Rodger Pettichord Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 Hi all. We Forum Folk love pets and children and flight simulation. For some, those loves get combined (see below). And that love leads to this week’s Meaningless Topic. THIS WEEK’S MEANINGLESS TOPIC: Do you have a canine or feline or little human helper when you fly? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stillwater Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Indeed Rodger, it is very important that you have support while flying. Be it in VFR... ... or IFR. In the latter case a well-programmed autopilot is useful as well. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adambar Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 No, he hates it when I get on the computer and goes elsewhere mainly the back of the couch and looks out the window. 😄 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wain71 Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 this is Felix, sadly she passed away last October, but we'd had her since 2009 so she was a big deal in our family.... we were flying the Aerosoft bus somewhere, she always used to just like to layout on my desk even if I was just working, every now and then she would sigh like she was bored with whatever I was doing....miss her so much...(must be an old one as I have had a ps5 for at least 18 months) 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larryisenor Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 In addition to VFR and IFR I sometimes fly FFR (Feline Flying Conditions) Where the outside view is obscured by the cat (Thanks Hunter). Larry 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've scaled back from a few years ago. Do you remember that old thread " share you home cockpit" or something like that. Loved looking at people's setups. I'll take a pic of mine, nothing special now but I'm very happy 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Abernathy Posted Friday at 02:24 PM Share Posted Friday at 02:24 PM I do remember that thread now! Well now at least there's more room for your copilot. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Q Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago I quite agree, it would be nice to do a reprise on the various set-up used to fly our sims. To come back to the original topic: my cat Chessie will occasionally visit in my cockpit, and sit on my lap for a while while I'm preparing a flight. But he never stays for very long, and certainly leaves once I start the engine. Too loud, I guess. Ken 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
