Yoda McFly 1 Report post Posted August 21, 2007 I tried the Flight Simulator thing ... There's not much to model out here, and they didn't do it very well, at least as of FS 2002, which was the last one I tried. That said, we've got three airports nearby, and they're all fairly accurately modeled. My house is midway between UDD (Bermuda Dunes, CA) and PSP (Palm Springs). TRM (Thermal, CA. May be called Jacqueline Cochrane something or another, now) is also nearby. Have fun, but don't stay away too long. That's what's nice about virtual vacations; you can always pause the vacation.

dribbler 6 Report post Posted August 21, 2007 *dribbler pulls up on drive on motorbike and kills the engine. He removes lid, limps up to front door due to 'thirthy something leather related groin injury' and goes inside. Opens beer and cranks up the PC. Reads Andres thread....* What the furks going on here then? Look, it's summer! I bought a bike and i'm out riding it a lot! Get your arses back in here and stop being daft. Turkey is upon us, the championship is going to be a corker and we need all hands on deck to see this season out with a proper TF1 bang. Don't make me come down there Andres....

pumpdoc 2 Report post Posted August 22, 2007 Ok, this has gone totally out of hand!I am so very sorry, I never expected to cause such a commotion. It is no big deal, really. Mike seems to have understood perfectly what I meant. There are a few posts I would like to make already so, as you can see, I am not going too far away Thank you all for the messages, sometimes is good when you realize that so many good people care for you, even if it is a bunch of weirdos like you! Oh, and about the city/country thing. I don't want that to turn into some big mistery, either. It is even sillier: I have installed the new version of Microsoft's Flight Simulator and having a blast with it (yeah, Eduardo, in your face!). As I don't have much of a life, I thought I might devise a route in the flight simulator that visits everyone of you, capture some screens along the way and tell about it as a little story in a blog. I already tried it with a few locations and, even if I am certain that they don't look too real, they look nice enough (graphics are impressive) and it would be fun It is going to be a long trip that will take me around the world and I will probably chose a turboprop airplane (they are more manageable and slower than jets, so more appropiate for this) The first leg of the trip will be, of course, from Buenos Aires to Rio de Janeiro, to visit Katy. From there I will travel to Mexico and then USA to the west coast, to visit the crazy Californian guys (I should get a Mig-25 to fly over Bruce's house, just to scare the Sh#t out of him )...then we will see! Ah yes, I have learnt my lesson. Next time, if I want to leave, I better do so without making a thread Love you guys in a non-sexual way. Well, maybe a little...ok, ok, I masturbate everyday looking at your avatars! Edit: One more thing. I was not aware it was the summer break up there! My bad! Mike, Yoda and I will be waiting guns loaded........... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
