I feel old.
Using a good quality 32" led TV helps a lot with games though.


That's too bad, contacts are a real handy alternative, for that special occasion.

Any marketing-type chappy doing demographic research for flightsim games needs to check out this thread...

I'm short-sighted and awaiting the onset of age-related long-sightedness, with the dreaded bifocals. *Sigh*

Why do you all think you need bifocals?? There are varifocals, reading glasses, distance glasses and intermediates.... Bifocals are no good for flying...

Well there is no way I will get bifocals! I would rather have another pair of glasses. By the time I have decked myself out with TiR hat, headphones etc, putting a different pair of glasses on will just be another part of my pre flight check...
