Default I'm not a real Pilot?

I hope your next medical goes well.

Dudley was being pretty darn nice to you, my friend. But that's a
pretty snarky remark.

You really need to realize who have tried to be your friends on this
list.

I remember a few months ago when there was a thread on navigation, and
I explained how pressure pattern navigation works and how it could
complement celestial navigation (from my KC-135 days a few decades
ago). You actually seemed appreciative of the information, even though
it doesn't really apply to current-day technology.

Unfortunately, you don't show that very often. There is a LOT of
experience to draw from on this list, anything from GA to airlines to
military, and all are willing to help.

Oh, well. FWIW, I spent a couple of hours tonight flying a Piper
Archer in FS9 from BZN, up the Madison River valley, past Ennis, over
Virginia City to the Jefferson River valley, crash and dash at Dillon,
followed I-15 to Butte, then over Homestake Pass and back to BZN where
I landed safely. I had just downloaded a bunch of scenery enhancements
for FS9 and wanted to see what they looked like.

The scenery enhancements (FSGenesis) looks great, and it was fun
flying from the comfortable chair of my office, beer just an arm's
length away, and flying over places I fly in an Archer in real life.
Not the same, but still fun.

Take care, my friend.
