The instability would kill you in a heartbeat when flying multiplayer dogfight but it was still a blast! I wonder if the site will really ever come back... I don't know about living legend but Raptor is a aero engineer . You obviously didnt know him then. In 1998 he was FAR from being an aero engineer... Have no idea in 1998 , that's right when F4 was released , it was much later that he help some in SPx series and was student , studying aero engineer at the time . Edited by Ed_1 (12/16/10 08:36 AM)

JimmyS1985 Junior Member Registered: 12/19/10 Posts: 40	Im glad to see Im not the only one wondering what happened to the site. I got into flight simming 2 years ago and had a brief stint on Frugalsworld before it just disappeared. I guess it goes without saying that it will not be coming back, but as one of the last people to join the forum prior to its disappearance I think I can join Frugals refugees.

I was flying with him then on the old 714VFTS Falcon 4 ladder... _________________________ TSH Developer/Member Retired Contributing editor to Sim-News.com VNFAWING Flight Sim Development Center

I sure would like to write a new install instruction set for OF if it ever gets back up because I am having one hell of a time installing it from the instructions I find on-line `swamp

I have to admit I logged out here at SimHQ to check if this was the same script hahahaha. It wasn't and I feel stupid now. How are u Swampy
