FSX is good fun for sure.
Gotta Love HJGB!

Sometimes a challenge comes along...

This one only took three tries...

The nice thing about FlightSim, is not only can you pull yourself out of retirement, but you can bring friends as well!

Hey guys,

Some nice pictures shown so far

I chose to fly the Il-2 Sturmovik flight sim ( purposely made for WWII birds) and for the last three years I've been the leader of the Virtual Horsemen. We are lucky enough to be sponsored and supported by the real team so i figured I'd post a few pics

And our most recent video

Don't know if will "fly", but I'll try. I flew in this airplane and the sim of this airplane on the same day.

The simulation of this plane

If you are not seeing pictures, let me know.

Viewpoint difference because I was in the back seat (with full dual controls) of the real P-40N.

This what got me started on FS9. I've flown in a P-40 and Spitfire, my chances of flying in a real F-104 are slight.
This the "Cloud9" F-104, a paid download, very realistic (I will kill you real fast if screw up). It has random real type failures crop up,
and if you exceed various limits and V speeds things break or jam and you have to deal with it. This thing killed me so many times learning to fly it I was a Soviet ace several times over.

FL620 and Mach 2 just North of Boise.

Ballistic zoom climb after flame out about to arc over at FL840
