    Off we go into some nice blue pla-anes...

    ...flying high into the north! Sadly, I don't have enough time to pre-fly both legs in FSX. Anyway, here's a shot: It should be easy to guess via which Airport I'll be travelling today... It was a rather quick decision to fly to Norway again this year, from Hanover to Bergen, on a ERJ-190...

    Beneath The Wing, Part 6: Walk The Line

    Strange, I never noticed the wingwalkers, they should be visible, at least from some seats, right? Will have time to take a closer look tomorrow... Might post more about it in my blog.

    Gaming FSX ... Oh Fsx...

    Well, in the beginning of my "serious" flight simming (marked by the purchase of the Jetstream 41 last summer) I planned a flight from Sogndal, Norway to the UK. To enjoy the beautiful scenery and plane I was switching to external views quite often. Then, as I was halfway to Bergen, a white...

    Wow, Berlin is getting a new DC-3, it's on the way from Coventry, I just saw it. Beautiful I saw a Ju-52 in flight, but this was much better.

    60 FPS? I don't even come close to that with any game or simulator, and only exceed it with Orbiter. At least consoles mean more FPS for less money. I hate them anyway. :P

    WOW! Looks like I was lucky... spent the day at the Heinz Nixdorf MuseumsForum, it just was a bit cloudy (cool, they had a computer of the Gemini spacecraft, and a three screen FSX setup with Thrustmaster Warthog) Bielefeld, close to the route I took, even made it into the Tagesschau with some...

    Internet Gravity, space movie directed by Alfonso Cuaron. Trailer up!

    I had no hope to see anything that could get me into a cinema, after the end of a certain 8-part series (one of them directed by Cuaron) :shifty:. But this certainly sounds good: Bad Astronomy: The Gravity of the Situation

    Oops, to late. Well, it was just a cheap energy drink... Horrible stuff... Combined with a few shots of other alcohol and a few bottles of beer. I guess this was nothing, but it was my first time. Walking was a bit hard... But I was able to start my computer, launch FSX and take off and land...

    News Heathrow reopens after Boeing Dreamliner 787 fire

    The batteries are below the passenger deck, wouldn't this mean alot of damage when there are burn marks on top of the plane? I have no problems with the critics and I certainly didn't talk about those who do it in a constructive way, but things like using "funny" names for the plane as soon...

    New Release D3D9Client Development

    Oh, sorry jarmonik, I tried it after you posted R11c, just forgot to post my results. The local lights work perfectly. I did not have to replace the code section you posted above. Thanks for the fix!

    News Asiana 777-200 Crash on landing at SFO

    Scary how it moves backwards with the tail in the air... NTSB is quick, looks like the recorders were in a good condition. The Aviation Herald: Accident: Asiana B772 at San Francisco on Jul 6th 2013, touched down short of the runway, broke up and burst into flames

    Scenario Historical accurate orbital elements

    If I remember correctly, the request function works great, I've already used it for a Soyuz T-15 scenario. So it should have the data you need.
