It seems strange how people think they own the place when they get something like a season ticket! HELLO! A season ticket is a ticket allowing you to travel as much as you like on a route for a set amount, it doesn't mean that the train HAS to wait for you! Perhaps they should start putting that on ...

...the Railways Pension Scheme is second to none. Except maybe the Airlines! One main reason why I applied for the job is that it's full time, plus it's quite close to the local college, as I'm planning on doing a coulpe of A Levels starting September!

Might be getting a new job!

I've just applied for a job with South West Trains, as a platform assistant at Fareham Station (between Portsmouth Harbour and Southampton Central).
Hopefully I'll be able to get that job, as it will help my career in future!

I've tried that before! Unfortunately FS thinks that Ground control and Airport Tower (departures control) is too busy to do this! You have to be in the air to open an IFR flight plan! (Alternatively, select IFR mode when in the route screen in the main menu!).

I'd get FS2004, It's much better than either version of FS2002!
But, FS2002 is better on lower powered machines!

I spent about 6 months trying to approach/land manually, then all of a sudden I landed on the runway (rather hard), and I've been landing on it ever since, and landing better every time!

No, there's nothing wrong with the plane, Britannia used to fly from Southampton, but Air Europa started the smaller routes, including almost all from Southampton! However, if there are more passengers than Air Europa's B737s can h...
