    Hey Jon,

    Great to see a "Blue Noser" in these here parts! I'm a "Spud Islander" living with in "Herring Choker" country, so the next time you are going to the "hub city" just email me and let's do a coffee, and perhaps even a flight.

    Kind regards,

    Hello, I'm a new member of this forum, I order (order 586926) FTX SP3 last week and now happy to fly over Australia.

    I'm new on FSX word but not really in aviation, I'm member of AJBS (www.ajbs.fr) and Casques de Cuir associations (www.casquesdecuir.com) two associations located on the Cerny-La Ferté Alais airfield, some 30 miles south of Paris. Besides the fact that this is a museum with some venerable flying machines, a large part of the aircraft are maintained to flying conditions and are frequently displayed in airshows all over France during the flying season (yes in France we have a season to fly and season to maintain :) ).

    this is for me a good reason to make some flight with lot of aircrafts and make some shots like these one :

    I'm also maried, with two daughter, 40 years old, rugby player and for the moment an IBM application engineer

    Thanks for the FTX SP3 world, this is defenitively a new way to fligh with FSX

    Hi Frank,

    It looks like you are bringing lots of experience and aviation know-how to the forums. It is good to meet you.

    Nickname: Smurf

    Real name: Steve Murphy

    From: Huntingdale, Victoria

    Age: 32

    Occupation: Mechanic

    Hobbies: Trying to get fit

    I got my nickname from my name basically, S. Murphy. I'm actually quite a big guy so it's not cause i'm small.

    I've been mucking around on and off with flight sim since FS2000. It wasn't really impressing me that much anymore untill I saw pictures of FTX,

    now i've built a new computer to get back into it. Now it's a completely different and amazing experience.

    Anyway, here's a picture of me (sort of), me and my mate have photoshop wars with each other and this is one he did of me, it's just my face on his head  :D

    Hello Steve. Good to meet you.

    Well, here I am staring out of my cockpit windows, or something like that. My real name is Stephen and I am a Minister and Chaplain of a Christian foundation based in Canada. As far as FS goes, I started with the Apple 2e version in the 80's, but only got serious with MS FS98, FS9 and FSX. I used to be into tubeliners in a big way, but have been pulled down out of the clouds by the beauty of FTX scenery, so now I fly near the ground or often do practise circuits perfecting my landings.  Although I have most major add-ons in both scenery and aircraft, I stick mostly to Australia flying either the L-39, the Twin Otter, or the Duke. I also have the terrible habit of tweaking and testing, tweaking and testing, tweaking and testing...

    It's nice to put some faces to names, in some cases, of those I have been FS neighbours with for years, and for new friends in the rest.

    How observant John. I have a 2008 model, but have my order in for the 2009 Anniversary model. It is estimated to arrive in April. I can't wait.

    I also had the option of an aftermarket nose cone identical to that one but opted for the real thing.

    P.S. Here's my current one!

    Frank, Years ago I used to have a musuem like finished RMS Titanic with real portholes and back lighting build into a wall in a conference room attached to my office. It was the whole highlight of the decor. Visitors would come in and I would get to expound on my other obsession (before Leonardo Caprio), all things Titanic (since 12 years old). What are you doing with the one behind the mazda? It looks about a 1:350 scale, or is it larger? If we ever meet DO NOT ask me about the ship. I will gush on for hours and hours. Instead pick the next subject in line - Flying.
