I've never used a flight sim.  I was thinking about getting one to
sharpen  my rusty flying skills.    Is this realistic?   Any
recommendations?   I have both Mac and Windows. In addition to the
program,  I assume I would have to buy a joy stick at least.   My
flying interests have changed over the years to low and slow.      Jerry


I think if might help if you were doing IFR.

I thought you bought a TailWind when you moved to Ind.
from California. Did you sell that?

BTW how is the banked runway coming?
In the winter time you could make it out of snow :)

I think I need to add some trees to this 3D.

Paul Lamar ...No rotor no motor.

I may actually build the banked runway just for fun.  A CH 701 with
100 hp can operate out of extremely short runways. I have a video of
one making repeated landings and take offs in less than 100 ft.,  also
shows using a curved road as a runway.   Yes I did sell the Tailwind.
I am used to the freedom of operating off my own strip and did not
like driving 27 miles to the airport.  Even the airport authorities'
reasonable rules (as opposed to their unreasonable ones) were
irritating.  Jerry
