    Salutations from a "noob"

    Just wanted to say hi to all from a SOH noob.

    For some weird reason, this 20+ years flight simmer never dropped by the "OutHouse" although I recognize so many names here and that I think I will fit right in.

    I guess it's never too late to find a new virtual hang out place. I promise to be a nice "noob" and take my time to fit in without creating any commotion.

    Here is a collection of screenies as a way of introducing myself and MY style of flying...

    Welcome aboard HercFan and if that's your style of flying I bet you have Orbx PNW in your sights.

    But of course! Looking forward to it. As I stated in another thread, looking forward to making my way from south to north (and back) to discover it all. Although I know the area quite well from my FS9 flying days (Georender, FSAddon, Holger Cascades and Columbia, etc...). It will be like hooking up with an old girlfriend... that turned out quite well with the years!!!

    Welcome Hercfan. It is good to meet you. Another Canadian, I see. We have many fine Canadian members here. I am a bit confused by your name. (of course confusing can be a state of being ) I thought you were referring to the C-130 Herc. yet, all your screenshots are of the Piper.

    Yup, name actually refers to the C-130. I never changed that "screename" even though I barely fly my Hercs anymore!! Just staying consistent. If I can find how I can attach my usual signature block, you'll note that I am "Cubbie"/low and slow type now!!

    Thanks to all for the greetings. Having fun catching up and reading the threads. Still kickin' myself that I never registered before.

    And Bill, I enjoy the A2A Cub A LOT. But I must admit that I always make sure I keep my Kodiak credentials active!!!

    When I get FSX set up just how I like it, I'll consider that I'm no longer a noob.

    Welcome
    Cheers,
