It's not that I'm not interested, just do not have the capability to Group Fly - but sounds like fun for the others.

Aircraft Transition

Dave,

Completed Turboprop Flights out of KSTL, transitioning to Turbojet Flights, starting with shorter routes using CRJ-200 moving up to the longer routes using CRJ-700 out of KSTL.

Re: Flight Simulator Gave Birth to 3D Video Game Graphics

Dave, It does bring back good memories. I tinkered with a C64. I started writing code back in 1978 with TRS-80 in Basic. My first line of code was PRINT "HELLO WORLD!" HELLO WORLD! While today's computers are awesome and gee-whiz, I miss the simplicity of the past... DOS-rules! Life's good.

That was great! I started Flight Simming back in the days of Sublogic FS1. I thought ATP was a great program and actually "beta-tested" for Microsoft on FS3, FS4, and FS5. My first computer...

Re: Near-Miss Departing St Louis

Good morning Dave, I think the American Captain had it out for us anyway. We got in a bit of a snarl while taxiing for Take-Off. Even though "Law of Gross Tonnage" usually wins, Small and Agile, was faster.... Again, Ground Control was no help refereeing the snarl. The MD-11 closely follow...

Near-Miss Departing St Louis

Tough flight today. We have a near-miss with an American MD-11 departing St Louis and another one on approach to Owensboro with a Mooney M20 which almost hit us in the nose (didn't get that picture - happened WAY TOO FAST). Our evasive action prevented that one. Poor ATC control today. Reports to fo...
