Virtual Airline.
Picked Thomas Cook as my main airline.
Downloaded the IFDG A320

Going to get onto air-source for my flight schedule.

I thought it was time to start a blog so you could get to know me better.
I'm going to update it once a week. (With my first later this evening)
So I hope your ready for my opinion on things!
Happy flying.
