Ah. It appears that this is on a Canadian channel, History Television, which I don't get here. I do get "The History Channel" but it appears to be a different channel altogether. Thanks, tho, for the alert. Flying in those old DC-3s was sure an experience. Imagine, when I graduated high school and went off to the Air Force, I flew in a DC-6. Jets were just coming into existence, and none of the airlines had them yet.
Flying in Alaska brings it's own set of weirdness with it. It looks like this program involves just such flying, in the Canadian Northwest? Yukon Territory? Pretty rough country up there. Julie worked up in that area.

I like to fly the DC-3 in my Flight Simulator. I will start out at Nikolski (where I used to work,) and fly to Dutch Harbor. The real fun is doing it in weather. The Dutch Harbor strip is built right alongside a mountain, so close that, when you're landing you can't see the tops of the mountain. I mean, the mountain is right there. The strip is on a narrow piece of land that runs along the shore.

landing by instruments alone? that's crazy, hehe crazy fun i'm sure. no wonder you have white hair
my dear uncle Emile usta love flightsim, i bought him the Special 2004 100 years of flight aviation with the 1st airplanes in it. and a Saitek USB Stick And Throttle Joystick. cost a pretty penny and he loved it so much, he was proud of that when i gave it to him lol a happy man. he was remarquable.
He had flight sim 10 but its so demanding, u need a really good graphics card to play it. anything above radeon 4850 and nvidia 8800GTX can play it decently. (I wonder if the new 5970 2GB can play it well, hehe)
i prefer ground level fun myself, i get nose bleeds on the 2nd step of a ladder, lol. (not!)
Oh! There's this airport level in Left4Dead, called "dead air" has many planes on the ground destroyed, hey its a zombie apocalypse, but there is 1 brave soul who can pilot an Army plane, dunno the model of the plane but its below if you want to see it.
ok so this is the start of the level, do you recognize one of the dudes? hint: army uniform, white beard,
i put it here just cuz we can see Bill in his army uniform, you were army werent you or marines?
Ok after the survivors exit the saferoom, keep your eye at the center of the screen, that's one heck of a plane crash, best to watch in HD fullscreen.

But here's the clip of the plane we take off in after winning the fight, you can fast forward to 4:50 in this clip for the take off.

Before that its just a guy having fun playing the level. Good stats tho, got an achievement award good for him.
And wondering about the movie credits at the end? its cuz the game is actually 5 big different zombie movies, yes, we're actors in this game not just a player like traditional firstperson shooters, its fun. especially since its co-operative play, coop is built right in, with friends, omg so fun, and we use microphones, talk and laugh, good buddies. anyone here has that game check out my L4D group on steam : http://steamcommunity.com/groups/BigRL4D Free to join and play together. See you in the movies hehe

Well, my subscription runs out sometime soon, so I am about to go thru "Sign-up hell" again. Actually, if I remember correctly, it went pretty well last time. So, if something doesn't work, I'll be all over Vicky (no, not THAT way, dammit! ) Mebbe I'll get to use that "live advisor" thingie. If you can use it from outside the site.
But, don't get your hopes up. I ain't going away!!!!

I like it Walt. I like it!!!WalterB wrote: Just another day today. Thought I'd drive out and check up on how my business is doing.
... An all in one place!!!
Hot sexy, gorgeous, voluptuous babes come in from off the road, tired and drained. Here they have an opportunity to grab a bite. They can get some gas for their vehicles. Then they can also launder their clothes. The ones they have on!!! Yes!!! ... of course, stripping down in the process. Then it's off to the showers...
Hey do you need some extra secret cams strategically placed around the parameter of the place? Hire the security expert HT!! ...

I'm trying to get a post up about the AVN show in Las Vegas, but am having the usual trouble uploading a video with music of the pics I took. I have tried a video-hosting site, and it says it will take 2 or 3 days for the file to be ready.
If anyone knows a good video hosting site that they use and like, I'd sure be appreciative.

Thanks, John. While looking at a Sunny Vid, I found this little gem. Look in the background and you might see some old bearded fart working his ass off (watching Sara and Alexis work theirs off.)

After looking around YouTube and searching AVN 2010, I decided that it was ok to post my clip there. Many of my pictures came out fuzzy, and the conversion process seems to have lost some quality, too. But anyway, here's the link. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cB9X0dNQqjY If you search AVN 2010, you'll come up with a lot better stuff than mine.

You're so very crazy!!! Hehe.
It's good to see you there. Sara and Alexis seem to be having fun too. ....You look like their bodyguard.
How's Vegas? Cool like the rest of the country?? .. I'd say in the 60's maybe 70s?
