Does anyone have some reliable info on this subject? The Asus GTX680 Top edition is supposed to be the fast single GPU available at 1200mhz factory OC. It would seem a pair of these in sli would be ideal, however some people have reported that FSX does not benefit from SLI. If thats true, there is the GTX690 which is only 1019mhz, but esentially a dual GPU. It also offers 4gb memory over the 680's 2gb, but is there any benefits to more than 2gb of GPU memory? Which would provide better performance? This is regarding a 3+1 24 inch monitor set up.

G'day, I just came across this photo on Airliners.net, with some guy going up into F-BVFF, the Concorde on the stands on display at Paris-CDG airport. Does anyone know what he's doing? www(DOT)airliners.net/photo/Air-France/Aerospatiale-British-Aerospace-Concorde/2196060/L/ Replace the DOT with a dot to see the image.

Wired has a brief article with video. The aircraft is unpainted but with some telemetry aiding symbols painted on the surfaces. Interesting to note that it doesn't use catapult - relies on afterburner and the ski jump. There is a wheel-arresting tab that pops up from the deck to hold the aircraft in place while power is applied. I didn't think it would be able to get enough speed, but apparently it works fine. I wonder how much headwind is required at full combat load. http://www.wired.com...rier-first-jet/ I'm sure there are more videos/pictures out there. Edit: bad spelling in the title, I know. I have fat fingers, you see...

The Aviation Herald has been threatened with legal action by a so-called unknown airline. Speculation however seems to indicate that airline to be none other than Ryanair. http://www.avherald.com/h?article=45a1cb11 For me I find this deeply disturbing. Thoughts?

Hi folks, Can someone please explain to me AA 77W deployments? "American said in May that it would introduce the 777-300ER on the D/FW-London on Jan. 31, New York-London in February, a second D/FW-London flight in March and New York-Sao Paulo in April" http://aviationblog.dallasnews.com/2012/10/new-american-airlines-airplane-will-be-delayed-seven-weeks.html/ I'm Sorry, but i don't see how this can work with just 2 A/C until 2013.... maybe i'm just tired and looking at it wrong, i don't know, but why would they pull a route with it, if it was working well and they planned with it working well? But maybe i am looking at it wrong... you tell me! i am planning to …

When Canada Trust first installed ATM Machines from coast to coast, they called them the JOHHNYCASH Money Machines....You don't believe me: Notice his smile on his face at the end of the commercial when he says 'the smart way to get to your money'......what a guy B) I will admit, I am a big time Johnny Cash fan and I would love to get my hands on one of those machines

Hey guys, So after moving to a new fancy FSX computer, I decided to turn a new leaf and get interested in some military jets from commercial jets. A breath of fresh air. So I have some of these jets but I'd like to know your opinions about some and what you think I should get. Please could you provide an opinions about the ones I don't have. The ones I have: English Electric Lightning(My favourite). Dino F-14 Milviz F-15E Milviz T-38A IRIS F-22 JF F-111 AV8B Harrier Suggestions of these? VRS F/A-18 Superhornet F-16 Fighting Falcon Milviz F86 Sabre Hawker Hunter J-11B Flanker Typhoon(when it comes out) Any others you might think of? Pete

Came across this wonderful video that just happens to be my home. This is my home. I have lived here longer than anywhere in my life. I am deeply rooted here. I have walked, hiked, camped and flown in real life over every inch of the area in this film. To me it is the greatest place on the planet. Here I have raised three children that have rewarded me with three grand children. Grab a tea, coffee or heck a beer...a snack and sit back and take this ride over my homeland. It's 19 minutes long but you can skip sections if you like. The video actually show several places we have lived, Maple Bay, Sooke, Port Renfrew. Http://vimeo.com/53986934 cheer, Bryan (ak…

Hi, I have been using teamspeak for a while now flying with some friends...however, I would like to branch out to communicate and fly with others...that said would someone please advise if this method to connect up is right: To connect up to the teamspeak server address ( speakus-10teamspeak.net:15797 ) do I just replace the address in the "server address " box ? And when finished with that communication put my original server address back into the "server address " window ? And when connected up to the teamspeak server address what's the next line item i click on to communicate with Teamspeak members ? Thanks, Seehunt

It gets more and more amazing how much detail they are able to cram into these iOS and Android programs. Shows what you can do when you think there is a possible big fat profit waiting at the end. Watching this, I keep being reminded of Wings of Prey

Just like the US Presidential campaign that devolved into finger pointing, and a candidate being called a "liar"... now it looks like Airbus is doing the same. Thought they were better than this... http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-11-26/airbus-ads-jab-boeing-on-new-jets-as-planemaker-rivalry-sharpens.html

The Senior Developer of the Airsimmer. Vasiliy Kondratiev. From the official site: "Vasiliy Kondratiev worked in Russia in various computer science positions, including the post of Mail Server Administrator at the Russian Federation State Executive Agency, before advancing to serve as the head of the Agency’s computing department." What does it mean? Russian Federation State Executive Agency. As far as I know, Vasiliy Kondratiev wrote at the avsim.ru that he worked in russian special agency. FSB or FABSI. He sad different each time. But FSB in english - Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation. FABSI? There are no such agency. There was FAPSI - Feder…

Fast forward to around the 5:00 minute mark and then process the direction of the runway, how the plane is pointed in another direction and then the mountains on each side. A true airline jockey pilot's dream.

Hi guys is there a way to search for a flight consulting an entire scheduled flights world database? I use FlightAware but flters can't do what I search for. Suppose I fly an MD11, and want to verify if from Dubai are there scheduled flights (pax/cargo) to somewhere in the world, FA don't allow this function, but only let you know all tracked/scheduled flight from that airport without filter from a/c in the output search, is corretc or may I do something wrong? Is there an alternative to FA? Many thanks

We hope to see all of you! http://www.vatsim.net/news-details/ben-gurion-airport-real-ops/563b9a203e/ Bar Rodoy, VATSIM Israel.

How would you react? (I had another video, but changed my mind, so forgive the title) :blush: http://youtu.be/7N5OhNplEd4

Some shots of the Red Carpet....About an hour before the Celebrities arrived, I didn't stick around cause I don't like Celebs Was a beautiful day and the Boeing 777 with the new Hobbit livery flew over at 1000 feet.

We started to send a PM yesterday to everyone which is repeated here. Some who received it interpreted it to mean that we were accusing them specifically of copyright violations. That was NOT specifically addressed to a single individual or individuals, but as below, intended to be a general reminder to everyone. After it became clear that some were interpreting it as a specific message to them, we cancelled the PM distribution. Most of you did not receive that PM and that is the reason we are repeating the reminder here. THIS IS A GENERAL REMINDER TO EVERYONE.. PLEASE READ... We are seeing more copyrighted material being placed in the forums of AVSIM. This is in …

In Steam I know it is easy to give away an application you bought to a friend of your in the same platform. I used GFWL to buy MS FLIGHT (including all add-ons) and FSX Gold early this year, but my complete change of interests in terms of flight simulation and my now full dedication to DCS World, the p-51, and soon to RoF as well turned my account into a completely useless repository of games I do not plan to play anymore. Question is, for those of you who may have faced a similar situation... Can a GFWL be sold, offered to another user?

Thought this one was funny......The United States planned to hit the Moon with a nuclear bomb during the Cold War, according to reports. I can just imagine that brainstorming session...
