814: I am Negative

I finally got negative from rapid test after 9 days of Covid-19 infection. The most uncomfortable days were from Day 2 to Day 6, with fever, fatigue, serious sore throat and coughing.

Thanks goodness.  It’s all gone.

Wish you all good health.  Stay Safe and Happy Flying

813: I got Infected with COVID-19

Although I’ve been very cautious with face mask on all the time when going out and seldom go to crowded places , and had 4 doses Covid-19_resizeof vaccines last year, I eventually failed to avoid from Covid-19 infection two days ago after nearly 4 years.

Thanks goodness my wife is safe.

According to scientiests, the current virus is less severe than its early existence . But I have to say that it is still a very uncomfortable experience.

Wish you all good health.

A recent example Continue reading

676: Is my Knowledge Obsolete ?

One thing that puzzles me a lot in MSFS since the beginning is how the aircraft are parked in the airport.  The picture below shows the most common manner how static aircraft are placed in MSFS.  MSFS_ParkingT2SShouldn’t the aircraft be parked in the opposite direction facing the horizontal line of the T-mark?  

I don’t see Continue reading

661: Stay Safe and Happy Flying

Wearing face masks isn’t only a part of our standard dressing nowadays but also a reflection in fictional characters in flightsim.  Came across this on Orbx’s Freeware Fishburn page.   Let’s hope we could all laugh at it very soon.
