There seems to be an up tick in Political commentary in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site we know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religiours commentary out of the fourms.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politicion will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment amoung members. It is a poison to the community. We apprciate compliance with the rules.

Tim,
I see you do flights to the moon in Orbiter. Just curious how that is done. I guess you would speed up the flight instead of running it for 2 days.
I tried the Moon run and the Mars run a couple of times. Always wrecked my telemetry and missed the planets.. Couldnt slow down and change course.. arrghh...
This is something i've been toying with for a while now.

It is incredibly hard to get hold of any decent images / 3-views. I only happen to have some stuff because my dad worked on the project, even then all I have acess to is a folder of 40 odd photos and a non-published 3 -view
:focus:
My excuse for the image is that I spend enough time in GMax for it to count as my desktop.
Found it on an old CD. As I remember, it had "issues" flying in FS9, but if anyone wants it, I'll be happy to get you a copy.Mike Stone did one for FS 2002... Tom Clayton might have a copy kicking around somewhere.

Don't need a fancy picture. I like the minimalist approach. Performance rather than Frills. Besides, when im sat infront of the PC, Im using an app, surfin the web or even buzzin the odd barn or two so i don't even see the desktop. Don't believe in flooding it with shortcuts either.
I did however find some of the posted images to be first-class.
