"Well, once again I end up back at Longbow 2, still the best flight sim ever made for the PC (Falcon 4 being real close tho...). I read Flyboys article on it and it made me dig it out and give er a go again... I was quite pleased and excited to see that it works quite well in vista... in fact it runs better now than it ever has... I had the speed up problems for so long, even when using the slow down programs that I pretty much gave up on it. with the latest version of dg's voodoo driver it now works perfectly!! I actually have the feeling of lift when the chopper lifts off now rather than feeling like I'm flying a helium baloon.... and the jets don't fly at warp speed anymore... It all works perfectly and I couldn't be happier about it.. Anyway, I see me spending some time in this and would like to hook up with some of you guys for some multi if anyone is up for it. I have a local friend that I've tried this with yesterday, and we did front seat/back seat and it worked great... woohoo!" -- Fanatik

Don't believe me? See for yourself... here

As you can imagine, I was overwhelmed at the plentiful positive response that I received. I am glad that so many people took the time to read the article and enjoyed it. It is cool also, that I have made some more people pick up LB2 and get it going once again. Thanks for all your kind words, it has been very encouraging, and who knows, maybe I may write at SimHQ again one day...
