Postby Dan4th » Mon Feb 09, 2009 12:51 am

Sorry for the Delay, folks, it just took me a
while to get enough of my multiple personalities
together to have a quorum....

(...ahem...)

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! (...tympani)

The results are in for the Second Flight Sim Showdown!!!!! (theme music)

And so, without further ado, here they BE!!!!!!!!!!!

First of all, there are no LOSERS in this competition, so may
we please have a large round of applause for the FOUR
IconAir Forumeers who accomplished this daunting challenge!

of GG Bridge) and Best Music, our winner is:

SARACENMAN!

And Now: For Best Touch-down, Best Overall Presentation and Most Entertaining
Near-Crash, it's:

(...okay, everyone pretend they're overwhelmed by the suspense....)

YOUR WINNER for Best All-Round Flying PLUS an inverted under-bridge pass
AND an actual takeoff AND an inverted meeting with the ocean IS::::::::::::::::

Well, having "flown" with two of the FAMOUS FOUR, I am surprised you managed to find the Golden Gate Bridge!!!!! :))

Wot SM said. :)

As to what I'm c%&p at. Well the BOSS (wife) has compiled an extensive list. Fortunately if I was to post it then all the server space would be used and nobody else would be able to post. ;)
That's it! You people have stood in my way long enough. I'm going to clown college!

Just a passing thought......

Any way that Showdown III could include
mid-air refueling? This way certain individuals
on the site could satisfy their hunger for one
particular aircraft which shall remain nameless
while at the same time trying out yet ANOTHER
new challenge.

I for one would love to see Aardvarks feeding off
of a VC.....well, you get the idea....

Perhaps part of a longer flight....

Or maybe Blackbird and Stratobladder?

IS THIS POSSIBLE???????

I LIKE your thinking, your Holiness, but I
don't even know what or if or anything about
mid-air refueling on the Flight Sim sites.....

Does it EXIST? Anyone????????

Aw, they're all off flyin' somewheres.....

HEY! Does BOMBING exist on Flight Sim? If so,
here's a great big Homer Simpson "WHOO HOO!!!!!!"

Danf - FFM had tanking as part of his Tornado aircraft for flight sim, but it doesn't work normally - the best you can do is to trail the hoses of the VC10 :D

as for BB1 - 9 hour sorties? :((

Wedgy and I are already thinking that the next challenge will be with helicopters :D
