Hi all,
This is Amentiba 's Flying Story. I will explain the reasons why i love to fly in real (passenger - sick!) and in virtual. But let start by the beginning...
Once upon a... Ok Ok, i have the chance to have a father that left France to work to Cameroon (Africa), a wonderfull land. As i was young, he decided to take me there for a moment and i ve taken my first commercial fly at 4 years old. It was A B707 (1979), we have flown throught France, Mediterannean Sea, Sahara Desert before landing at Douala, economic City, near the Mount Cameroon Volcano.
During Years, i ve been comming back to France, i ve flown as passenger on DC10, B727, B737, B747
Back in France, i ve been too passenger on regional and national lines on Airbus A300 then A320. I've the luck to have seen a landing from the seat that is just back to the pilot that has explain me lots of things about the fly and the plane. Really Great.
I hope one day have enought money to take lessons and fly by my own.
That was for the real, let's speak about the virtual.
As far as i remember i ve been beginnning on Sega Master System (AfterBurner) then on AMSTRAD 6128 CPC (same game), When i was on ATARI ST i ve discover simulation by F29 RETALIATOR, B17 Flying Fortress and an old FS version.
I ve make my road on PC with differents simulator as Jane's product, F16 Fighting Falcon, F22 lightning, ADF and raptor, F117 Stealth Fighter, TFX, Falcon 4, Lock ON, Gunship, Comanche Overkill, and naturally some FS version, i remember the first i touch was the V3.
But i really enjoy "just flying", taking off, reach destination and landing since FS2000 with the concorde and the real world in 3D. When FS2002 has come, ive discover the 3D cockpit very fun and usefull.
Now I'm on FSX, i have created a site about it : http://peffz.site.voila.fr and i 'm proud to download free stuff for FSX and to let the french or european people visit my site to have quality and free products for FSX. I ve been starting to post flight plans on it, for the users who wants to flight without making a flight plan.
Flying is my passion, felling Free in the sky, whatever it is in virtual, i'm not an hardcore FS user, i fly for pleasure and i hope you will enjoy flying too....
Have some nice flights
Amentiba
