Is your pit a tip? MSFS Encounters of the first kind...
« on: August 28, 2020, 01:52:16 PM »
Well, Old One-Eye's is becoming homelier by the day. One day, once I have understood the dark and arcane art of creating liveries, I may even add some of the features you see here. Dogs optional of course.

Yes, that is a very fine 19 year old single malt - I have run out of Uncle Elmer's number 5 (that was something One-Eye used to smug... erm... deliver to any bush field from his days at Emma Field for those who remember)

Three monitors? Yup - all connected to a dual Geforce 1070, so all work in harmony. But as we have all already discovered, the Fjords are currently very poorly populated, Perhaps there's a secret deal between MSFS and ORBX - have you seen what they have produced already?

As for MSFS - there will be a few grumbles and complaints for a while yet, but the weather and that fraught butt-clenching flying is here already. Just select a typical alaska type day and fly around PNW looking for Cushman and Bear Gulch... some lovely One-Eye delivery weather there! Won't catch the rev'noo in the air on days like that!

Which is why we need a Beaver (The DHC2 kind, ya dirty minded lot!) Half a ton, anywhere, any place, any time.

Have fun until someone get's into Alaska - but never forget - the crash average in real Alaska is between one and two aircraft a day.

(probably mostly folk avoiding that Beaver "Dirty Gertie" that keeps dodging around with no lights on and below the radar...
All the best,

Naaahhh... 32's just fit the desk - 42's would have been "interesting"

I got rid of my desk.  It was in the way (of my pedal hardware).  ;D
(wall mounts work great for support.)  I do like the curve of your monitors though.

<--- See?!   :P
