Yes, I finally experienced aerodynamic lift and centripetal forces from the cockpit of an airplane. LOL
You guys need to stop knocking on FS9. Not that long ago it was, and still is, the bomb... and it routinely gives me 30 FPS. :lol:

I got a discovery flight for Father's Day and I had not gotten around to taking it until now. I don't think I've actually landed yet. :twisted:

I'm still running FS9. I have FSX, but don't get the frame rates on my old machine. Hmmm, new computer for Xmas maybe? :D
