I have started studying this year to upgrade to the full blown Computer Science degree (if only so I can pull more $ from my employer)

What are your hobbies?
Lots, so I'm not very dedicated to any of them:
Wasting my time w. the computer (anything not job related is fine)
Reading (fiction, history, books I randomly pick... anything, I devoured a book a day when I was 17).
Modelling (in fact i buy aircfaft and AFV models, then let them rust in their box).
Learning foreign languages (english, french, some japanese, now having a go at russian, german will be next)
Playing guitar (I suck)
Reading web boards... this one is my current hard addiction... i can spend 10-12 hours straight lurking at every conceivable web forum (sad isn't it)

and many more things that cought my interest for too little time to mention here

What other flight sims have you been involved in? Your call sign and squad in that sim?
AH was my first online sim. I used the 'catalan' callsign in wwiiol while I could stand it.
I buy nearly every WWII flight sim that comes out, but barely play them. Single player stuff has become sad and shallow since I found AH.
My first flight "sim" was SWOTL, and I still consider it's full campaing mode unsurpassed.

Do you have any other connection to aviation or WWII?
Sadly not   there's little affordable private/general aviation here in Spain,
flight instruction makes sense only if you intend to be a commercial pilot, and I would have to mortgage my bellybutton for 20 years to get a license and any flight time
