Were it not for flight simulation.....

Panzerlied - another good one. I would need a motivational march like that just to get my a$$ inside a tank. :icon_lol:
 
Gut Deutsch and gut Filme!


Years ago, I had Panzer Commander.. Loved that game. Especially playing online. I could at least compete now and then.


Janes WWII fighters had a great 'Battle of the Bulge' war scene.

Thank God it's Friday! I fly (sim) on Fridays .... the whole Friday ...from the time I open my eyes till they shut! (or till I feel nauseous) Work? I can slack a little bit!

Eli's my name and simming is my game!
 
i must admit if it werent for my simulators id be lost,though i spend alot of time in chat as well..
i have FS9 and FSX but i use FS9 exclusively
i also have ship simulator which is fun for a short time
and i have train simulator,its new/old to me..i had it with my old system but wouldnt run so i removed it..then the disc's were taken when i had my rv worked on..they took several things..i bought it again and installed it on my new rig and run everything maxed out and it screamsssss.....:woot: cool thing..i found a fairmont speeder for it..its alot of fun to take the speeder and just explore..throw a switch and follow it to the end ect.....blast
 
Flying in FS is relaxing to me. Bad weather and other inconviences just keep it "interesting".
 
My great love has always been aviation. My medical was pulled 11 years ago and being permanently grounded would be horrible were it not for FS. What little sanity I still have is thanks to FS.

I'm a Teacher

I'm a teacher. A 10th grade English teacher. That being said, you would not believe the time I spend at home correcting essays. Often bad essays. Many times I sit at my desk with a stack of essays, vocabulary quizzes, or tests in front of me and, of course, the computer on. I'll pick an aircraft and fly from the closest field that will Handel the ship I've chosen. Most of the time it is from the Hopedale Industrial park. I always pick the exact time and weather going on. I take off, get to altitude, set my mixture, and set my auto pilot. I can now correct. My wife thinks I'm playing "that game" again. I explain that I am trying to see where I could have gone if I were not correcting and caring about papers that most of my students didn't care about when they wrote them. I can do a vocabulary quiz while flying form Hopedale to Knox County Maine. Nice place, Maine. Simming is another reality.

"Were it not for flight simulation......"

I'd have more money in the bank!! Flight simulation, and now racing simulation like Wombat, has exacted a toll on my cash flow for hardware improvements. But, don't anyone tell my wife!!!!........

My beautiful wife thinks I'm nuts and "wasting time" with flight simming. It's a job stress reliever for me......until I "Panther" a landing!

I spend more time downloading and installing files, than actual flying. I guess it's just my thirst for the "perfect" addon, and the "perfect" tweak tip.

But still, I search!!!!

Ain't it fun?
