No personal experience with it, but I've heard nothing but good about the Thrustmaster T-Flight in all flight sim circles. It seems to be the best stick in that price range. I also use the Saitek/Logitech X52, but not the Pro version (about $50 difference in price). For just casual simming...

Terrible. My thoughts & prayers go out to the victims and all affected.

My first major accident was also as a passenger in a Pontiac Sunbird (1986 model, I believe). It was the early 90's, Fall of 92 or so I think, I was 17. It was Friday night. We had just left the local McDonald's and were headed one county over to meet each other at the bowling alley. We'd...

Soundgarden was big my senior year of High School. Black Hole Sun was one of my favorites back then. Sad for everyone involved, family, friends, fans. :(

Thanks! That's actually a picture I took last summer, have used it on a couple aviation forums, thought I'd bring it over here as well. I've been using this one as my cover photo on FB since I took it a few weeks ago.

Probably the same way Gibbs got the boat out of his basement.

Indeed. I think a more accurate description would be an alias. In a nutshell, it creates a link in the location Spacecraft3 is expecting the folder to be, named the same as the folder SC3 is expecting, but actually pointing to where the folder really is (the folder structure that Orbiter_ng...

As far as what I'm bringing with me, I'm thinking of just getting a decent pair of binoculars. Not much into photography, so I'll just enjoy the experience. I've never directly viewed an eclipse myself - any suggestions as far as protection to use with binocs?

Exactly why I'm not fond of shelling out $150 this far in advance to park my plane. If it's not CAVU or CAVOK in the area, I will likely stay put or just go get a $100 hamburger somewhere unless it's IFR.

Correct. I'm told the actual point is in the middle of a farm field northwest of the city.

Hopkinsville, KY is going to be the location of maximum eclipse at 2m42s. That's only ~80nm Southwest of me. I was thinking of flying the 150 down and landing at HVC for a few hours, watching the event, then flying home. I found out via the Cessna 150-152 club forum that HVC is now taking...

Pretty much every site I visit on my phone I request the desktop version because the mobile versions are missing features, not screen-friendly, and generally unusable.

:welcome: to the forum!

Indeed. I think he should get an honorary burial at sea. You know, somewhere outside the environment. Not in the areas where they're doing the seismic testing, of course.

Satirist John Clarke dies, aged 68 https://au.news.yahoo.com/a/34974866/satirist-john-clarke-dies-aged-68/#page1 One of my all-time favorite comedy skits.

:welcome: to the forum!! A good list to start with is always the Recommended Addons page. I've linked the 2010 version as there isn't yet a page for Orbiter 2016 addons. Many of these may still work in 2016 but not all authors have upgraded their addons just yet. UCGO will get you UMMU, the...

:jawdrops: The 3rd and 4th shots look like X-Plane with photo scenery and the RealTerraHaze addon. Amazing!

I'm liking the sound of this. Not sure how available I'll be, but let me know if I can help in any way. Would love to adapt something to an actual B5 Jump Gate. Might give me an excuse to dust off the Cortez and update her to 2016. ---------- Post added at 09:03 AM ---------- Previous post...
