I have learned that while I am freezing my back side off, the natives are relishing this little "cool snap." In going out to talk to my distributor's customers, I have found out that they like to hold high level meetings outdoors so they can enjoy the briskness of the day! Never mind my blue lips...... I'll be fine once the feeling comes back to my toes! I have found that if you keep your mouth shut about team sports, college choices, politics, etc., a big 'ol boy from Texas can do well here and will be well liked by the aforementioned natives. Speaking of...... The lady at the deli counter at lunch today that served me all the Boston cuisine that tasted SOOOOOOOO good is now on my Christmas card list! And for sure, we can't forget Ms. Rose Spinelli at the car rental place........ I believe she saved my rear with the car rental thingy. (I won't go into it but she is my newest friend in Boston!) I now also see why the modelers in this area tend to stay in their hobby rooms, basements, etc. building all winter. The wind and driving slushy snow is no place for a warm blooded Texas boy to even think about outdoor activity so I think if I were here permanently, I'd be holed-up in a basement working on next Spring's building project for sure! Well guys....... Signing off from my hotel in beautiful uptown Braintree, Mass........ SEE YA! WT

Hey wait a min If you came to Braintree how come you did not tell me or call I live only 20 minutes from there I could take you out and around would have loved to do that. If you are still here give me call or send me a message.

Welcome back Rude, Thanks to Cheech & Chong and the whole '60's culture thing you're back in.

Hey Ken. Are you hawking another simulator here?

[Father Don]

I really like the way this guy flies. His maneuvers are very smooth and rhythmic. I love the upright harrier down the runway with a slow pull over to inverted harrier. The ultra-slow rollers are just a thing of beauty. There are many, many more things he does that are awesome so I thought I’d share. I'll be shedding many of these on the sim and have a few of them ready for the field soon! It’s a long video, but you don’t have to watch it all at once, you can download it; plus, what else do you have to do? Unfortunately my brothers, this will get you lathered up to fly! Enjoy.

One thing he's got that we don't. Youth.

And time to practice.
Great Video. Thanks

Does anyone know if there was snow at the field from yesterdays storm?

If so, how much?

Old age and treachery my friend will beat youth any day! Plus, lots of practice, just like they do. The young practice more than we do because we have so many other things yanking on us.

Probably you and me both. But it's fun to think about it.

Once you load G4 go to http://www.realflight.com/products/gpmz4430-index.html

Choose product update free to 4.5 Just know that this is a massive download so do it when you have time.

I would like to have a sim party at my house soon. Steaks on the grill, cocktails and some simulator fun. I'll drop the invite when I can arrange it. I will try for a weekend day to early evening or something so it won't mess with everyone's schedule too much.
