Well I cracked open Firefox and I got bored so I punched in the
Snarkpit address and then there was this nuclear explosion and US
marines and everything... and weird flying sausers and grey guys saying
"Take me to your dealer" and stuff...

And after all that, the homepage of Snarkpit appeared on my screen.

Yea Nick's been real busy lately. Heck I havent even finished
Half-Life 2 yet (Sorry Lord for I have sinned!!) I've been
working a buttload and flying a lot too so it's kept me away from my
life. Er... "life". I stuck to the forums over at buddypic
and hackthissite. Havent touched HL2 in over a month, and God
only knows the last time I opened VHE.

Got a lot of stuff going on right now, but that'll die down soon I
hope. To which after that, I'll see about getting into mapping
again. Since I havent done so since HL2 came out. (me
checks profile)... Last release over a year ago.

But yea, I figured I'd drop by and say "Yes, Im still alive!" And now Im going to bed.

Heya mate, glad everything is going well for you :smile: I don't think you can really complain about flying a lot by the way :razz:

Some people are like slinkys...

They aren?t really good for anything, but you can't help but laugh when one tumbles down the stairs.

What the Snarkpitters listen to!

Heya mate, glad everything is going well for you :smile: I don't think you can really complain about flying a lot by the way :razz:

Im doing my night rating right now, and cant complain much about
that. Flying at night is beautifull. I was doing circuits
at the Ottawa Intl airport last night about a hour before my original
post. Nothing is more fun than landing in behind a 737 and in
front of a A320.

"A320 flight number (bla bla, I forget) base number 2 for runway 2 5 behind a Cessna 150 short final doing a touch and go"

Yea, flying is great. Its the bills that arent. looks at logbook

April: 4th, 12th, 15th, 19th, 22nd, 22nd, 26th

May: 3rd, 6th, 9th, 16th, 16th, 20th, 22nd, 25th, 27th, 30th, 31st

June: 3rd

Bill so far: (without counting June 3rd flight) 2810.75$

And now Im going back to the airport. But I'll be sure to be
checking around. I'd like to release at least one map before
Half-Life 3 rolls around.

is it the same type of plane that you fly each time you go up?

i eat paint

Cessna 150's and Cessna 172's currently. I did my training over the summer in Cessna 152's.

Currently Im checked out on all 3 types.

T'is nice to see some familiar faces, TB, Cass, and ReNo. Im
assuming Lep and Gwil are still the uberlords... With ReNo being the
new head honcho, congrats on the green glowing nametag :smile:

What about the rest of the crew? Doc, Money, Orph, Yak, KFS, and the rest of em. Those fellas still around?

ReNo... and the gang, any new maps? Or anything I could lend a hand with?

congrats on the green glowing nametag :smile:

Thanks mate :smile: DocBrasso is still lingering around here and there,
Money's posting new threads like there is no tomorrow, Orph is
(naturally) still the life and soul of the snarkpit, Yak's been fairly
quiet as of late, and KFS like the busy worker bee that he is pops his
head in from time to time :biggrin: Gwil's currently buggered off to the other
side of the world (ie. Australia/New Zealand - read all about it
here), meaning IRC is really feeling rather
quiet :sad:

On the map front, the big things at the moment are Dr.Glass's community
"mosaic" project (something you might wanna look into if you don't have
a great deal of time for mapping), and of course this year's snarkpit
mapping contest.

WELCOME BACK CARD! Great to see ya!

Hey Doc, care to fill me in on this mosaic of yours? And MS, why
arent you on that list. I still have the Pitcrew 2 map somewhere
and your lava section was really nice.

I gave you a link Wild, what more do you want?! :razz:

The best things in life, aren't things.

I have Section 8 Wild Card.. yeah I was wondering if our old map would ever go anywhere. I worked real hard on that lava room, since lost to many computer updates. =(

Like I said before, its real good to see you again..

Hey, nice to see you!

So how different are the flying procedures in the States comapred to
those in europe? I do a lot of online flying with ATC and all the
stuff, and i heard from someone whom flew in the US with a cousin that
the procedures are different. Do you over there use the ICAO system?
And how are the ground procedures?

The strength of the turbulence is directly proportional to the temperature of your coffee.

Its Canada dude :razz: But yes, it is ICAO standards. But
procedures are still a little different from the US, as far as I know.

MoneyShot, I do have the lava section still. Something I can
return to you and you could port over for an empty space on that mosaic.

So, how are those rules compared to europe, and are there any green fields with no atc?

That, I couldnt tell you because Im not familiar with the rules in Europe.
