and it's impressive for the little technology available at the time. It has real instruments and controls, all worked with cables and pulleys with the odd bit of electrical circuit to get everything 'talking' to each other. Me and a fellow employee hope to fix it all up to a computer and enable it to run on Microsoft Flight Simulator with local VFR Photo scenery

Good Things Coming

Most people don't know what goes on behind the scenes at a big web site like this, but one of those things is software development. FlightSim.Com is run on software that we developed ourselves, from the big things like the file library to little utilities that you as a user never actually see working but that do useful things for us. (The one exception to this of course is the message forum software, which is vBulletin, a popular and widely used program).   Well, one of the big things is about

Ungrateful

It's hardly the end of the world but Phil Taylor announced early today that he would be leaving ACES studio and that tomorrow would be his last day.   I was hoping that the people of the wolf packs on the various major FS-related websites might stop feeding on the entrails of living creatures long enough to pay tribute to the man who has helped so many thousands of us enjoy FSX. They could, for example, have said things like "Well, Phil, I may hate you but you surely did give me many hours of

"That Was Nice. Very Nice."

I went grocery shopping yesterday afternoon. (Call Sixty Minutes!) While I was being checked through, the bagger, a young man named Matt, stepped behind me in the line and unloaded the remaining groceries in my cart onto the checkout conveyer belt.   "In all my years of grocery shopping nobody has ever done that for me before", I said to him. "Keep it up and you'll make manager."   "I don't want to make manager" he said. "I'm in college to make petroleum engineer -- it pays a lot better."   "

piracy

Ah, the grand old issue. What's to make of it? Most agree that it's wrong, but after that we enter a debate riddled with heated opinions and vastly different ideaology. Few things are as gray.   What about drinking and driving? That's an easy one to talk about. Even recovering alcoholics and drivers with DUIs on their records will tell you it's wrong to drive after you're up to .08, which for most people is one drink. There are no people waiting in the wings to argue that under certain and/or s

Theories Of Lift

In mathematics there is a proof strategy known as "proof by exhaustion". It works like this:   First you prove that the only possible answers are, for example, A, B, C and D. It being, say, very difficult to treat case D on its own, you could still prove it is true simply by proving that A, B and C are false. This is called proof by exhaustion because at that point you've exhausted all possibilities. D simply MUST be true whether or not the detailed workings of D are immediately obvious.   My

Angle Of Attack Versus Indicated Airspeed

In this blog post we saw that lift derives from the downward acceleration of the relative wind, which has mass. Thus for any given value of indicated (repeat indicated) airspeed, the angle of attack must be the same regardless of altitude.   This is because indicated airspeed is a direct measure of the ram air pressure -- of the rate of air mass flow over the wings. Some confirming experiments in FS will be found here.   xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx   Now ... Proof by simulator generally doesn't coun
