The forum is usually one of the first topics of discussion, Nik is a great ambassador! :thumbup:

Awesome, I'll check it out tonight

Nice story and shots Trolly, looked like a fun flight :thumbup:

Thanks for the reply hinch. I was thinkin about getting the Mentor but the gauge thing puts me off, I'm a true-blue VC flyer. Haha and yeah I realise it was an old topic, Ive been known to do a bit of digging up

Thats cool, so whats FSCrew all about? it uses voice checklists - more thorough than any paper ones i've had for the aircraft at all stages of flight. It has some other features such as being able to radio your flight school and refuel truck. The conversation and briefings are utter rubbish though - the script is not remotely amusing. good job i paid £4.50 :P

Awesome Jon + Nik, reduced vis = increased fun Also glad to see a Nelson aircraft out and about

Cool Andrew, what aeroplane have you got there?

Hello, Ian, For the record I was in the US Navy flying the "Barrier" from Barbers Point Hawaii as a sceond tech electronics.. Flew the EC121K to Midway deployment. Flights would last about 12 hours or so up over Alaska and back to Midway Island. This was back in 1963-65 when they decommissioned the squadron. Used to fly test hops for engine replacements from Barbers Point to Christchurch occasoionally if I needed flight hours. Nice bunch of people down here. Friendly bunch. One of our R7V's (cargo version of Connie) was sent to VX-6 at NAS Quonset Point on 1 Sep 64 and named...

Thanks for the comments guys. I should of being more orginal with my rego and perhaps got ZK-NKI ( short for naki) - anyway always wanted a plane with my initials and here it is! Paul, my computer also falls over in the heat so don't feel alone - I have put my desk fan on the floor behind it which seems to work! Have moved the hard drive so it gets more cooling - I wondered whether a desk fan would work :D - now I know Any issues with RealNZ NZRO? No no issues - great scenery and looking forward to Marlborough - should be magic for me as I am normally a VFR flyer also, did yu plan...

They looked great Trolly, good job :thumbup: You gotta love that sky, and loved the Cherokee, superb model that one.

Very nice Matthew........cool stuff I'm running two PX7950GT extremes in an SLI set up. I'm looking at getting a 256meg PCI to run another monitor for radios, GPS, throttle controls etc... Cheers Nik(ZK-TJL) :rolleyes:

There are other freeware AI planes but you get no Cessna singles if you don't.

I'll have to go next time I'm in Nelson, I've been to the very top of the nth island, and the very bottom of the south, going to the centre would be the trifector :P
