  1. (1982) receiving Jesus into my heart and later baptism by the Holy Spirit!
  2. If you like airplanes this is what's about 7 minutes from my door...
  3. Listening to Guy singing celebrating the One who made me and with Whom my mother is with now. She loved this song!
  4. 1. Owned my own lawn service at 11 for two years... $1.00 per yard (1968). 2. Janitor Castle AFB FTD building. Paid for my new 1973 Honda CB350. 3.

  5. Stearman is my favorite civil bird. These are the ones I fly. The top Stearman was used by NASA tow bird. US Air Mail was used in the movie "The Aviator" with Christopher Reeve, Rosanna Arquette, Jack Warden, and Sam Wanamaker. The last one was a retired crop duster a few years later converted to a two-seater.
  6. Yes, it is. I did this one a few years back around 2015, with all new rivets, screws, panels, and panel lines. Orbx Direct offers this Aeroplane Heaven F3F-2 for free.
  7. My dad 1965 bought me a J.C. Higgins Model 103.181 22 CAL. Sears Roebuck & Company bolt action rifle. He had a Winchester semi-auto 22. Good times with dad target shooting. I still have that rifle.
  8. It's that time of the year...
  9. Not a sandwich person unless it's toasted ham and cheese. No peanut butter in my house.
  10. Central Valley Cali here... normal weather for the summer. 100+ temps but not hot since it's a dry heat. Shade trees are a big help in covering the house. Power bill $130... neighbors $400+... ouch!
  11. Nothing like a flight into the Heavens! Flawless in every way! One day I'll have my wings too.
  12. AT&T sent out notices about upgrading to fiber that my area was available, but not so. And when the modem was activated the tech had to wait 45 minutes for the updates to load which he said usually does after the installation. He had to stick around until that was finished before transferring my old account to the new account.
  13. I might add it was supposed to be a one-hour job turned into 4 hours. The tech looked a the pole and said there is no box and fiber wire. It was a block away on another pole. Had to wait for another tech for 45 minutes to help string fiber from that pole to the one in my backyard. This installation was a free service.
  14. I was at 1 Mb and if I wanted 50 Mb I needed two modems and double copper wire from the pole at $50 which AT&T doesn't offer any longer. Now at 370+ Mb. A whole new world of speed! 😃 They just strung the wires yesterday on the poles so I can get the service to my house.
  15. AT&T just install a fiber line in my neighborhood and I'm the first! Now waiting for MSFS 2024!!!
  16. LM apparently made some changes to the modeling of aircraft and wondering how this affects older models. This is from iFly... Hi iFlyers, In light of the recent announcement made by Lockheed Martin’s Prepar3D team with regards to the upcoming version 6 we have been receiving questions about our NG & MAX Advanced Series product ranges’ compatibility with this new simulator. No, the NG/MAX is not compatible with Prepar3D v6. It requires a rework of the model, textures, effects, gauge displays, PBR and more. We are currently in development with the MAX for MSFS 2020, as you are aware, that is our main focus now. We plan to make the NG/MAX compatible with v6 but MSFS 2020 takes precedence. We cannot provide a timeline for the P3D v6 compatibility or if this would be a paid upgrade at this time. Happy iFlying! Only members unfortunately. http://ifly.flight1.net/forums/prepar3d-v6_topic21115&FID=30&PR=3.html
  17. Almost every few days a medivac chopper flies over my house.
  18. Pratt Whitney R 1340 600 hp hung on this beautiful Navy Curtiss from this period!
  19. Will Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 be a completely standalone sequel, or will it also be offered as a paid update for existing players? Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 is a standalone simulator and the next-generation sequel to Microsoft Flight Simulator that launched in 2020. Current aircraft and airports that are in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020), as well as virtually all Marketplace add-ons, will be supported in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. What kind of support can Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020) players expect to see once Flight Simulator 2024 has been released? We will continue to deliver our Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020) Roadmap which has content ranging from Aircraft and Avionics Updates, Sim Updates, City and World Updates, and also the free Dune DLC. We will continue to support Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020) post the Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 launch. Will all purchases users have made from the Marketplace be transferrable to the new simulator? With very few exceptions, virtually all add-ons that work in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020) today will function in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. Add-ons that were purchased from the in-simulator Marketplace will not need to be re-purchased in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. https://www.flightsimulator.com/microsoft-flight-simulator-2024-faq/

  21. The love of airplanes! My dad was stationed at Wright-Patterson AFB and lived on base next to the USAF Museum. Every school day I would walk by the XB-70, Strawberry Bitch B-24, B-25, B-29, etc. out of the base gate.
