11 posts by 8 people · 25 Mar 2001 16:41 UTC - 27 Mar 2001 06:04 UTC

Oh great! After spending the last 3 years learning how to drive a 1967 Grand Prix car, now I have to spend the next, what?, 5-10 years learning how to fly a 5,000 horsepower P-51, 10 feet off the ground, in traffic??? My wife is going to love this. Hey Sven, can your wife call my wife and talk to her?... -Tony- stephen wrote: > The aafo site has a preview of the Aircraft Pylon Racing Sim from Victory.

That looks really good.. two things, though - 1) I wanna see what a crash looks like 2) I know it's a reality-based sim, but come on - let's get some bridges, smokestacks, and skyscrapers in there... stephen wrote: > The aafo site has a preview of the Aircraft Pylon Racing Sim from Victory.

Nope, not joking. I mean, why not? you can still have lots of races around pylons and stuff. Hey, don't get me wrong, I'm a big flight sim fan. Unquestionably, standard, "real life" courses would be thrilling. I'd still like as many of the standard courses as they wish to include. Ever try Crimson Skies, though? There's room for it. I'm not talking about doing it in a cartoony way, either. Real life. Tony Jester wrote:

At least you don't have compression and rebound settings to worry about! -the Diamondcutter On Sun, 25 Mar 2001 11:02:12 -0800, Tony Jester <[email hidden]> wrote:

Nah, you'll need to deal with simple things like blade pitch and trim settings ;) -- Philip D'Amato [email hidden] 00 ZX-6R 00 S4 "Diamondcutter" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > At least you don't have compression and rebound settings to worry > about! > > -the Diamondcutter > > On Sun, 25 Mar 2001 11:02:12 -0800, Tony Jester <[email hidden]> > wrote: > > >Oh great!
