Just registerd today and wanted to say thank you to all the members for the post and magnificent work that has been done.

Havent read much in the forums, Really a "Nubie".

I found Winstep by accident LOL. I was doing some windows modification and down loads from other sights I was really bored with my O/System. Unfortunatley my computer got infected with tracking cookies. The good news is my system is clean of all virus and tracking cookies and deleated all of there Utilities and files.

Did a surch found Winstep and another competitor. after running the trial software decided to go with Windstep and made the purchase today for the Extreme version.

My decesion was made by sevral factors. Help files, forum post and user friendly system.

Pretty much it I will be reading the forums a lot to learn about how the system works and so on. Big learning curve LOL.

GoggleEye My user name is unique. Goggle means to look at. Eye is the lens of a camera.

Goggle Eye was painted on the engine cowlings of a P-38 Lightning used in
WW-2. A womans Eye was painted on the nose of the P38 Lightning.

This P-38 was a Photo Recon aircraft used in the Solomon Islands (South East Pacific 1941 - 1943.

Thanks

Sorry I didn't get to this thread earlier. Welcome to the Winstep Forum! Cool and interesting username!

Also very importantly, you now have a fellow WWII aficionado in the Forum. I'm not as knowledgeable as some others, but I am very enthusiastic about learning more.

I once spent a whole day on the battleship USS Alabama, http://www.ussalabama.com/visitor_info.php it was awesome! They also have an aviation museum and WWII submarine dry-docked there.

P-38's are cool, but I'm partial to the P-51D's

As far as the P-51's they were (and still are) awesome! Especially the last iteration of the lot, the P51D. With the added Merlin engine, the "bubble-top", upgraded gunsight and added guns from 4 to 6 with better feeding, not only was it formidable, but really good looking as well! :)

I've heard numerous pilots of the P-51D say it felt as though it was a part of them while flying and not like they were operating a machine.

One of the pilots that made that comment was a Tuskegee Airman. Of course one has to take his comment very seriously simply because of their record in bomber escort duties.

I also love WW II planes and I'm new here too. You can't beat a P51 or a Spitfire in sheer beauty. The new generation of jet craft are in a different category: I can't stop marveling at the silhouette of a F16 or F/A 18. Art meets engineering. That's what makes great planes.
