Today I got my copy of PSX. After 12 years without Hardy"s Gem I am in a state of awe like I was in 1997. I am in rookie mode again and I am only struggling with panels, keystrokes, instructor pages and so on. Astonishing to find out that I have forgotten all the basics .....but we will give it time  ;)

Hi Ton!

And a warm welcome back!   

Also on the tutorials page (http://aerowinx.com/html/misc.html) you'll find a valuable resource that we didn't have in the days of PS1 — Britjet's tremendous video series. You'll be back up to speed in no time!   

Cheers,

Hello Ton,

so nice to hear from you again. Welcome back in the community and enjoy the pleasure of learning and flying PSX.

Markus

p.s.
Do you still remember that beautiful ANZ 747-400 premium model? It still has a place of honour in our living room in Reutlingen (where I have moved to since).

Ton  !

Looong time ago !

Did you fly al the time (completely invisible for us..) your Cargolux flights....  :) ?
I proudly have the manuals, I got from you, still on my bookshelf !

Happy flying and may be you can still remember from the past, that when cows increase in size, you are going downwards...;)

Hi Markus! I do remenber (again) and when I am correct you bought the model at "De Luchtvaart Hobbyshop" or was it Schiphol?

Hi Hessel, 12 year long different life, different things to do ....so no flying. But now after retirement there is room again;-)

I, too, remember with please, also remember visiting you once at your place some >15 years ago.

I know the store (bought PSX there) but I obtained the Air New Zealand 1:200 Herpa model directly from you on ebay. I remember being delighted when I found out it was actually you who was selling it.
