Hello Everyone

[wmiller]

I'm Bill, and I've been playing seriously (again) for about 3 years now. Injury forced me to lay off for almost 7 years. Been playing on and off for over 20 years.

I play mostly munis here in Tucson, AZ but do venture out on the resort courses in the summer when the snowbirds are gone and prices are more reasonable. I play every Sunday, year round, and even manage to get in some extra rounds during holidays and such. I walk, pushing a Sun Mountain 3-wheeler, even in the summer time, although last year when it got over 105 I darn near had a heat stroke. I may ride next summer when it gets the hottest.

I apologize, as I put a '10' in the handicap entry when registering when I really don't have a handicap anymore. I typically shoot in the mid to high 70s when I keep score, but I mostly don't bother with that as I play this game one shot at a time. To me, it's all about exececuting the shot at hand. What happened before and what happens after doesn't matter. To me that is...

Other hobbies include shooting, pistolsmithing, playing home machinist, and FPSs (Crysis, Far Cry 2, etc) and flight sims on the 'puter.

Hit 'em well.

Welcome Bill. I like your way of thinking about score although I will probably be getting a handicap next spring. Good to see another Flight Simmer out there. If flying commercial jets , I prefer the Mad Dog with steam gauges. Beechcraft is my choice for GA.

In FSX I mostly fly either a P51 or a Mooney, in IL2 it's a Corsair, and in Falcon 4.0 it's a F16. My favs are the military props though.

Still use FS9 here. Computer is a bit dated. I'm also a fan of the DC3. I like your choice for IL2. Nothing beats the sound of a big powerful radial. Haven't flown military stuff in a while. Maybe i should look into IL2. Equipment here includes a yoke, joystick and foot pedals.

Biggest problem with the Corsair is putting it down on a flattop :O

I use Saitek x52pro stick/throttle quadrant and pedals.

I have a iMac 24" with a upgraded video card and a 200Gb Win partition. Replace two computers with one. :)
