Hi there.

All I remember from TGIs in Britain was the fairly decent hamburgers and steaks, but they really couldn't fix up a decent martini or old fashioned worth a damn. Of course it could be due to the quality of that particular barstaff. Good burgers at times, and the décor was quite agreeable, albeit slightly tacky.

Was I the only one though this was abundantly clear? A bit like "It is generally inadvisable to eject over the area you just bombed"

They likely just saw it as a hunk of metal with a few thousands rounds of ammo in it, with very little respect for the aircraft or its historical significance. A bit like if we should dig up a German u-boat and plunder it for the canned goods. It may be a translation problem, but they refer to it as treasure, not a historical artefact or an archaeological find. The historian in me cringed slightly at their manhandling of it. If I may use my favourite Indiana Jones quotes, "It belongs in a museum" But yes BA, quite uncivilised.

The 32-bit "fix" might work for windows, but you will not be able to run 64-bit applications and I seriously doubt it will have any effect on applications. 32-bit W7 is nothing more than a vestigial appendage on the windows 7 software.

update, looks like the troglodytes are scavenging it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9LsK74J_W0&feature=player_embedded#! I get the part of disarming it, but it looks a bit heavy handed. Way to preserve history chaps. Seems like it was in Egypt Trib, the video description is " I found the treasure ) Al Wadi al Jadid Desert / Egypt 2012.03 - JP-Poland - SPITFIRE of the Second World War ( Propably there was battle near Al-Alamajn - 1942 .... Egyptian army took the ammo from a plane"

I hope so too, shame they did not take pictures of the serial number or markings. If they did, it would be very easy to find the pilot and whether he managed to walk home. Although given the unspoiled nature of the find, it being anywhere close to settlements is unlikely. It would appear the pilot left the aircraft after landing. I do not quite understand why the prophub would be seperated from the rest of the plane though.

Video of it posted on the 1c forums http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFe8CsOdoG8&feature=player_embedded#!

I would be not only slightly turned on by that. Some serious plane porn right there Snacko.

The 32-bit is truly dreadful, as it leaves systems with a grand total of about 1.5-2 Gbs of RAM. If worse comes to worst, you can always procure a version from an alternate source.

I'll help you out mr P, I can get on TS in a bit if you want to.

When will people stop using that "Requiem for a dream" song.

I have recently been spending a little time in Benchmark sims mod for Falcon 4. I must say, I am quite enjoying it. It has some of the best avionics I have seen in a game, on par with DCS A10, but much easier to learn. The startup procedure is really easy to get going. All you need is an old falcon 4 disc, or you get obtain one less than legally (I can point you in the general direction) You can do everything from hunting SAMs, to moving mud with GBUs, and dogfighting mig29s at the speed of sound. I really recommend it, you can get it up and running in a very short time. Anyone interested?

This one?

Farther is used for physical distances, while further is more figurative or metaphorical. Ex. "The line must be drawn here, this far, no further" "The petrol station is farther from the shop than the bakery" Although as a caveat, there are no grammatical consensus on the two adverbs.

That is one thing I miss when living in the city, you cannot really see the night sky any more. Good pictures there Rox, keep it up. What kind of rig are you running?

Anyone know the word for that weird shudder you get when you read stuff like this?

Physics porn right there.

Which MSSFB do you have, the USB version (MSFFB2), since I know that one works (I use it myself), as for track IR, the 3 software should work just fine, you may even be able to the later software.

I wonder what the causality here is, are they flying so low just to show off they have huge balls, are they unable to achieve higher altitude due the having such big balls?

Welcome mate! You just joined the best damn place on the internet (that part that does not have naked chicks in it at least).

Welcome!

I live there now, hence the article.
