Hi Harleyman... I have a viking turbo in my FS9. Good little aircraft. Glad you got your problem solved. My sound is fixed and now for the process to build up and set up my new FSX  sim. Your sim is fabulous. I know it took a lot of tweaking. Smile

I can see the attraction in FSX now. It's pretty amazing! I prefer staying on the ground, however. I think if I could get a car sim like that quality, I'd get into that. I miss being able to drive, because now I can't. Driving my pc with some force feedback to feel like a real car would be great.

The graphics are beautiful. It's not a game for me, at least I don't think it would be. I can see the draw, but it lacks.... explosions.LOL
 
I do like driving sims though. Well.. racing games actually. Gran Tourismo is one of my all time favorite series.

The Graphics are spectacular Harley but I'm with Tyler. I can see it being really fun if you could dogfight with someone like in battlefield vietnam migs vs f-14's.

Lol, do you get to pick what the pilot looks like? The graphics are killer man, unreal. Now you need a few bombs to drop on that town then you can join the mile high club for a mission well done. :)

You need a pilot that looks like the red baron or snoopy or somthing that would be slick. If you crash is there big explosions, do people flee if you fly low at them?

Do they still just reset you on the runway if you try to crash into a building? I heard they changed the sims a bit after 9-11 so you wouldnt get any fun from running into buildings =(.
 
P.S stop posting so much, youre not gonna overtake me you bastard!

  IMHO raiding in WoW has always been way over rated....small chance at getting above average gear that is sure to be obsolete when a new expansion comes out...you can keep itBig%20smile

Raiding wasnt like that till the expansion, the raid gear was like a billion times better then anything you could get casual. It was really freaking cool having full T2 then full T2.5 (AQ40, that by far was the most fun i ever had in WoW, was in AQ40)...now everybody has epics and amazingly good gear...

You obviously havent played WoW..haha...I was really hardcore into it at one point. AQ40 was a dungeon, the second to last 40 man released before the expansion...

The last boss C'thun in AQ40 was one of the best fights in the game at the time. IM sure you can find videos of it on youtube.
