Just making sure. I have seen that same link posted in a couple of other places, and it was presented as fact. I guess I just assumed the same thing was happening here.

You guys do know that this is a satire website? That new alert is a joke.

Get the mac version. It won't give you splinters.

You can use that for flying?!?!?!?! Man, where did I put mine...

Something that classy must be expensive. I think I could afford to pay two bills for that, but I would bet it would be close to 3 bills. Quality doesn't come cheap.

Well, it looks like this is a Saitek place. It still remains to be seen what I will get. There are so few reviews of the Afterburner, and they are mixed reviews. That scares me a little bit. Saitek seems to be a known entity. It would be cool if you could get the EVO and the X-52 throttle as a unit.

Dude, you mean to tell me you're not using a mouse+keyboard to fly? OMG, n00b! I bet you don't even reverse the vertical axis! ;) I have an X-52 and for me it's just about the perfect setup but I agree about the twist rudder... as soon as I have some money to burn I think I'll check out the new Sai...

I thought about getting that one, but I am not really a fan of rudder twist sticks. Just a personal preference, though.

Anybody have this setup? What do they think of it? I am all for the super great sticks and all of that, but I have to balance it with the fact that I have other things that are greater financial priorities. So, with that said, is the Thrustmaster Afterburner FFB HOTAS a fair setup?

Weekends will be my primary flying days, so all is good on that front. Thanks for the warning.

If you don't know of this site its worth checking out for Free DL's and other software.

Thanks. That is really helpful. I appreciate that.

Hiya and welcome. Good luck with the Flight School. I did some of that during ATC training like Principles of Flight and figuring how to do Vectors without the use of calculators. All that and I still can't figure out how to do a 3-point landing with the FI during online play. :lol: I can belly lan...

Thanks for the reply. What I meant by flying in the same airframe was, do you all fly the same model of aircraft, or do you pick your own model? For example: 1 person picks a P-38, another 4 pick Spits, 2 more on Mustangs, and so on. Or, does the entire group fly a single model airframe for that mis...

Hey guys. My name is Dan Shea. I am new in town. I just applied to join the FI, but I do have to admit that I am not ready to fly just yet. I have a full-time job, am going to school, and I am starting the process of getting my pilot's license. So, that means I won't be able to start flying for a co...
