So the weather was a bit rough today, cloud ceiling as low as 800 feet in some areas and no higher than 1500′ pretty much everywhere. I’m still not ready to bother with IFR procedures so I took the easy way out and climbed into the helicopter so I could stay VFR and be comfortable […]

Flight Log – Down and Around
June 5th, 2011 · 1 Comment · Gaming
I was disappointed that I screwed up my departure time for my last flight and couldn’t take off with the sunrise so I decided to try again for this one. Sort of succeeded – I ended up getting a bit too caught up in playing Dragon Age 2 to get set up in time!! Figures. […]
Flight Log – Memorial Day Fly
May 31st, 2011 · 2 Comments · Gaming, Personal
Wow has it really been just under 2 months since I’ve last flown?? Yikes I’m afraid so! Luckily in that space of time I’ve still been really productive, churning out over a dozen new airports for MSE Airports and also getting nominated for an AVSIM Reader’s Choice Award in freeware scenery. I don’t expect to […]

After the Storm: The Concise Homeowner’s Post-Winter Driveway Repair Guide
April 3rd, 2011 · 3 Comments · Gaming
The winters can be cruel to everyone, but since they reside outdoors 24/7 for a good few months of the year, our driveways take a particularly harsh beating. Between constant freeze-thaw cycles, shifting, and undulation, asphalt and cement driveways are a mess by the time spring rolls around. It doesn’t matter what type of driveway […]
Flight Log – Flying Home
March 14th, 2011 · No Comments · Gaming
It was nice to stretch my virtual wings again for the first time in two weeks and also finally make a trip back to Monmouth-Executive Airport (KBLM) which is the airfield nearest to my house and thus my “home field”. Since KBLM is only 13.3nm away from my last destination (3N6 Old Bridge) and my […]
Flight Log – Crisscrossing The Delaware
February 20th, 2011 · 1 Comment · Gaming
Today’s flight log is available here. Saturday saw winds gusting upwards of 50mph, so there was no chance I was taking up a little Cessna in that, especially when trying to land at small rural fields. Today was forecasted to be better, but winds wouldn’t start dying down until later in the day and then […]

Flight Log – Weather Wise
February 13th, 2011 · No Comments · Gaming
I made three major changes to my flying on this trip: Logging flight time. I’m not going to actively log hours, as right now that is entirely meaningless for me, but I have started getting into a habit of sticking to a flight schedule. This is because 1) at some point in my virtual aviator […]

Flight Log – Airplanes Aren’t Lawn Darts
February 6th, 2011 · 5 Comments · Gaming
This past week I developed 4 small private turf field airports. What’s notable about them all is I realized that I didn’t need to use an actual runway for them. There’s no AI traffic flying in and out of these airfields so the sim won’t care if there’s no actual hard-surfaced runway on them. And […]
