FS Logbook

I was digging around in my backups HD and found my FS9 logbook from 9-25-03 when I started using the logbook to 9-21-04 when I did my first re-install. I use the logbook to record flights that were more than about 10 minutes in length or for first flights in new aircraft no matter how short. Included in this one was my first flight around the world in dcc's XP-38 Prototype and a flight from Barrow Alaska to the southern tip of South America in Bill Lyons' Sikorsky S43 that I'd forgotten that I flown. The logbook totaled 383.6 hours of fun in a year's time.

It got me to thinking and I checked my current logbook file. I don't know what happened to the one from 9-21-04 to 9-26-05, but the current one started 9-26-05 and continues to last night for the past 5 years. In it's 2,470.2 hours, there are a few RTW races, lots of online adventures and tons of flights offline.

I think I've got my $50 + payware purchases worth and more out of FS9. Hopefully, I'll get thousands of hours of more fun out of it.
 
Absolutely - you could even throw in the price of a new computer there somewhere, and still be satisfied with the per hour investment.
Not to mention the people, places, and things you come across as a result...for me it's a never-ending learning experience, too.

Wonder why the family think it's a strange obsession? ;)
