Unfortunately, one of our five graphics cards in the big setup failed on Wednesday. What has happened? It overheated when it's fan blocked. Ironically, the fan had sucked in a warranty sticker which somehow had peeled off... So, is that covered by warranty? Or is "warranty void if removed"? ;-) | Unfortunately, one of our five graphics cards in the big setup failed on Wednesday. What has happened? It overheated when it's fan blocked.

Aparte de la gran cantidad de pantallas, el [[Howto: Build your own procedure trainer | "Simulador de procedimiento para pobres"]] de Torsten pegado-montado en casa fue bendecido con elogios - y realmente merece este reconocimiento. | |||
La gente realmente disfrutó volando | La gente realmente disfrutó volando nuestros simuladores - y sin duda atrajimos a algunos futuros pilotos a FlightGear. Algunos de ellos estaban tan entusiasmados que parecían mantenerse en órbita alrededor de nuestro stand durante todo el día en espera de otra oportunidad de volar el simulador grande. :) | ||
When more experienced visitors were flying at our booth, we used our netbooks to secretly telnet into the sim - and cause trouble by triggering specific failures. Flights were hampered by failing instruments, stalled engines or stuck gear (or any combination for really hard cases). Eventually, everyone was properly challenged! ;-) Kudos go to Martin Spott for safely landing a combined single-engine, stuck-gear and full instrument failure emergency in dense fog. He found his way back to the airport anyway. How did he manage? Unfortunately we forgot to fail the DME - and displayed distance obviously was enough information for his navigation... | When more experienced visitors were flying at our booth, we used our netbooks to secretly telnet into the sim - and cause trouble by triggering specific failures.

Los vuelos fueron obstaculizados por los instrumentos que fallan, paradas de motor o trenes atrancados (o cualquier combinación para casos realmente duros). Con el tiempo, todo el mundo fue desafiado correctamente! Felicitaciones;-) ir a Martin Spott de forma segura el aterrizaje de un combinado de un solo motor, engranajes atascados y de emergencia completo instrumento de fracaso en una densa niebla. Él encontró su camino de regreso al aeropuerto de todos modos. ¿Cómo logró? Lamentablemente no nos olvidamos de la DME - y la distancia se muestra, obviamente, era suficiente información para que su navegación ... | ||
During LinuxTag [http://www.radiotux.de RadioTux] also asked us to present FlightGear live at their booth.
