Actually that tells me the catapult is ready to fire.. and fire it I did. I did actually get TB2 up and flying on a true vertical takeoff once, but I seem to have lost the knack.

Another X-Plane favourite is the B-52 drop. You're supposed to drop off the B-52's wing in an X-15, but I've done it in the Wright Flyer, a Steinway Grand Piano and a B-52 :nervous:


Yeah the B-52 drop is pretty cool.  I tried it with the supersonic jet car(that thing that broke the speed record a while back), at full throttle it will eventually generate enough lift to fly, but theres no way to control or land it :)

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Xplane? that's a challenger to flight simulator. when the frirst version came out, it was ugly as hell, but featured incredible physics, and stuff you couldn't do ( or not well ) in FS ( like helicopters, VTOL planes, and even, if I remember correctly, high atmosphere flight ( landing with the shuttle ) ). It also has ( had? ) a very complete plane editor ( complete physics-wise, not for  visual of your plane ). I used to be a simulator freak, but I've give up years ago, so I dunno how Xplane has evolved.

They're currently in the beta stage of version 7... they've finally started to address the accusations that it looks ugly as hell and the new version looks pretty fancy.

At some point I'll try and put a Hammerhead in it...
