Aerofly pro deluxe

Tue Mar 22 14:14:42 AKST 2005

I looked at it right away, and Bill, I hope some other people jump on board 
with you in getting this done.  I, for one, would like to see it.  I'm not 
proficient enough at flying, unless you are just looking for what not to do, 
or I would buy the software necessary and put something together to try it 
out.
I think what Bob P. has on his site is an awesome visual aid, it has some 
great potential.
