Re: Flying in Hawaii
When I ws in Maui in spring 2001, 02, 03, 04, 05 yadda yadda, I went to mauiaviators as well. A simple checkout was all that was required, but I didn't feel like burning cash on a checkout AND then renting again for solo. (Do I golf at Kapalua Plantation Course, or rent a plane....

Re: Baggage Fees on Air Canada
When my bike is worth more than my car, and I intend on going racing or make a training camp mini vacation out of it, it is a HUGE deal... kind of helps to go to a race in say Vancouver and know your main piece of luggage and the purpose of your trip is arriving with you...

If you really want to play flightsim, my advice is just stick with FS9... FSX is a pig on resources, and from experience, unless you are willing to pay thousands on a gaming machine, its not worth it... Read on any of the flightsim newsgroups, FSX is nothing but a PITA.. none of the "cool" addons wo...
