Fs98 Retro Panel Preview
========================

Or should I call it the ode to FS4????

Well, some of you might remember the hey days of FS flying?  Some might
not.  This upcoming panel is a reflection of what used to be.  After
discovering an old copy of FS4 and installing it (just to see what it
was once like), I discovered it actually didn't run any smoother on
my pentium 2, and in fact there was so much screen flicker due to the
speed of the processor that it just about sent me into spasms.

Then it dawned on me, a project, totally off the wall, and equally as
geeky (hey there's a bit of geek in all of us-lets call it the 15 mins
of geekiness)...  A retro look at FS with fully functional panels and
aircraft.  Right now I'm working on the panel, and I would be interested
to know if anyone might take on the challenge of using FSFS to create
an FS98 aircraft based off the old FS4 design.  (I'm sure it would be
easy).  Also if anyone knows how to record and convert pc speaker files
to a WAV file it be very interested to know.

For now enjoy the preview, and remember, FS has come a long way since
1979.  Expect the release date either sometime in the near future or
on the 20th year anniversary of FS.
