To Those New to Rudder Pedals...
« on: June 21, 2005, 10:03:12 AM »
I've recently read that a few of you are also transitioning right about now (Bustr comes to mind).  I was wondering if people that are transitioning would like to go to either the DA or TA for a few hours this weekend to try and get used to it better.  I'm just not finding the MA a very productive place to do so.  I'm also giving Del free kills :p

I don't have much free time until the weekend when the ack heads to NYC for her sister's pre-wedding hoopla.  She'll be gone all weekend though, so I'm looking forward to lots of aggravating flight time to get a feel for these :)

Anyway, this weekend, if you see me in the MA, just give me a PM or call me out on 200.  I think it would be a good way to learn these things (fighting someone equally as uncomfortable with their equipment as you).

S!

I'm getting a set in the mail this week. I finally convinced myself, I'me helping my health by spending that money on pedals instead of steak:D

I'll look you up this weekend- though I'm pretty rotten even without pedals :)

I'll show up with the new track IR and we can all be a pitiful sight trying to get a bead on a moving target.

Vudak,

Sounds fun, but I might have to cut out quickly, I just started doing a shift for another IT department where I work and I pulled oncall for this weekend...........:)

I'm up for some duels, Vudak, provided we both can learn/benefit from it. :)

Yea, I changed names back to Delirium from CPorky, permanently.
