My Apologies

**Autothrottle** · December 14th, 2009, 23:00

Hello All,

In recent Days, my country has come under much scrutiny and attack from negative news and negative things.

I Don't want to use this site as a forum for news or politics, but I feel that it is my duty as a Citizen of the Commonwealth of the Bahamas to offer my apologies to everyone who would read this thread, in America and the world.

Not all of us are alike, Sometimes It seems very sad that I'm the only one in my country who is playing this simulator. My good friend who left me since high school, who often played CFS3 with me has since become a commercial aviation pilot and has moved on to other things.

The crisis that we are facing is hurting our counrty, but we are fighting back as best we can. I don't know why some of our people are doing things to hurt our image, but we as a people still love America and our Worldy neighbours.

In conclusion, I offer my sincere apologies to the sim community if the Bahamas casts a negative light. But I hope and pray that you all are not upset with us, as we still respect and cherish all our brothers and sisters in the World. I hope that if anyone wants to come and visit us here they will find their stay most comfortable and enjoyable. And for the Sim community, Fly on My brothers.

Thank You for your time spent reading this.

In my experience here at SOH people disregard ethnicity, gender, nationality, and even your sports affiliation. They just accept you for who you are and CFS3 in particular is a very international community with people from all over the world. I don't think you will have any problems here!

You have absolutely nothing to apologize about.

There are times in life when the only sane thing to do is to put the autothrottle on 'cause the show must go on.

Be happy, mate

Autothrottle, Sir..
as had been said, we are a family here.. That our shared Love of this sim family go behond any national or ethnicity...I once became discouraged and placed a very foolish post here..And several of the men here helped me greatly and supported me ..
We as a family here do not care for any politics..What happens in a nation is NOT your doings or mine..If I had to say I'm sorry for every bad thing my own nation as done or been percieved to do..I'd run out of time and space in this all of this..And I have been to your beautiful country many years ago and I shall say from my experence..It was wonderful..
You need not be concerned, we here as I said, are a family with a shared love of this flight sim..Lets us together continue to share this love and do so without being troubled by whatever the world or others may think or do..

I´d like to confirm what our "family" told.
Hey, I´m German and there are many things about which a "Landsmann" like me sometimes tends to apologise. But insted the gents here send friendly pms to me from time to time and always give good advice. Thank you guys! (special greetings to HouseHobbit

)

Hei AT

My thought is exactly the same as HouseHobbit's one and I think it is the same of all of us, so don't worry, You have nothing to apologize for.
Take one of our (virtual) plane and fly high in the sky, from there even this world seems wonderful.

Cheers

and have always good flying
Cristiano

There's a problem in the Bahamas? What, did it start snowing or something?

Darn that global warming...

When I read posts like these, I am not only humbled, but I am also grateful to be part of this family. It did my heart some good to read this tonight.

Thank you!
