I try to make the MacDill Airfest every year. This year was a must as it being the last show for at least 3-4 years. Sadly, it sounds like they are tearing down the old historic hangers to build bigger ones as the base transitions from the KC-135 to KC-46. The old hangers are the ones seen during th...

Just shot these looking for building jaggies.

I didn't notice any, but I'll look closer next flight.

Lewis, I've always been skeptical about any miracle tweaks I've read about over the years, but this one actually works. I was shocked at how much better the overall sim looked when I followed the simple and original directions. I say original and simple, as I think I've seen some after the fact twee...

Dudley,

I just watched The Pacific for the second time when it came up on Netflix a few weeks back. I don't think I could pick which I thought was better, BOB or The Pacific. I am a bit partial to the Pacific theater with my dad having been a B-29er on Tinian.

Dudley, You may have already heard that Spielberg and Tom Hanks are working on a new project, "Masters Of The Air". It follows the 100th Bombardment Group in Europe and is an add-on to epics Band of Brothers and The Pacific. It's due out in January. Another scene in Empire of the Sun that ...

Empire Of The Sun is IMO one of the greatest war time films ever made. That's not even taking into account that the P-51 fly-by scene brings tears or goosebumps every time.

The 8 1/2-year-old, son of the gentleman I go out with is known as the youngest person to free dive with a Mako. He started shark diving when he was 4. This little guy is actually the one who named Lemonade a couple of years ago on a dive. He barely comes up to my waist and his free dive fins are al...

Lemon sharks (pics 2, 5, and 6) and Silkies (pics 1,3 and 7) are probably the most fun to swim with. They tend to run really big and show up in big numbers. Being surrounded by a large number of big sharks is something has to be experienced to realize how awesome nature can be. The closest Silky in ...

I certainly don't mind at all. I took that with a handheld GoPro. She was only a foot or so away from the camera in that shot. In the video version of that image, I have my hand on her head as she went by. BTW. The shark in that photo is the famous "Lemonade". She's a good-sized lemon shar...

Sitting here recuperating from covid, editing flightsim screenies, and some dive pics. Thought you guys might like these. Approaching 70 years old and I decided to add another outdoor hobby. This last year I took up open water swimming with sharks, which turned out to be way cooler than what I was e...

I think I've done at least three play-throughs of the whole series.

Back during the A2A Bonanza beta testing. Being on the team is not for the faint hearted.
