I am not a great fan of flying and I do apologise Neil but as Wombat and Milo are mates of mine I didn't think they would mind me sneaking a peak.
I too actually enjoyed that very much. I found it interesting they used a computer keyboard and not a (I think) joystick during the approach and landing.
If I was a passenger on that flight and any I have been on I always find the best part of the flight is when the plane comes to that complete stop at the end

Ha ha, Doug, just the opposite for me, I love every moment of flying, especially take off & landing.
It is a pretty boring way they operate, tap in the new heading or speed & the computer does the job of getting to the required attitude.
I loved it so much I went to flying school years ago as I wanted to prove to myself I could do it myself. Went solo then did a basic aerobatic course so I could do loops & spins etc & scare the pants off anyone silly enough to come up with me. Worked too!

Not wrong mate .I am afraid you will need more than a sleep.
He must be asleep himself .He usually comments before you finish posting.
I can't wait for his response...Mongrel.

Nope, no improvement, downloaded that program but can't point to it to be a default Gif openner.
I'm over it, over it to be sure to be sure now.
