• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Post 16 Update

    Post 17 Warning

FSX competition for all you hotdog pilots.

FR Super Cub Ultra is on the approved 'bush class' list, so it should be clear which plane to take to the competition. Other planes have no chance whatsoever :icon_lol:
 
Interesting the Aerosoft Wilga is not on the list. I sent a note suggesting the CH BF-108 Taifun...that thing will almost compete with the J-3 when lightly loaded. In the RV, I wonder if you set the fuel load to 1/4, set pilot weight to that of an anorexic midget, it might get up pretty quickly lol.

Cheers

OT: I had the opportunity to make the acquaintance of a 'Dwarf', or little person as some refer to them as about a month ago. When I first noticed his size, I was like, huh? Then I thought to myself, OK, why not.
As time passed throughout the day I got to physically 'meet' this person and shake his hand. Great guy. Like most people he was very easy going with a 'happy-go-lucky' demeanor.

I'm 5' 11". He was 3' 9". A little awkward looking down when we were conversating, but a very neat person all around. :icon_lol:
 
This looks like something I'd be interested in. This weekend isn't good, but I think I'll register for future events. Various competitions would bring the on-line piece back in vogue.
 
Good-day,

An update to this thread;
The Event is taking place on Saturday the 13th. Registration is now closed for this event, however, we assure you the 'weeding' process will probably be a bit lighter on our next event. We are teething on the whole structure, and setup of such a diverse group. The good news is, we are having an absolute blast, and meeting some really great people, and pilots alike.

A2A Simulations is generously providing prizes, and from talking to the guys, it looks like there is already some fierce rivalry taking place!

The STOL bird of choice seems to be the Flight Replicas Cubs, either the Ultra, or the Experimental 210hp. Take note of the preliminary practice results;

Practice results from Sat. the 6th posted HERE.

'Teaser' Screenshot gallery of practice, HERE.

The event this upcoming Saturday will be broadcast LiveStream. It begins at 1200 Pacific Time.

Any input from the SOH community is highly valued. Please chime-in with your observations, comments, and criticism. FASA staff members have been working pretty hard to see that this event takes place smoothly, with much enjoyment for those involved.

Best of the best to you all!
Joseph
