Great shots. The rendition of Denpasar is very good. Have landed there and also at Lombok in real life but no further east.

Meigs Field. That's where I had my first taste of landing at an airport with scenery. Great fun.

The opening shot made me chuckle straight away.

EGPH. Took my first commercial flight from there as well as my first flight in a GA aircraft. It's also the airport I normally use when travelling back and forth to see family up north. In fact my first flight was in a chipmunk at RAF Leuchars when I was in the Air Training Corps. I remember it vividly - that's when they had English Electric Lightings which patrolled the North Sea and ensured the Russians stayed out of UK airspace They regularly went up in pairs around midnight which thrilled me as a youngster to hear them roar off into the distance.

Yes, Pittsburgh Steelers and TJ Watt trying to break Michael Strahan's single-season sack record of 22.5.
I remember QB Terry Bradshaw from my time in the States (1977-79). I was living in Washington DC where the fans detested Bradshaw because he was so good. I recall the Steelers were a very strong team back then.

I did enjoy home brewing for about ten years, but it is a time consuming process, and I found that it involved a lot of time standing, which my arthritic knees couldn't take.

As a youngster I spent a lot of time consuming beer but found it involved a lot of falling down which had nothing to do with arthritis.

Football - as it is rightly known, not soccer was my favourite sport for several decades however in my opinion the huge salaries the players get nowadays has tainted the game for me. No longer are players at your favourite club for the whole of their careers so do not have the same affiliation as the long suffering fans. Major cycling events - especially the main three, Tour de France, Giro d'Italia and La Vuelta Espania are what I look forward to, but even then having read a number of books on the extent of doping, leaves me to wonder if the riders are genuinely "clean". Any form of beer is suitable when watching sport, especially when combined with potato crisps (chips in the non-English speaking parts of the world

Just had my first flight with TrackIR since the update, jumping into the default C172 at EGKK and was delighted with the performance. The only "problem" I had was continually being told "don't sink" as I descended to look at the views which were amazing.

Thanks Landon. I packed my TrackIR away after being unimpressed. Will fire it up again.
Cheers

Same here. Love TrackIR for low level VFR flying.

Flew into and out of Glasgow a few weeks back and the terminal was as quiet as these great shots.

Which football team might that be John?
Dundee United. Proud to stay I flew home from Pakistan to see them win the Scottish Premiership for the one and only time in 1983. Those heady days are long gone.

Having seen several of my contemporaries succumb to various conditions/ illnesses I am more than glad my wife and I are able to see in 2022 when it arrives in the UK. Wishing you all a healthy 2022. On a more mundane note, being able to fly again after two years to witness in person my favourite football team win two games has got to be up there.

Problem solved. I remembered from another thread to delete the rolling cache. That seems to have done the trick.
