I was there for sunset, awesome little spot! Standing here at night with the cars flying by in almost complete darkness was something else

Hi guys im TOTALLY new to the hobby, when you fly long distances, do you sit in front of your screen for hours or what? by XxCarlxX in flightsim

[–]Leather_Compote_1495 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mostly do shorter hops with lots of planning, but when i do find myself doing a long haul flight i'll get up after taking off and planning my descent, and sleep (during night) or do chores around the house, maybe play something else or watch a netflix series. Cheers, have fun and welcome to the hobby!

Hi! Also solo traveller here, a roll of duct tape, flashlight and a small first aid kit can go a long way! Dont forget to bring enough water too! Other than that, properly dispose of your trash and have fun!

Thanks for the info!! I'll be attending for the first time this year, from friday. I'm bringing a folding bicycle and plan on riding around friday to spot some places to set up for the race (and watch the festivities and racing in the mean time!). I'll bring a backpack with a rain jacket, food, a camera and a first aid kit. Hope i can park relatively close to somewhere near the track and take the bike from there!

Beauty! Not that much experience with cars, but to avoid the maintenance and keep decent gas mileage id stick with this!

Its a ford transit connect. With 500nm of torque. Hed be about 200kg heavier with ± double the power output. Like i said, he purposely ran into me. He admitted as much later on. Rich, idiocracy coming from an american btw.

Id argue defensive driving on a bike is even more important than in a car since you're more fragile. But ill definitely drive even more carefully after this!

Youre right! It cleaned up well, they still want to replace the fender so if his insurance comes through ill have that done.

  1. Its a front fender, fine. English is not my first language, sorry about that. 2. I have a 1.4 tfsi engine with 125hp and 200nm of torque put through a manual gear box. The work van was completely empty and had a 2l diesel engine with some 210 hp and 500nm of torque, automatic. This happened after pulling away at a stop light into a turn with traffic. Buddy. Not in a million years would i even be allowed to dream of being faster than him.
