Hi there:
Im a gay asian Native american guy in NYC area. I have longish black hair (which drives airline management totally nuts, and no; I ain't cuttin' it!). I have been doing some reasearch and was absolutely floored by a piece on NPR of a woman who has adult AS.
I thought to myself "Oh my f*****g God! I have the same traits of AS as she described." So I been devoting months of research online and reading sources on Adult Autism. Now I have a much broader understanding about who I really am. However its frustrating as a gay Aspie not having many friends. In my continuing research I came across wrongplanet.net so I can network and meet folks. Im still trying to figure out how to post a picture here. My interests are fairly one track, if its involving aviation or airline, Im already there. But I also like electronics and most anything technical, perputually stuck in the 70s and 80s.
But Im afraid that since I might have AS I might not be able to fly much longer and kiss any chance of becoming a pilot goodbye.
Im not the typical gay crossdresser. Im more into tech stuff and not into broadway, showtunes and Cher. Give me a Chrysler DRB iv scanner and a 1995 Plymouth Grand voyager and Im happy as a bug in a rug. I like standup comedy as I will being doing some soon. I hope to have some more info as soon I learn how to navigate around this neat site.
See you all soon.

Actually yes I do. Im sort of sticking with ACF/2004 right now until I upgrade to the FS-gen X. That version would overload and overwhelm my system. I don't believe that even with all the enhancements of FS-X turned OFF it will run properly or to any real satisfaction. When I do, I mostly fly the Boeing 727-200, and have done weather reconnaisance flights with it. Particularly during Hurricane Katrina and Wilma in 2005 utilizing real-time weather generation. Unfortunately I lost 2 Boeing 727s in the missions. oops. Forgot, most of my hurricane hunter trips either originate out of FLL mostly, MIA, OPF or Homestead AFB (where the real c-130 squadron are from). But I run DHS/JPAT/or DOD trips through Springfield (Westover AFB), Cape Cod ANG(FMH for Falmouth), PVD, to CLT, ATL (Dobbins AFB) or FLL with 2 daily roundtrips with the 727-200.
