"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

I wanna be a moderator once I get my full version of fsx. So you get all those pwetty pwanes and scenewy for fwee Grin Grin.

 
Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.

We don't get anything for free (unless you count lashings and marmalade) Hyperprep Grin Grin

I just happened to have the Lukla add-on, and I thought I might post some shots to tease the members who entered the contest Smiley

I have a question. It's probably stupid so you dont have to answer it.
Do you ever have planes as a prize? Undecided

I don't recall seeing an aircraft as a prize since I've been here......less than a year Smiley
Maybe someone else can answer that one for you Wink

I think there have been a few aircraft given as prizes.

Great shots Chuck. Smiley

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Yes there has been terrific aircraft given out as prizes.  And no, moderators don't get them for free, just the contest winners.   Smiley

Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed the crashed gray airplane on the left of the runway in picture 4?  Scary! Shocked
