Hi,
Been lurking here for a while. Time to come out of hiding. Name's Richard Nordli. Live by myself in Santa Barbara, California. Have loved anything that flies for as long as I can remember. Earliest recolection of being hooked on aviation was when I was around 13, hanging around Van Nuys airport. We used to ride our bikes there and go thru a sort of aircraft junkyard. Old carcasses of vintage airplanes, some even still had gauges.
I'm totally addicted to FS. Mostly into smaller aircraft that I can fly by wire. Not into autopilot.
So anyway ... nice to be here. I love the great communities where we can share our passion for flying.

Welcome! Just curious, your name sounds Norwegian. Any of your ancestors from over here? 
In all my years I've never seen the like. It has to be more than a hundred sea miles and he brings us up on his tail. That's seamanship, Mr. Pullings. My God, that's seamanship!

Yup, grandparents were right out of Oslo. Eventually settled in Salt Lake City.

Welcome to the world of craziness. They say that having a boat is like throwing money into a hole in the water. FS2004 is just as bad. I can hear that money sucking sound......
We are all here to help. Welcome
