I'm 20 miles outside of NYC in North Jersey (deep in Sopranos territory)... Pizza here is epic!

Re: Tips for Chicago...

And whatever you do, stay in tourist oriented areas and don't get lost. Chicago is not a friendly place if you end up in the wrong neighborhood...

Re: Very Lucky Find

Looking at Martin's pics in detail, I see the window framing around the pilot's window panel looks movable or in some way different to the other AT-6/SNJ/Harvard examples I've seen... Any insight?

Re: It's a CONNIE !

Not knowing much about Constellations (which is already rapidly changing reading all this), I had no idea that the Connie at Greenwood Lake 4N1 was of the earliest type... I used to see it all the time when I took flying lessons out of that airport, had no idea it was so rare. Joe If you're anxious...

Very very nice! As I was born and raised in Gosport, this will definitely be my Hometown Harvard!

Re: New Captain of the Ship Aircraft + 50% off COTS this wee

Bastins, I just got the 377 today. It is wonderful, could be a new release practically. For the price it is a steal! Plus, since it will likely be at least a few months while the Connie goes through beta, this is a great time for us to learn and get used to COTS flying! My passengers on my first sho...

Re: New Captain of the Ship Aircraft + 50% off COTS this wee

And now, after all these years, I can FINALLY say I own the entire Accusim fleet! Gonna put in the High and the Mighty DVD, install my new toy, update and grab a couple of beautiful paints I've been eyeing up in the 377 forum... I gotta admit I'm a little intimidated right now!!!

Re: New Captain of the Ship Aircraft + 50% off COTS this wee

You need both the C377 plus COTS which is $33.5 combined. Absolute steel at this price. If I go to the store to the Boeing 377 Stratocruiser side and go to the bottom and click "Add Captain of the Ship" to get the bundle prize my total comes up to $24.25. Am I missing something? Does the ...

Re: New Captain of the Ship Aircraft + 50% off COTS this wee

I rarely visit forums anymore, cause no matter where you go, or what the subject is, you find the same kinda people, the ones whose sole purpose of being is to prove they know more than you do. It is tiring. That is why I love it here. Overall this is a terribly positive place to visit, despite thos...
