I first purchased and played Farming Simulator 2015 (Steam version) a couple of weeks ago. As I stated in my welcome post earlier, I’ve spent the past 30 years playing computer based flight simulation programs. I started out on the Commodore 64 version which later became the popular Microsoft Flight Simulator and today I pretty…
Welcome to Jerry’s Farm
As the subject line reads, Welcome to my farm. My name is Jerry! As a relatively new-comer to the world of Farm Simulator (coming on-board with 2015 version) I’m not new to simulation type games/programs. I’ve been flying computer based sims since the early 1980’s. If you are interested in the flight simulation hobby, then…

Recent Tragedy
It’s never been my intention to use this blog site as a platform to voice political commentary or complain about events in the real world.

Out of Memory (OOM) Errors
Part One While I’ve had my share of CTD’s (Crash to Desktop) in FSX over the years, I only recently began experiencing the dreaded Out of Memory (OOM) errors which plaque many. As a result, until I started experiencing the OOM’s I really didn’t know much about them, nor what truly caused these to happen. …
The Rock of Gibraltar
I’m increasing my collection of add-on scenery for the European region and just recently purchased the Aerosoft version of Gibraltar LXGB for FSX. This is a fantastic little airport and reminds me of my St. Maarten TNCM package I have from FlyTampa. I currently own scenery from Aerosoft, FlyTampa, FSDT, Orbx, and UK2000 and truly…
World of AI is going to stop – An Opinion
By now, if you follow any of the other sources which communicate the news happening in and around the flight simulation hobby, then you’ve heard about the guys over at World of AI will close their doors on 30 April 2013. I suppose of course on April 1 (or sometime soon after) they could always…
Merry Christmas Flight
As previously mentioned in my blog, I’ve really been having a lot of fun flying for British Airways virtual. I’ve accumulated many hours since joining just about a month ago and my travels have taken me to many European destinations. Since reaching Senior First Officer, I’ve been really having fun in the Level D 767. …
Your First Flight
A few weeks ago I shared with you all the choices you have available in the form of flight simulation software. I take it you’ve settled on one and have successfully installed the software onto your computer. Unfortunately, most of what I will blog about will directly relate to Microsoft Flight Simulator. As I have…
