Technically unless today is your birthday, you'll be "40 years+xx days" old, so you'll belong to the "Between 40 and 50" class.

Anyhow, as already said, the important is "How do you feel"?

By the way, I am 50,5

I bought my first book on the aviation in WWII back in 1977 when i was 11 years old. Oleg don't ruin my childhood dreams please.

Most likely it derives from your own prejudices...

At 60 years old, I remember my first pc flight sim experience. It was called F-19, (I think), and there were no joysticks. It was a low resolution model played against an orange background (way cool). The whole sim was loaded on a few floppy discs, and it ran on Windows 3.1. Later more flight sims required DOS agility, and custom start-up discs. (anyone remember TFX?). Then US Navy Fighters came out and it required Windows95. The genre has come a long ways since then. Long live combat flight sims!

Heh, you mean this one?



And we thought it was as real as it can get - LOL.

BTW it's an actual screenshot, not a thumbnail. Resolution 320x200 pixels was common for games at that time.
Good old times...
