AI, (Artificial Intelligence), is certainly not new to me, since the first of my Desktop personal computers in the 1990s, with their installed Microsoft Windows operating system, and connecting to the Internet via the old telephone Dial-up connection system, (re-dial again after an hour or so of use!). What soon became obvious was the use of the Internet Search Engine software provided by a number of Internet Service providers, and computer processor software, whereby a typed text into the "Search Box" would suggest a number of options for the required subject. All this was done by...

For me there was a Golden Period in the decade 2004 - 2014 kicked off by Christian's mesh and topo. Yes, although I've had enough counselling in my life to know that there's no such thing as the 'good old days', otherwise you'll forget to see the value of today, those were definitely the good old days! Full of possibilities, where everything was difficult, and anything seemed possible. I still have no idea how you actually made those videos back then. I can certainly understand why you'd want to go it alone with your project back then, we tend to have a vision, and we don't want it somehow...

Unless there a SAM heading my way then you can't wipe the smile off my face :D

Marty knows what he's about - bananas don't grow on trees, y'know :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

GREAT STUFF AND GREAT PHOTOS showing progress of building the plane When I was kid, I built 300 planes. I am surprised to see in your photos that Revell and Airfix are still in business since I was kid in 20th century!! I never heard of the brand Sword. Is it new company founded in 21st century? Oh the price for plastic model plane kit is between 2.50 and 5 bucks for many American and foreign brands in 20th century. The price for plastic model tank is 8 bucks with motor or 6 bucks without motor for Japanese Takima brand. Wondering how much it is now Regards, Aharon Airfix have had a...

I'd order one for the Airspeed Horsa, if only to check whether it's actually a Truk :) Begorrah, I wouldn't know at all, atoll :D

Aren't they ever? All he had to do was ring up and ask. A masterclass in bad planning :lol:

Cheers Big Guy...I think the price was lower because they could use the original part ...lucky aye, just the new belt and their time.

That aircraft has always been there, long as I've lived. It will be weird without them, somehow. Still can't quite get over now having a King, actually, same story.

weren't tempted to go a little higher rez wise? I'm running P3D/MSFS at QHD/1400p which just gives a little more oomph, don't think my 2060 will cope w driving a 4k monitor AFS2 and AFS4 are very smooth on moderate spec systems like mine. The GPU in the Flying Machine is an 8GB Radeon RX6500 XT, which does all I want. and stays cool. I like good visuals, but I want visible improvements, not ones I will need a computer to measure. :D

True Mr B.

Thanks for looking gents...this really is amazing.

Marty...you said it: holy cow And he said it, too: You have to know when to stop... Now my next question is this: At what point do we get an in-sim airshow crowd for the Ardmore MSFS scenery???

Snails or the henge, I think the henge. :D It was so clear, mate. Travellers arrived at the henge and entered through the trilith or gate in front of them. Inside, they consulted the druid, who told them which gate to depart through, to make their next waypoint. But sometimes the Druid wasn't able to anymore.

Thanks Rob. Scary indeed. Mike

Charl, I know what you mean.....regarding Dylan and the like, I almost anticipate news about the demise of ...for example, any living member of the Rolling Stones, Dylan, Paul Simon etc. Don't mean to be morbid. I must admit that more than once in a while I remind/warn myself that there could be news when I wake up. I have an obsession with Linda Ronstadt, who has been unwell for a long time now, but I still hope that she outlives me.
