hello from Paris France!

Hi everybody;

Thanks for your welcome Paul; I happen to be registered here by chance; I was looking for military addons to implement on an airport (Athens/LGAV) i was more or less improving taking out some errors especially gates numbering. To be honest I'm not interested in military things and also I'm not taking simflight too seriously in the sense that for me it is a game and nothing more which is part of many other hobbies of mine. I had found exactly what I was looking for in the archive of the site but unfortunately the links supplied either were closed or there was an error in their description and to make matters worse the member has left and closed his account at SOH!:banghead:. Anyway it's always interesting to meet new people and I decided to go on here hoping that I will not be too much of a nuisance from your point of you:confused:?

Who am I? A former retired banker from one the major merchant banks in France with a 75% interest in international matters. Age 76. Married, 2 kids. My hobbies: Music mostly classical, Opera, Ballet, reading (at least 3 to 4 books a months with at least one or two in English), I've traveled extensively around the world either for business or pleasure and my favorite trips were in the southwest and some of the northwest States of the USA. I happen to be a rather good and knowledgeable guy as far as Grand Canyon is concerned where I've hiked some 700 miles on foot in the canyon plus other hikes in Utah in Canyonlands and also some slot canyons. Unfortunately I'm no more aloud to hike those astounding sites having endured a severe heart attack and failure last year. Anyway I wrote a book (unfortunately for you in French) about my experiences in the canyon which surprisingly is read by a majority of US readers!? Here is the link if you're interested: http://froggyatgcn.canalblog.com/
Also interested in movies and myself having used cameras since 1955; I use Adobe Creative Cloud to edit my movies (After effects, Premiere Pro and Photoshop). I'm presently editing a short reuniting takes from numerous trips to Pompei and Herculaneum in Italy.

I think that's all there is to say concerning the genius you've already understood I am:adoration:! Who says I'm not ????

One last thing I'm a Parisian and if any of you happen to decide to have a trip in Paris, let me know, I'll be very pleased to help you organize your stay and maybe meet you here. So welcome to :france: and ir's froggies!

I Made it.

Greetings everyone!

I just got my login and abig thanks for granting me posting privileges. I found you all out after a google search for a head on picture of Soloy C-206 sentinel conversion in flight. I fly one and do a little sim too but when I found out someone had written a MK I model I found myself here searching for it. That's when I stumbled across the greatest thing ever! A thread about someone writing a mod for the same version that I fly the MKII.

In the real world I am fortunate to be a Commercial multi-engine land pilot with an instrument rating, High performance, complex, and tail wheel endorsements who's been luck enough to fly Helio Couriers and has over 1400 hours is the Soloy C-T206H. Glad to be here and really excited to see how that model of the 206 comes out! And if anyone knows of a decent digital Helio I'd love to know about it.

Cheers!
 
I'm a new member too, struggling to remember all I forgot, and get back flying in CFS2.
Anyone have advice on attaching images to posts. My posts end up with two images, one on bottom boxed as attachment.
How can I display only one image?

Welcome to all newcomers. :)

Attaching pics is simple; just do not check the "Insert Inline Box" and they will appear as thumbnails to be opened if the reader chooses.

Milton Shupe- Thank you. It worked, but confusing. I see a Photo tab and an Attachment popup window in settings. But don't see how to upload/delete/manage in Photo tab or Attachment window, only while creating/editing a post. I see post with large images, rather than thumbnail boxed attachment style, but hey this works, better than displaying both. I lost 3 post attachments by unchecking the thumbnail, viewing after updating post, single image looked good, but the next day all the posts images were gone.

I notice after 24 hours my post are no longer editable. Is this normal? Or how can I edit an older post to add screenshots?

Posts cannot be edited after a period of time. Simply post again to add screen shots.

The unchecked attachments stay on the system and can be seen when you Edit a post, then Manage Attachments to edit posted ones. Just look at the thumbnails above the current list.

You can delete when editing attachments by putting the cursor over the thumbnail and you will see an "X" in the top right corner of the thumbnail.

You can also drag and drop attachment from top to bottom or just select them in the top group.

BTW, thumbnails in posts allow the thread to display faster and doesn't force users to see the full version if they have no interest in that.
Saves on bandwidth for the site and helps users with slower connection speeds.
 
Milton Shupe- I think what happened is I used toolbar above post editor to insert image, it created both, I edited unchecking attachment thumbnail and saved. The toolbar image insert must not be synced with attachments.
I'm attaching image thru bottom attachment area only, unchecking thumbnail, and clicking insert inline. Lets see if it's linked correctly and is not deleted.

Nope. Tried above, didn't work. If you delete attachment thumbnail after both images are inserted it will remove thumbnail, but regular image will be deleted 1 to 24 hrs as I found out.

Thanks for helping. I got my screenshots up in boxed attachment style.
 
Hello there!

Hello! My name is Daniel, I am 44 year-old, private pilot since '96. I live in northern Italy.
I am writing to thank the people involved in that beautiful C47 add on project
I am flying around South America in my IVAO tours with this gorgeous bird!
Kind regards!

Daniel Sinico.
 
Welcome to the Outhouse, Daniel!
Any questions or comments are always welcome.
We do try to avoid offending people, but sometimes it can wind up unavoidable. Just be gentle :adoration:

pilot2017 saying greetings!!

Thanks!

I am glad to be here. I have been a flight simmer since 2008 in FS2004 and still faithful to the sim. I live in Oklahoma City and a former forklift driver 45yrs old male.

I don't yet have CFS2 and I saw the site kind of supports FS2004 which caught my attention. Very nice warbird collection for FS2004.

About my FS2004 Add-Ons:

Payware from FSPilotshop and PMDG
PMDG 737
Skydecks 737NG v3.15 panel
Zinertek Ultimate Airport and World Environment 2012
FsPassengers (from fspassengers.com)
Captain Sim Legendary 727
Overland Boeing
TweakFPS for FS2004
PSS Boeing 777 Professional (from blackbox website on sale)
FSceneX North/South America
FSGenesis World buffer Mesh and FSGenesis 153m North America Mesh
Carenado 182RGII and Carenado 152 w/Skis (my favorite props)

Freeware: too many to name.

Flight simulation is not the only thing I enjoy. I have a radio hobby. It involves software defined radio, SDR for short. SDR has a very unique ability most conventional radios cannot do because of their very limited IF bandpass and that is ADS-B mode S viewing. ADS-B is a addition to the transponder on aircraft that can transmit plane LAT/LON, heading, airspeed, altitude, callsign, and aircraft ICAO. Also monitoring voice vhf/uhf air traffic. Delta Airlines terminal operates a UHF 460mhz repeater at KOKC I can hear. MY SDR is the low cost RTL-
SDR. So my hobby goes hand in hand with my flight sim hobby. It even helped me have a better gist of how flightaware gets a large chunk of it's air traffic on a map.

My RTL-SDR devices in use are:
NooElec NESDR Smart
Flightaware Pro Stick (orange).

Software:
RTL1090 for ADS-B
HDSDR for terrestrial radio and data monitoring.
Unitrunker for monitoring local police using both dongles.

I like to make friends in the sim hobby. Looks to me like this is a very polite and kind community with plenty of knowledge to share and I want to reciprocate. I am very happy to be here.

Other things I enjoy is watching some live streams on Twitch.tv. I am all over the place watching a variety of streamers. I also play other games like Clash Royale and Zen Pinball 6 Star Wars tables on mobile. :wavey:

Thanks

Hello dear virtual pilots mates !!

Hello Sim-Outhouse community !

My name is John "Kalon" HAIST and I'm new to the forums so let me introduce myself !

I'm 37 years old and I live in South West of France, I may say I'm a simmer till I was 8 as my very first sim was F-16 Combat Pilot on Atari ST :biggrin-new:. I can remember the 200+ pages manual and the complexity of the sim compared to the other fighters "sims" I had at the same time (I mean Fighter Bomber :very_drunk:).

Nowadays I'm soooo glad computers are so fast that they can offer us really great sims.
I mostly fly on falcon BMS where I have about 800+ flight hours. But I admit I couldn't resist when DCS Black Shark KA-50 and DCS A-10C went out so I bought'em and now I'm hesitating between DCS F-18 and the Mirage 2000 (yeah I'm french and IMO Mirage 2000 is really a great plane :sentimental:).

And finally I fly sometimes on P3D with the nice freeware planes Dino Cattaneo offered to the virtual pilots we are :mixed-smiley-010:. I owned VRS TP and F-18 but my licenses expired and I don't know if I'll renew it now, I'm way too busy with DCS and BMS :playful:. But I must admit that with all the new planes that are TP compatible and FSX@War finally out, things are beginning to be really interesting on P3D and FSX side !!

Have a nice day everyone !!

Best Regards from France :wavey:
 
New to forum but not to FS

Hello everyone! Joined up yesterday and want to introduce myself. Names Brian 34 years old. Live on the east coast of the US. Spend most of my time flying in Europe. I have been playing FS since FS95. I have flown with various VA's over the many years. I fly everything from fixed to rotorary wing aircraft. I have over 1500 flight hours confirmed and god knows how many unconfirmed flight hours. Of course like most, I have many of favorites that I always seem to go back to.
I'm a huge WWII buff and enjoy just about anything WWII related.
I am currently looking to join a VA/club that centers there VA around WWII era. If you have any suggestions they are much appreciated.

Cheers,

Brian
 
Hello There!

Hi all

I am 'new' around here, having recently moved and got a new setup. I have flown FS9 for many years and still prefer it to all subsequent developments. Having put together so much beautiful scenery, with Lago sounds and so many other tweaks, I will stay with the sim I have built, tweaked and loved for well over ten years.

I enjoy detailed airline flights, with Radar Contact RCV4 acting as IFR Controller and Flight Deck Companion modelling the crew, and also bush flying, with FSCargo handling the assignments.


My favourite sceneries are the Washington area Georender Series, with all the Lago bells and whistles, perfect for bush plane and helo trips. Alongside those the 'Mega-Airports', mostly by Aerosoft, Fly-Tampa and others, with the full AES Support (all the little support vehicles, buses, tankers and moving jetways). I usually need a totally clear evening for the medium haul but a quick random bush to bush airstrip with the MAAM-DC3 (with the Real_Engine addon) is also hard to beat!


I wish to thank all contributors to sim-outhouse, my favourite place on the net. Its a great repository for all the best FS9 designers. Each visit brings wonderful new discoveries. The quality and presentation of such superb work is very much appreciated and keeps my sim freshly invigorated.


I love what you have done with the place!


Many thanks

hello

Hi all im Luke, Live in New Zealand and I'm a big fan of CFS3 and aviation in general. be nice to meet others who are also intrested in the subject and its nice to see that simulators are not dying out completely.
 
Hello everybody

Hi guys,

I'm Friedl from Austria. Thanks for having me!

I recently installed the CFS3 and started playing it again after many many years. Luckily I also found this great forum, I'm learning every day more regarding all the mods which makes it even more fun!

I spent several years in North America and have seen lots of the planes at the Air Force Dayton, OH museum. It is so impressive, I just love the old engineering stuff!

Friedl
