Self-sealing envelopes that don’t! Luckily, I have a large bottle of rubber-type adhesive that does the job nicely.

It’s not only me that has the problem – I had a letter from my solicitor today (nothing sinister!) with the flap stuck down with Sellotape. Same post brought yet another letter with the same method of closure.
The one thing they had in common were the words ‘Seal-easy’ on each envelope.

A great trip report, Maikel! Good analysis and nice pictures.

I even read through some of your other reports while I was over at Airliners.net.

Thanks for posting.

You’re talking to oldies here – grief any excitement like that may wipe out half this forum 🙂

Now this is what we want https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zqpDVyCB2Y 😮

I don’t know about that – it sent me to the little boys’ room after a couple of minutes :rolleyes:

AND – I bet you didn’t sit through it all, trumper!

Nice bird song, although a little repetitive in my opinion.

There are loads at Brize, some of them actually fly!

“…in 1960s flew Mach 2 in a F-104 Starfighter …. http://www.thisdayinaviation.com/29-may-1963/“

But the USA didn’t ‘invent’ Concorde, so they banned it from supersonic flight over their country!

LUCKY GIRL! – it must have been handy, with her having a daddy in the ‘right place’ at the right time :rolleyes:

All individuals who have ‘air time’ could probably lay claim to being the ‘first’ to achieve something while flying. I know a man who was the first to ….?

And to think I was moaning about a small leak into my conservatory!

My thoughts and best wishes to all those affected, both in the UK and elsewhere.

Sorry to learn of your current situation, Jim.

Life has given you a kicking recently.

Chin up, old forum-friend!

Welcome to the forum, Jim.

Good luck with the PPL! There are some really helpful people on here, just try asking a few questions!

Nicely put, Charlie!

Amen to that.

I have FS2004 running nicely on Windows 8.1 (64 bit version).
Loads of extra aircraft addons, VFR Photo Scenery, etc.

I saw a hint (don’t remember where or when!) about NOT installing in the ‘default’ location (i.e. Program Files) so I put mine onto an external hard drive that I only connect when doing sim-related tasks, e.g. FLYING ! . Because this drive is a bit “old :(” and not USB3, the sim takes a bit longer to load than it did on my previous Windows XP (lost in a mammoth PC crash!). A proper separate hard disk should improve things (if I can open the piggy bank) 🙂
Replacement PC came with Win 8 installed – upgraded to Windows 8.1 – it mashed up a few of my drivers, etc, but caused no problems with FS2004.

I don’t have FSX so I can’t comment on that from personal experience, but it shouldn’t be a problem. Hope this helps.

P.S. My Extreme 3D Pro joystick and my oldish CH Flight Yoke also work great!
