Flying Style

A place to converse about the general aspects of flight simulation in New Zealand

Quick question and poll out of curiosity. In the simulator, do you mostly conduct VFR or IFR operations?

EDIT: Ok, I think I locked myself out of my own poll. Also, how do I enable it so that users can actively see the current results?

Mostly VFR, occasionally IFR. I try to use real world weather as much as possible so only go IFR if I have to.

Always VFR for me.... biggrin.gif ...!

..'cos I always fly with warm, sunny, clear blue skies above me...

....and I like admiring the scenery down below...(as the Bishop said to the Actress).... winkyy.gif ...!

Clouds, etc, are an invitation to Death!

My only bit of "instrument" flying, is Radio Navigation...eg: Autopilot, etc...

Paul.... biggrin.gif ...!

A wonderful day today, with a warm, sunny, clear blue sky, England. Especially designed for a nice motorbike ride around the countryside this afternoon...Definitely..VFR!!.... thumbup1.gif ...!

Who the bloody ell is that Bishop, the actress .. , well .. I'm now starting to Rolf at the thought ... who inverted that Harrassing saying .

Since I guess your a very much want to be VFR in a multiplay, it dose carry its weight with a good weather theme , really when it comes to one in the control tower, I thought of this since this afternoon one may not own the fancy payware toys , something to think about is to jump in maybe as ATC ! ... I have not tried it recent ... but maybe something to a Flying Style

Here you go Ian....

A common British (comical) saying...often including a wink of the eye!......>>> http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?...%20the%20bishop

I often use it during Multiplayer activity to cause a laugh!... biggrin.gif ...!

Paul...... A Comical Character.... laugh.gif ...!

I thrive on these!...>>> http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?...Double+Entendre

I spend most of my time wandering around chuckling to myself at things that I see and hear!.... laugh.gif ...!

A bit off topic.... rolleyes.gif ...

..but I really do wish that the rest of the World had some of our; "Monty Python", "Carry-on Films", etc, humour, to brighten up the day....

....unfortunately, I find its lost on most/all of the Forums that I frequent.

They are all far too "Serious" for my liking... sad.gif ...!

Fortunately, most of my Chums across the Pond seem to enjoy our type of humour...(with a bit of coaching, and detailed explanation).... winkyy.gif ....!

Paul......A laugh a day, keeps the Doctor away...Trust me!..... laugh.gif ....!

....back to aeroplanes..and VFR/IFR flights!!... winkyy.gif ...!
