Pushing Tin Brendan recommends the movie Pushing Tin. A slightly more "hollywood" and less "aviation", but still a good watch! Here is the link on Wikipedia, and you can watch it for free on Hulu.com. PS, we know that likely all of the links for the movies will probably only work if you are in the US.

An interesting Post by Danton ended up spinning off into a brainstorm session of a new "MMO" flight simulator. Be sure to listen for our ideas! What did you think?

Payware models and 2D Cockpits Online Surveys#160;#38;#160;Market Research FlightSimX.Co.Uk Becomes FlightSimDaily.com This may seem a little sudden given Irsquo;d only just mentioned that I was thinking about moving domains, but the truth is, Irsquo;d been thinking about it on and off for over a year. The biggest reason for not moving prior to now was not being able to think of a good (hopefully!) domain name to use. I came up with FlightSimDaily for a couple of reasons.
