Happy [late] 29th birthday, Frank! Vielen dank for all your dedicated hard work on the FI site!

Howdy wardog! Welcome!
I've been more than a little scarce lately, but hope to meet you one of these Sundays before too long.
(Won't be this next one, though - it's Superbowl weekend for all of us here across the pond. In other words, a MAJOR game-watcing party kind of a weekend.)
S!

Congrats, Grandpa Falcon! That is indeed a beautiful little lass there.

Happy to hear that mom is fine too.

Welcome to the world, little Shelby!

Lookin' very nice there, Stu. I'd love 1 each no. 41 when she's all ready for prime time! Now if I can just figure out where you guys have downloaded this crazy new mod from... and eventually get it set up with the version switcher. Saw that thread someplace at one point but couldn't find it when I ...

One of my heroes... I'd love to shake this man's hand one day. Sure wish he could franchise himself. With the prison budget we have here, Willie, can you imagine how much he could shave off the state budget? Sheesh.

:lol: :lol: :lol: "As I'm sure you're well aware, Mr Mabe was a flaming homosexual." Almost fell out of my chair. The other one was hilarious too. Think I'll try ordering a pizza from that guy. Wonder how he'd respond to a collect call from the U.S.?! Sure would be fun to find out! Thanks ...

I signed up for the last one as you might recall, but I never turned a wheel in AW I. RL is still just kicking butt on my simulator time these days, with no significant change in sight. Lately it's all I can do to squeak out a Friday night for Historic Encounters once a month, so I'm afraid it would...

2007 has been a tough year for aviation. Fortunately, there were dozens of other airshows over this past weekend, all over the world, and it seems this was the only show-related accident. I hope they never cancel airshows where I live. That fallen pilot would want his fellow WW2 aviation enthusiasts...

A true class act. The world is a lesser place without him.

:-k :!: Oh, there's no doubt! In fact, that's exactly what happened almost every time I aimed - kept "seeing" those darned checkered tails! Err... except for that one time when I shot down the other 109 with Soda in it... on that one, I had a moment of amnesia & thought I was FLYING on...

:lol: That's GREAT Falcon! I'd love a copy. Wonder if there'll be a vote to make this some kind of "official" FI decor? Not too many things I've seen so far say "Fighting Irish Sqdn" any better than this! While I'm thinkin' about it, I'd love that 334th P-51 skin too. That was a ...

My mistake leaving off the budget there. I'm talking USED and NOT expensive. Just looking for your basic Honda Accord here.... Corvettes and Porsche's need not apply. Gaming also is NOT a priority for this thing. Would like to keep it at $400 or less. I'm thinking that will get me something pretty d...

Gents, I need to buy a decent used laptop, but know almost nothing about them. Don't want to spend the $$$ for a brand new one. Mainly want it for wireless use while away from home, plus making/watching the occasional DVD. So I do want latest or near-latest wireless technology for decent speeds and ...

Does anybody know what the story is on this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AFJB8LEWNyo&mode=related&search= Found this & several others like it. Had no idea there was a chance of using the 6 DOF thing with IL-2, but apparently somebody's figured out a way. Sure would be nice, huh? If yo...

:shock: :beg: This goes up as wallpaper immediately! Then I gotta figure out how to make it into an actual wall-sized print, & hang it in my living room. If I do it right, it could feed my ego for years! :lol: Seriously Matt, that is gorgeous. I can't fully appreciate what it takes to do somethi...
