Guten Tag kcat

roger on the key settings..

When HUD is active, did you find out the correlation between the invertet T
and inverted V
1. during flight
2. when taxying

In case the V-bar represents flight director then there seems something
wrong IMO.

Hi KCat,
I tried flying the new Google Earth aircraft simulator with the keyboard,
but it is just so counter-intuitive for me. Do you know if the joystick can
be enabled for this? I would much prefer trying to fly with the joystick. By
the way...thank you so much for the keyboard shortcuts, it would have taken
me forever to find all of those.

Yes. I have a wingman2 attack2 joystick also and it works just fine with
the free google earth flight simulator.

The only thing about my wingman attack 2 joystick is that it only controls
the google earth throttle, elevators, and ailerons.

Does anyone know how to set the rudder pedals on google earth to be the
buttons on the wingman attack2 joystick?

Well, I have yanked out the old cabinets and am repairing the floor, walls, ceiling, everything else. Also going to install new receptacles where needed. I'm thinking about putting in 4-plex everywhere instead of duplex so I have enough for my radio, razor, electric back scratcher, etc.

I would appreciate anyone looking at this seat-of-the-pants sketch I posted at alt.binaries.pictures.woodworking under the same subject. Kind of goofy I know -- I drew in all the existing connections first. Then added the new cabinets on top, so you can see several are now behind cabinets, etc.

Anyway, how's it look?

I figured a way to avoid one receptacle behind a cabinet. Plus thought it might make sense to go ahead and install 4-plex everywhere there is a new or existing duplex receptacle. The open wall will be tiled over so it's better for me to install too much now and not use it rather than wish I had more outlets later. Of course, the current supply will be the same.

So you're in the market for a new cell phone plan. You start your cell
phone search online to give you an idea on wireless phone service
prices. Free cell phones, get a free cell phone, the lowest cell phone
rates, compare cell phone rates. Starting to look familiar?

Which is the last free version of Fastone?
Is it version 5.3 or 5.7 (both of which are linked to at that site)?
