  1. My mother was German so second language was German although not used in decades. My power language is "tongues"!

     

    Using a cell as a communicator like in Star Trek works pretty good.  Matter of fact is a guy rode up on his bike and asked in Spanish if I would like my trees trimmed.

    I do not speak Spanish and he used his cell and I spoke in his cell... no need since I just had them trimmed.  His cell translated into Spanish on the fly.

    We communicated back and forth like a normal conversation.

  2. First car was a 1968 Mustang Fastback Hot Rod, 282 cam, cyclone headers, Edelbrock Torker intake with 600 Holley, B&M C-4 trans, etc.

    My sports car from the 70's... 1969 Fiat 124 Spider, twin cam aluminum head, split headers, 5 speed trans, and 4 wheel disc brakes.

  3. I remember going to the chow hall for some ham & bacon omelets with cheese and grits with butter and sugar sprinkle on top, plus hash-browns... yum. Reading this made me remember those days.

     

    excerpt from ROORD latest book...

     

    “We’ll treat the SSI crew,” said the USAF pilot. “Pretty good breakfasts here.”
    “Even if it’s bad stuff, we eat if you treat,” said Clausen.
    “Good mess hall here. Real eggs and butter, hotcakes, good fried spuds, and sausage and ham,” said the pilot. “And they make a decent batch of coffee.”

     

    What Cooper did for is aircrew mate was heroic!  Bravo writing Rodger!!!

  4. Milton created this beauty way back for FS2002. This was his last updated model since he retired.  I updated this paint job and added normal mapping a few years go. Giving the model a rippled metal effect on the skin.  Don't fly that much any more but when I do love taking her out for a flight!

     

    This one has the latest walkway strips on the wings.
