.. but according to tracking data, its been sitting in AKL for 7 days now...Its only a book for goodness sake. Maybe it is backlog in customs department of New Zealand that needs time to screen out each package to be sure it is legit. Its only a book for goodness sake. It is not uncommon for any crook to smuggle stuff INSIDE the book. Smiling :lol: :lol: :lol: Hence customs department needing time to screen out each package. It is hard for police dogs to sniff out drugs if the drugs are inside thick pages of a book. Its only a book for goodness sake. If you are ordering aviation book, then...

Last night I managed to actually take a flight on the Xbox, the controller is definitely not intuitive, though. Quite a smooth landing at Wellington, although lost a bit of power on approach -- I need to keep an eye on the power, as for some reason the sound of my engine doesn't change at all. I was impressed with the look of it, though, on the big screen, at 4K. The default settings are mostly middling, to keep things smooth I guess, but it compares well with the PC on higher settings. I was pleased to see my rego number from the PC show up! It's weird going back to default airports,...

It's been gloomy here in the Hutt all day, and steady rain since the afternoon, but I don't think it'll get bad at any point. A standard day in the Hutt then Rob :D

I am just wondering who it is I should ask, not to blow up Doha while we are in transit there. There is no travel insurance covering cancellation due to war.

What's a B.A.R? Surely not the US rifle? No photos worth sharing as yet. I have low expectations from my stuff, but there are plenty more talented folks out there who have released terrific images.

Okay, instead of complaining, let's do something for the forum again and be active. Currently, I'm "flying" in MSFS 2020, as usual. I'm spending a lot of time with the new Dornier Do 27, which you can find at simmarket. The implementation is decent, and most importantly... it's the first Dornier Do 27 I can remember... since 1990. Furthermore, I've switched to the "Professional Edition" of the analog Caravan. Compared to its predecessor, it's somewhat refined, and the engine's characteristics have become a bit more "strict". For my "fun instinct," I...

Wow, I admire your patience Astro Rob, looking forward to seeing more star stuff. Re the world ...I agree , its not good. I've had a similar travel offer, but to Japan in November but I respectfully declined for similar reasons. I really don't go anywhere these days.... everything I need or want to do is within 20ks of home....and online of course. My work environment has increased my situational awareness considerably , it can be very volatile at times . That awareness extends to basic stuff like being at the supermarket, gas station etc. I don't go near shopping malls anymore (never enjoyed...

I’m not usually an audio book person, but it certainly helped pass the time when I was doing a major clean of the flat after the kids had finally moved out. Somehow it made the experience more immersive than just reading.
