Awesome, Lip! I'm still trying to sort out if I have to buy a Prepar3d license AND an A2A 172 license, or can you just buy the plane and fly?

So do you have to buy prepared3d as the base game, or like DCS you just buy the module?

Hello gents, This fall, after my recent separation from the military, I hope to embark on a Professional Piloting Degree program with the Community College of Beaver County in Pennsylvania. I am very anxious and excited to get in the air for real! I know there are some downright fantastic simulators out there for GA aircraft, and I want to hear your guy's suggestions on how to get into it. I really know just about nothing about these GA sims, and could really use a guide to which one is the best for me. Through the school I will be up in Cessna 172R's and S's therefore, I am looking to grab the best 172 sim I can get my hands on. Disclaimer! I understand that a simulation isn't the real thing. I also understand that simulations can sometimes develope bad habits when you get in the real thing however, I think being familiar with the aircraft that I'll be dealing with is worth it for me as it will really allow me to feel like I'm not just starting completely from scratch. That said, I want to pick up the BEST sim that is out there, and from what I've read the A2A C 172 is hands down the best you can get with a close second being from Air-foil labs. I also have heard of FSX, Prep3d, and MFS 11 but I really know nothing about any of those sims or how the modules plug into them. I would really appreciate some help on where to begin. Thank you, -Shadepiece

That was awesome!!!!

Good luck, with what you're going off to do!

It was a short, but glorious streak indeed!

Awesome to see you again Roxmate!

Sorry gents, was called out to work one last time. Really wish I could have gotten on, but you know how it is. Schafer, we will get in the air together soon mate. Apologies for going missing right after offering to take you on my wing.

A pretty good start to this FiF!

Wish I could, but I'm out at work this weekend.

I actually have no idea if I have been getting them or not. I definitely would like to change it if I am not!

That's crazy! A really interesting website. It makes you realize just how hard that London was hit.

VKB is actually killing it tight now, but from what I hwar they only sell in waves. They can't keep up with production, so they sell out immediately. They did, according to their Facebook page, just buy a new manufacturing wearhouse which is exciting! I really want one of those Gunfighters!

Cooooooollll!!

There was a guy in ACG who had done a fully functional Hurricane pit. Had all the guages, and even got a hold of a replica gunsight.

Great news! I'm glad she is doing good.

@Jocassee I wanna record a podcast...

I'll have to pour him one when I get home tomorrow. Man was a childhood hero of mine.

I'm not exactly a skin maker, but I'd love to work with someone who could do some skins for me.

What is our process for doing up a skin exactly? I have an emblem that I'm rather fond of.

My initial impression was a winter uniform is what they were going for. I don't think their intent was for such an intimidating look. At least, I hope not.

Glad to have you officially Dudley!
