^ My offer to install a transponder aerial on my roof was turned down by FlightRadar24 because I only have 180° visible horizon and they like people with 360°.

it is well that you saved your money i guess. additional coverage in that area would probably be superfluous.

i have trouble with the cockpit view. it shimmies and is horribly pixellated and i wonder if it is that way for others?
i mainly use flight radar 24 to learn the official commercial flight paths of routes i plan to fly in my flight simulator so that i can make my flights as realistic as possible.

Meanwhile there's a lovely SSV commie for sale here in town. I might just give up and go for that.


the commodores and chryslers have different characters about them. the best way to compare them is to take both of them for a test drive while blindfolded and see if you can tell the difference.

I wish people, who are so seemingly bitter, could realize what / how much damage they are causing to their souls----and, thereby, making them even MORE bitter.

I haven't tried a flight simulator or indeed any video/computer games for fear of becoming addicted to them and haven't used cockpit view so can't advise.

here is a lap of the chrysler 300 around maple valley. the track length is 4.83 km from checkered road marking to checkered road marking. use a watch if you wish to calculate the average speed. (no spoilers (literally))



here is a lap of a standard GT351 1973 on the same circuit.

"I have never found a companion that was so companionable as solitude. We are for the most part more lonely when we go abroad among men than when we stay in our chambers. A man thinking or working is always alone, let him be where he will."

Why is it when you get up on a high level on games you need to have your computer fixed and then you have to start the games again. :evil: :evil: :evil:
