Hello, new here

Postby Irfan Ahmed » Mon Nov 01, 2021 12:17 am

Hi, greetings from Lahore, Pakistan (OPLA).

Just a few words about myself:

I am a 42 year old grade school teacher in a private school here. Flight simming has been a hobby ever since I got my first 386 computer (way back). Won't say it's a passion though and I don't consider myself as an enthusiast (I mean, I have to be frugal with my expenses). Currently I use DCS, X-plane 11 and just 2 weeks back I bought MSFS. I have a sort of a YouTube channel (no regular posts and nothing commercial; just 50-ish subscribers). Looking forward to interacting with you guys (and girls) over here.

Soft landings!

Welcome - I think I'm kinda the same; enjoy it, and used to be fairly passionate about it, but not sim'd for some time no and though I have bought and installed MSFS within the last few weeks, I still haven't even started it, mostly because I have no controls connected (they are in a box having moved house, and my pedals are broken). but welcome, and 'see you around' :)

A big hello to our new friend in Pakistan from me too!

I run XP11 and MSFS - though I really must update my old DCS install!

There are lots of very knowledgeable people here at NZFF, so don't be shy to ask!

Welcome to the NZ flight simming scene Irfan.
I run P3DV4.5 and when PC parts prices drop back from their current ridiculous prices I will upgrade my system to run P3D5.2 and MSFS.
I also do a bit of real world flying when I have too :)

Cheers
Steve
