macca22au Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 For furriners, Bundaberg Rum is one of Australia's most iconic (and pleasant) drinks. For yachties Bundy and Coke is mandatory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aussieflyer38 Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Nice shots Macca, haven't seen you piloting that for a while, but maybe I missed it, I was absent for a bit. Dash looks great. Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Sawyer Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 These look great, I'd love to try some of that but all I drink is wine now, no more hard stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macca22au Posted May 15, 2019 Author Share Posted May 15, 2019 You're right Aussieflyer, I have been playing with the Carenado ATR with the F1GTN 750. But as I am determined to land the Dash 8 properly I have returned to the Dash with its weak wing effect that leads to so many heavy landings (or too short if I let the speed drop). Jack, I only have a tincture of Scotch a day, and I am finding my beloved reds too hard on my stomach. Sorry to sound posh, but French Chablis is about right for my delicate digestion. I thought when I grew old I would be free to drink anything, but my innards grew old too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to hear Don. Yeah, my adult beverage consumption has decreased dramatically. An Amstel Light now and again is ok but sparingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macca22au Posted May 17, 2019 Author Share Posted May 17, 2019 Jack: Don and I have found that we are both 80+, live close together and have set up a PM correspondence. Don appears to have a well specced machine but he is getting really slow loading times with P4.5. I'm no expert but there is something fundamentally wrong in the software, as his hardware seems fine. These forums are a right good place for friendly people to maintain contact. But Georgia is way beyond my bucket list, though my wife and I lived and worked in the States, and travelled widely. We counted it our second home, and some wonderful people as extra grandparents. Jack, I got my last job at 60, and red wine was no problem at that stage.......

I wish I could go to Australia some day. I wonder why his version loads so slowly, what area is he trying to load? I have yet to time the loading of P3D's TEGB.

macca22au Posted May 18, 2019 Author Share Posted May 18, 2019 Jack: I once gave a paper at a conference in Miami, and took the opportunity to drive right down the Keys to Key West. A great experience, so no doubt I have looked across to Georgia! I now live on the Gold Coast just south of Brisbane and the suburb names have been unashamedly stolen from Florida to create the image of an over-the-top lifestyle but after all this is Aus.... Yes I will check with Don and see whether it is specific scenery, and also which version of P3D he has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I am still breathlessly waiting the release of Aus v2, This coming week I hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
