Cool I'm part of the future...

Cool. Some of the next generation simmers like I am/was. I remember my father telling me a story about when I was either 3 or 4 and I was trying to teach my grandfather (who flew in the Vietnam war) how to land an aircraft.

There also is a photo of me at 6 or 8 (can't remember which) flying a helicopter virtually with my sidewinder joystick in my lap. Ah those were the days.

I am right now 16, I love to continually do flight sims and it actually helped me decide what I want to go to college for, aerospace engineering. I also am right now trying to get a part time job to pay for pilot's lessons since I got my first one for Christmas. Right now have clocked .5 hours of flying time in a logbook for real life and probably several thousand virtual hours.

My son is 1 and a half and he is straight over to the computer the minute he hears the 109 start up! If he so much as hears a hint of CloD starting up and I dare to change my mind and start up another program, he kicks off!

Looks a bit like Churchill to me.
'Tis a sign.


He's lucky to have a dad who will show him museums and aircraft.

A young Churchill,perhaps?

He has an obvious affinity for Rise of Flight
