mine is accually Daver,,,,,,but prosero/delphi chat made me ad "oo" to it so it stuck as Daveroo.....but someone called me and idiot a week or so ago and ive changed my chat nic to ID 10 T in honour of the fool and the joke about the kid telling his nieghbor the problem with his computer was an ID 10 T error......
 
....Couldn't think of anything catchy, clever, or meaningful. So,...when all else fails,....jus' use your first and last name.
 
Kinda created mine out of desperation.

At the time I was flying a lot of combat flight sims (War), loved horses and P-51 Mustangs (Horse). And I was born in 1947.
Too logical. I'll go to my room now. :ernae:

I have a great story behind it ...

.... my mom gave it to me! :engel016:

Mom gave me mine too. It's my initials....TC transfigured.

However, I go by my middle name, which is something else my mother did (my first name is a family name, my middle name is what my mother wanted).

I also used to have a cat named TeaSea....which my wife named after me.

My Limited Liability Company is also TeaSea.
 
My two most enduring passions, aeronautics and paramedicine. 202 cause 201 other people had the same passions. Who'd a thunk it.
 
I got mine back in the mid 90's, I was working at an electronic's retailer and we were just starting to sell computers, I was the only one in the company who had any idea how to turn one on let alone use it. When the local phone company tech arrived to set-up our "Dial Up" internet connection (now this was at the blinding max speed of 14.4K, and www stood for "World Wide Wait"), he installed a dedicated line but could not configure the connection program (SLIP - yeah that long ago). I offered to help and he asked if I knew anything about it, I told him I had signed up in 1991 and knew a little (I had been the 7th public internet user in the province) I helped him figure it out - he said when we finished "your little is a Gigabyte more than my knowledge, and I am trained on this stuff", the staff latched on to the name and it stuck like stink on dog dodo...
 
Well, mine is pretty simple. My friends, most of whom are not R/W pilots unlike myself have always called me Flyboy. I originally got the user name from my Flightsim membership - originally intended to be Flyboy203, referencing to my time served in VFA-203, and at the time I was looking to log some real amphib time - in the Cessna 208 Caravan, with the possibility of flying Beavers in Alaska ... For some reason, and I have never heard of him since, the user name Flyboy203 was already taken ...

So there ya' go ....

Mike :salute:
 
I got mine from when I first started using forums on a model car site. I do most any kind of model building, and my wife came up with it.

I know, kinda corny, I'll go back to my corner now.
 
As i came home from my 4 years duty in the german military i started to work in a big chemical company here in my region. During my time in the military i stumbled across mediveal reenactment and came close to the viking times. I started as viking reenactor. One evening, i was working in the company for 6 weeks or more, i talke with a coworker about that vikings. He asked a lot things and i was glad that i can give him a lot of good answers. I had a long beard and longer hair as i started to work there. So my coworker looked at me and mentioned that i remind him of Halvar from the cartoon Vicky and the Vikings. The number 342 is the number of the Bataillon i served. I choosed that as i started with online flying and so many other "Halvars" where flying around.
Thats the little story behind the name. But less people call me Halvar or so, most time only people i fly sim with them.

Great story.

I may well have seen N2056 v1 many times. My family moved to the Big Rock area in Santee in 1962, when I was 13. Lived there till 1975. That's about 3-4 miles right off the end of 27R. I was already into airplanes by then, and we used to go out to Gillespie quite often. My stepdad was also on a race team that raced at Cajon Speedway, another reason to be out there a lot.

Lived in El Cajon from 1988-1995, also.
 
Back in the days of the original Thorp it was actually based at Montgomery Field, but from time to time visited Gillespie, so you may have seen it! The old Cajon Speedway is now a big empty field that is slated for airport expansion according to the plans I managed to acquire as an aid to creating an authentic scenery for the field.
