TerribleT

E for me

Being one who appreciates all types if music I found this hard to decide but I have to nominate the enigmatic Bob Dylan as the one who most influenced, and still influences, my own progress as a musician right from his earliest days until now!

I like all the Pipers and Cessnas from smallest single to medium twins (PA31 and C40x) and I operate them mainly in Aust, PNG and NZ.

Now that's just terribly funny ..... or just funnily terrible

Marvelous collection of historic performances by wonderful performers - I too was pleased to see Gordo make your cut because he came before all the others, way before his time, thank you

Anywhere outdoors with fair weather and native animals willing to co-exist with me.

Many Happy Returns have a good'un!

Many Happy Returns and lots of great music!

I've always viewed purchases of sim add-ons as their equivalency to the price of a carton of beer - most are less than a carton and some a bit more - BUT the use and enjoyment of a sim add-on (aircraft or scenery) vastly outlasts any carton I've ever bought

The only social media I reluctantly use is Facebook to stay in touch with my family, who use it in varying degrees, and my large number of musician friends who use it heavily - those who are still performing find it essential for advertising, maintaining a fan base and live streaming. I have produced live streaming events for a number from my home studio and they have been very effective.

Thanks Adam for that - he never failed to deliver, particularly in live performance!

Profile shows last posted Jan 2021 and last visited March 2021 - he said in his last post he was battling on. I'm sure we all wish him the very best wherever he may be.

Very kind indeed good Sir

I'm still a FSX dinosaur which runs on my relatively modest PC at 60FPS with mainly maxed sliders in most areas except large cities with lots of AI where it drops to 22-25 FPS. I rarely have OOMs which I know how to avoid with slider and AI adjustments. I have heaps of excellent aircraft that I have modified to POH and engineering manuals as far as possible, quite a few of which I helped beta test. I have all the excellent Orbx scenery I want in conjunction with my beloved OZx and other fine freeware scenery, some of which I helped design and/or beta test. So I'm on a good thing and I stick to it

Thanks mate one of my late wife's favourite concerts - I bought the DVD for her back in the day and soon had to digitize it for her - she was wearing it out! Possibly one of their greatest shows, thank you

I was told in my youth when I commenced flight training that the 7 P's were an aviators' mantra from the 1930s RAF and, as my CFI was one step removed from God, I believe that implicitly

Colin has written and played many Oz anthems and he has a keen grasp of the Oz spirit so we ignore his mild accent

I find my best skills these days are with my pointer and markers which show my children and extended family where the job is and how I want it done

I was going to comment but I feel quite tanked out by all this .....

I always get one of my sons to open this type of DIYA thing for me - they can't resist putting them together - I shout the beers afterwards

Mate of mine in 1960s TPNG was an AnsettAOPNG Captain F27 (very experienced WWII bomber pilot, 20 years TPNG airline experience) and in horrible weather in New Britain Island landed at a small airport same Rway headings a few miles away from his regional airport destination - he promptly took off and went to his proper destination! The powers that be wanted to ground him but he got away with a stiff fine and demotion to right hand seat cargo DC3 runs for 2 years. He didn't mind - loved those DC3s and no PAX to worry about .

Many Happy Returns!

This topic left me speechless ..... almost but I have enjoyed the responses all of which I can understand

Many Happy Returns mate have a bonza day!

Oh mate classic evil humour!
