I'm 35 and happily single. Simming since C64
then Amiga 500. Light years ahead of PC's. Fav's Microprose's Gunship, F19, F117, and M1 Tank Platoon. Also Falcon with expansion missions. Finally can't forget Flight of the Intruder on Amiga. Dam fine for planning missions.

1) US Navy Fighter
2) LongBow & Longbow 2
3) Janes F15
4) Falcon 4.0
5) A couple of space sims (once a Han Solo wannabe) p.s. I'm from Malaysia (any Malaysian simmers out there?).

Wow!I am from Hamburg Germany 28 born in Vietnam and just finished with my service in the German Air Force (which is not much....hehe). I find the mails possted here to the age of simmers really intersting. I have just bought Falcon 4.0 I know its late but hey better than never at all. So once I start practicing I hope to meet more of you wonderful people out there. That is if time allows because I work as an IT-Consultant an travel alot. Did parachuting during my service time and alot of helicopters. greetings from Hamburg Germany

53 (in 2 wks). Amazing responses. Ages from 15 to 63? Flew little planes and scared the crap out of myself a few times. In my blood I suppose but the dollars and regs forbid the kind of flying I like to do. Soooo, sims. Lots of sims but only one at a time.I think F4 is here for a while. It will take a full year just to become proficient. Happy New Year pilots whoever and wherever you are.

40 till April.......We ran a similiar thread in a MS CFS forum recently....same demographics...average age of 41. Bought F4 and CFS together last October while waiting for my first PC (well, did have a Vic20 for a while. All my PC stuff has been work related) to deliver. Got CFS nailed, scratching the surface of F4. Married ~15yrs, with 3 Boys, 10, 8, 2. And they all love Aircraft. (The last one has an aviation link, he was conceaved after returning from the last MCAS El Toro Airshow. We hid behind some buildings near the runway and stayed to watch every last plane depart in the darkness, F-14/F-16/F-117/ and one by one the Blue Angels. Full AB up close. We will never forget that night obviously and miss the sound of F-18's we would hear daily. The Base closed for good last year. California took a large hit of base closures  ) ------------------

Hmmm.... this topic has been resurected. That's great. I didn't have a chance to post here the first time. I'm 31 and single. I'm also a college graduate (history) and unemployed (loving it - but it will not last).JANES: Hire me to do your cockpits please  . I've been simming since F-15 Strike Eagle (1984).
