Okay, I'm hooked.

A few screen-shots from Condor, as I sail along with the wind rushing by the canopy...

Tow plane moves into position

Aloft

(that blue line on the front of the canopy is a short length of string ... a poor man's slip indicator)

Another tow plane

Sqeezing the trigger from this view is a hard habit to break!

Admiring the view

More scenery

More scenery pt2

Cruisin\'

Thermals : graphic representation of the invisible threads that keep sail-planes aloft for hours on end. \:\)

The little blurb that appears as the sim is loading:

Quote:
If flying were the language of man, soaring would be it's poetry

Now... where is that SimHQ article on Condor??
