Can I say Jealous!

Fancy burning a copy of the cd, and I will give you happy smiles...

Master & Commander...Hmmm...You sound like you have a plethora of wonderful soundtracks, did I mention Top Gun rocks, fantastic movie. What happens in it again?

Now combat flight simulator games, particularly those involving WWII fighters: Different story altogether. God knows how many hundred hours I have on different fighters. I'm still madly in love with the F4U Corsair...

I agree, not the same if your not chasing after enemy aircraft or strafing a train. Look at me i've made 10 perfect landings in these 50 knot crosswinds, but how many japanese zeros have you shot down while flying upside down with a broken rudder.

I have my little collection of soundtracks (about 26 now)

Well there's two versions of the Red October soundtrack, I think I have the one with less music on it, but still have the main theme

Give us your details, and I'll see what I can do (cd-writer has been acting up somewhat)

Shhhhhhh Gareth, It's a sim thread now

not just flight sims. I have train sim too

(listen to music with pace for that

)

For a bit of entertainment today, I tried the IL*2 Sturmovik PC WWII Combat Flight Sim, and I sucked. So far the only "kill" I've got is the conning tower is I was trying to take off

Then I found the "Easy" setting. Well at least I didn't have to worry about take-off anymore

too bad my landings are even worse

if I can find the airport again

So off I got to do some "Dog-Fighting". Hey, with my landings and take-offs being sooo good, I don't have to worry about getting shot down. They would be doing me a faviour as it would save me from crashing the plane myself

and I get to "die" a hero

Well got a "kill" this morning

then crash landed the plane

Hey it's the only way to land dudes. My plane will end-up having more planes I've crashed marked on it than enemy planes killed

Too many buttons to push. Hard to workout which is the right one

Just as well I'm flying for the Nazis

When I get good, I fly for the Rushkeys, then if I can work this game out I'll find the Allies
