    Definitely a FS9 nut here , Using a basic MS sidewinder stick , I use PAI , Ultimate traffic and some additional flightplans/ aircraft added from AVSIM . As for my preference for flying . PMDG's excellent 737NG , 747 series/PSS's A320 series and Level D's excellent 767.

    A couple of my favorite addons are FSBUILD which is a very realistic flightplanner whch works with another addon called Active Sky. So my flightplans are based on actual conditions including winds aloft.


    I try and fly a somewhat relalistic schedule based on what I find online or based on what I find at work.

    FS2004, CH products Pro Petals, MS Sidewinder Precision 2 Joystick for the (Buses), CH Products Yoke for everything else. As far as software goes, where do I begin. Entire PMDG 737 series, PMDG 744, PSS Airbuses (But I just use the panel and merge them with better freeware models, e.g. iFDG) Feelthere ERJ, Feelthere 737 Classic, countless payware GA a/c (even though im a jet kinda guy). Moving onto scenery, I have Fly Tampa - SFO, MIA, DXB, TPA, SAN, SEA, and MDW. Imaginesim (crap) - EWR, DTW, MSY, and DEN. I would like to get Cloud 9's LAX. That about covers it...

    I dont get to do it as often as I used to but its a great way to kill time and wait for the misses to dry her hair ;)
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

    I use FS2004. As for the joystick, I'm almost positive it's the Microsoft Sidewinder (or something like that..). I enjoy flying my Song 757s. Other than that, I create my own aircraft using the paintkits. I operate my own airline using an Airbus 340-200, Boeing 777-200, and Embraer 170-100. My aircraft are from ProjectOpensky, IFDG, and Dreamwings. I download all my panels and sounds from http://www.avsim.com. FS has become a life for me, lol. I recently flew from Athens, Greece to New York in real time. Excellent flight (nearly 11 hours)!
