Sad day for Mxsmanic

... Mike Ash writes: The bit in the article where he talks about a simmer being asked to land a passenger plane after the pilots have been debilitated is pretty funny. Absolutely no mention whatsoever of the difficulty or improbability of actually pulling off such a feat. It is simply assumed that it could be done. It can easily be done. No it cannot. It would end in disaster. |

When it's tested, either with an actual in-flight crisis or by having somebody set it up as an experiment, then I will believe it. Until then, please do not act as though the unknown is certain. And no, I don't mean testing it in a simulator. The simulators are good enough for the FAA and the airlines, so they're good enough for me. |

I doubt an old DOS version will recognise a USB joystick, and I don't think you'll find a game port that will plug into your 64 Bit DualCore motherboard. Since DOS didn't support USB, there's no need to recognize a USB joystick in DOS applications. |
