If you were flying any where on the eastern side of the USA tonight, with real time weather, then you basically saw this bunch-o-clouds! Lots of swirling winds as well that turned this flight into a carnival tilt-a-whirl ride. OVA767F flight from KBWI-KSTL .... <note to KSTL maintenance, restock barf bags, please>

TFFJ is on of the History Channel's 10 most deadly airports. After 2 missed approaches and a rather hard landing, the passengers departing my flight SC006 referred to me as 'Skipper' and my first officer as 'Gilligan'. My only condolence was that it didn't take 3 hours.

Honestly, I have done a decent landing at TFFJ .... about 3 years ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EcIFiJX5jlk

HANGAR/DOWNLOADS / For nVidia Card users
« on: December 11, 2011, 10:15:00 PM »
OK ... this may be common knowledge to everyone, and I think at one time it was to me as well. 
I updated my nVidia drivers to the latest version and 'jaggies' appeared all over the place. It had been awhile since the last update, so I kind of forgot the process. After looking around on the 'net for awhile it started coming back. There is an application called "nvidiaInspector". This little tool helps set the profiles for the nvidia card. Here is the link to post over at simforums that describes it all. http://www.simforums.com/forums/nhancer-settings-for-new-drivers-updated-v1932_topic36586.html
Put these back in and 'Bam' .... no more jaggies ! Thought I would pass this along in case anyone else needed it ..... or needed to remember it.

Congrats, Boss !
Pay no attention to all the good nature ribbing you will get. It in much easier to handle the balls that life pitches at you when you have a teammate.
