Flogging a dead horse

Hardy might not like this, sorry Hardy! A recent post somewhere else triggered my attention, so I went up to the attic and found my precious 747PS1 manual, the grey binder :-) The software stored on my NAS/Glacier. Can't find the box itself, can't believe I trew that one away.

...mind the NAV DATA and AIRAC :) Have massive problems converting the Airports, still working on that, but the other data is quite good. All converted from XP12 2609 data. Oh and 25KHz of course.

Agreed, I clearly have way too much time on my hands.

(nope, won't share this one, sorry)

There is nothing dead about this piece of software! I'm guessing it was my post that might have inspired you?
I got my first copy of PS1@13. I am 35 and own PSX. I don't think I will ever fully grasp the intricacies and engineering of this manmade structure It transcends a 'machine/vehicle'.I think if AI were to become sentient it would have happened already by now (pick your favourite post 1980s airliner)

It is dead. It's a zombie that can't walk anymore.

I got the zombie walking again, full limp modus, back to the future, running on 2609 almost perfect :-)

Does CF/TF/DF/CA/VA but yeah...

Now that the GPU market is completely messed up, I thought I might as well take full advantage of it...

...oke I stop now, spend 2 days of my life converting the X-plane 12 AIRAC to PS13...

Now back to l/wife.

But it can still fly!    :-)
