Default New Life For Cliffs Of Dover?

Hi all,

My new son who is four months old is very interested in Cliffs of Dover. The photo is of me carrying him around the Old Warden museum and next to their Hurricane.

I will post more photos of him soon admiring the images of Cliffs of Dover as I fly!



Best Regards,
MB_Avro.

Another Hurricane pilot in the making!

My boy (8yrs old) has got to the stage where he'll come up and ask to play 'The Flying Game!"

I'll bump the difficulty down to easy and get him into the low level interception mission. Every so often he'll come and get me to reset the mission.

Hmmm! Might be time to get a second PC up and running!

Trouble is, he's a bit wary of the flash from the camera. Hence the closed eyes!!

Cool I'm part of the future...

Cool. Some of the next generation simmers like I am/was. I remember my father telling me a story about when I was either 3 or 4 and I was trying to teach my grandfather (who flew in the Vietnam war) how to land an aircraft.

There also is a photo of me at 6 or 8 (can't remember which) flying a helicopter virtually with my sidewinder joystick in my lap. Ah those were the days.

I am right now 16, I love to continually do flight sims and it actually helped me decide what I want to go to college for, aerospace engineering. I also am right now trying to get a part time job to pay for pilot's lessons since I got my first one for Christmas. Right now have clocked .5 hours of flying time in a logbook for real life and probably several thousand virtual hours.
