Ask Fozzer about the SimV server. Every now and then there is a group flight. If you are in the US I am on in late afternoons/evenings while in the early afternoon/late morning Fozzer is putsing around almost every day.

Hello Crusader...from Oregon... :)...!
Welcome to Multiplayer!

Multiplayer on FS 2004 is really, REALLY, easy!... ;D...!

First thing...>>> Install this...."FS Host Spy", and put the Short-cut Icon on your desktop. http://www.chocolatesoftware.com/fshostspy/
Running that program will then reveal all the Multiplayer Servers on the Internet, who is on-line, and their IP Addresses, (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) which you can choose, and type into your FS 2004 Multiplayer Connect option!
Pressing Enter/Return in the Sim Multiplayer will reveal the "Chat Window"...time to talk!

A few Addresses to try...>>>
Sim V: 178.63.253.134 (Password Protected!).
New Zealand InSPire: 203.114.130.15 (Free).
Worlds Serious Pilots (WSP): 66.90.73.187. (Free).
Flightsim: 67.240.51.120. (Free).
...plus lots more out there!

Don't be surprised if it appears to be very quiet...other Folks may spot you, and turn-up...on your tail!... ;D...!

Its lots of fun, with loads of help available!

Paul...FS 2004...G-BPLF...and a flask of hot Tea... ;)...!

never around or napping?  ;D

Sorry Jet... :'(....

..the occasional snooze... ::)....

...and some rather nice weather over the past few days, so I have been taking advantage of it, and wheeling out my Motor-bikes out for various trips, instead of my little Cessna 150.

No Towering Cumulus storm clouds, and rain, to spoil my journeys! 

Back home again, for a while, Bike in the Garage, Cessna on the tarmac!... ;)...!

Paul.... ;D...!
