  1. Computers! wow...last time it was a scapy diary with pencil marks all over it LOL!
  2. thats right, similar principle, the plane (in the german planes) should be vertical, so in your example, to need to turn to the right to bring the indicator back to 12o'clock
  3. tends to be maily german planes and will only work in the game when you are flying to waypoints, it is the next one that they are pointing towards. some allied planes have it also i believe
  4. that does not make sence painless. the chap i spoke to took my booking striaght away, so she is obviously mis-informed. i would ring back and tell them i sent you......
  5. Excellent chaps!, Prices are per night, they will take credit card details but only take payment when you leave. You must cancel AT LEAST 3 days before other wise you will be charged.
  6. I contacted the Red Lion at Duxford this morning ref Flying Legends on the 11th and 12th July. They are now taking bookings. Gambling that I will be able to afford it, I have made a reservation for a single room. The only thing this year is that they are insisting on a 2 night booking, so i have booked for friday and saturday nights. The room rates are £69.95 for a single and 99.95 for a double. Their phone numer for those that may be interested is 01223 832047 http://www.trlh.co.uk/ Friar

    SAITEK X52

    if you have the latest version of the drivers (sd6) you dont get a 3d model (which is a shame). You just get a table in the profile software. All you have to do is assign a key to a function in the game control panel and then assign that key to a button in the profile software. the x52 latest version also uses a .pr0 file extension. You can be as complicated as you want. I do use the 3 modes and the shift button opperated by the little finger button to give me 36 possible setting on the 3 toggle buttons. I also use the shift for some of the other functions. The only time I need my keyboard is for "Q" to bail out. Its well out of harms way.....
  11. Refreshing to note that all candidates were from across the pond......
  12. I use voice activated all the time, just have to watch mic sensitivity that's all, and not eat apples when flying gunner for jabo, or sandwiches, or slurp tea, he gets up set about in flight catering for some reason. glad to have you fly with us sir. Friar
  13. Rubbish, a dog in need, no matter what the circumstances, should be able to call upon his mates for help and advice.
  14. I use www.showmypc.com Its free and is simple to use with no software to install. Once on the home page you get 2 options, show my pc and view a pc. Obviously each person selects the correct option. The person who is opening up their pc will be asked to run a program (which does not stay on the pc). This will generate a key sequence. This key sequence is given to the person waiting to view your machine. Once used this key is disposed of so can not be used again. If anyone wants to use it with me to get a feel for it, just let me know. Another piece of software i have use is www.logmein.com This is again free but requires some software to be downloaded and installed. But it is useful if you access another pc on a regular basis, again if anyone wants to talk to me about this I will be glad to help. Cheers Friar.
  15. Ha Ha...I laugh in the face of your 1000+ results...... No anti-virus, spooler stopped, printer disabled, only 18 processes running at time of the test...... Do I officially have the worst results?

  17. Balloon priest wins Darwin Award for stupidity Friday, January 2, 2009 A daredevil Catholic priest who was killed after floating out to sea suspended by 1,000 helium-filled party balloons has been honoured for his idiocy. Reverend Adelir Antonio di Carli had been trying to break a record for the longest time in-flight with party balloons when he disappeared. Three months later his body was discovered off the south-eastern coast of Brazil. But now he has won the 2008 Darwin Awards which commemorates people who die in a stupid fashion. Rev di Carli planned to use the money raised in his attempt to break the 19-hour record to fund a "spiritual" rest-stop for truckers in Paranagua, home to Brazil's largest grain port.
  18. Welcome m8. I am the voice of reason around here. Should you feel at any time that the pressures of life are getting a bit too much, pop round to my place, my door is always open (unless I have a bottle of Priory Special Reserve Port open) to listen in confidence, well depending on how much cash you give me, as a donation of course, the story content and whether I will need to blert it out over Team Speak if you get on my six. I look forward to flying with you. Cheers Friar.
  19. Welcome to the pound. The only stupid questions are the ones you dont ask! We have all been there (some are still there, even worse some will never find "there" let alone get to it!) Our matriarch, Blairgowrie, will be along soon no doubt to formally welcome you and to dish the dirt on how to get up in the skys with us. Could I point out at this early stage that there is an un written rule (devised by me) about shooting your chaplain down, and the fact that I would request you dont. Other than that, if you need someone to talk in confidence to, that is what i am here for. I represent the Priory of St Oleg, a nondemononational group. For more info search the forum or even "google" me. (The last time I did I managed to return only 1, yes ONE hit !!) Oh, when I say in confidence, it does depend on the amount on cash you give me, the amount of young nubile women in the story and how often you get on my six. Cheers Friar

    TS Display

    Guys, I am currently helping fritzl get up and running with TS Display. I sent him the .exe and .dll files which he put into a folder. He can run it OK and get it working on his desktop correctly but when he starts the game up it does not appear. We have checked his screen resolution and it is the same as the game is set to. Does any one have any other ideas as to what it might be. He is running vista home premium. UPDATE: Spoke to Rico and he said that he has not been able to get ts display to work with vista. We are investigating ts overlay
  21. forgot to add.... I also have a "Y" shaped splitter that I plug my headset and speakers into. When flying or just want the headset I turn the external speakers off, that saves a lot of "faffing about" as well.
  22. This is from Amazon Uk but I am sure you could find something similar from the US/Canada. http://www.amazon.co.uk/StarTech-com-ft-Speaker-Extension-Cable/dp/B00066HPUG Hope that helps Cheers Friar
  23. Glad you enjoyed it. It was an award winner. One of our former members, an excellent guy called Bbloke has a web site dedicated to il2 films. I will try and find you the link. Friar
  24. I actually shed a tear at the end. its the only movie I have actually wanted to copy to cd permantly.
