Congrats - bet that was a nice surprise.
So when are you ordering the new PC then.
Tell you what, though - swap you 'posties' - all mine ever brings are bills, bills and more bills.

Funny you should mention that, Eric. It has always been accepted that the poor capture of the Localiser in FS9 has been a Microsoft failing and we've all learnt to hand fly into it at unrealistically shallow angles to save all the weaving about, right?
Apart from my Classic Brit flying, I also have a bit of a thing on the side with some Boeing stuff :roll: Including the Tinmouse II 737-200 project. In a recent update, Bob Scott the developer addressed this particular FS9 shortcoming and has fixed it! Don't ask me how, but a Boeing 737-200 with the Tinmouse panel will intercept the Localiser at a 45 degree angle perfectly cleanly and smoothly and with no weaving.
