    Greetings

    Maybe some day, Orbiter will become ‘required flying’ in aerospace courses. :probe:

    50 km not far at all. I can see the landing patterns for JFK, Newark, and LaGuardia in New York/ New Jersey from eastern Pennsylvania, about 140 km away low to the horizon.

    If you were a couple km to the left, and the arc went the other way, I'd say maybe an airplane's port wing light, but from this side it would be green. How long was the exposure? Just reread your post, you didn't take it, you found it online. me :dopeslap

    IMFD Surface Launch Program

    I use LaunchMFD for launching, usually manually launch and get my orientation close then hit the AP. For landing, I like HoverMFD, you can select hover, heli, or tailsitter modes, and it uses the nav/com frequencies for the base and pad, or enter any long/lat. Not sure why Pursuit doesn’t show...

    No doubt he was told to, or ‘we’ll kick your arse’.

    Vessel Commerical LEO destinations and other space stations

    And no windows to look out? Like living on a submarine. For power and thermal, maybe an arm from each segment inward between spokes articulating to follow the sun, solar panels on the sun side and radiators on the shade side.

    I think that’s what tinnitus is, hearing a frequency. Mine’s about 8k Hz or so, seems like square wave. There’s a site you can go to that will emit any frequency, several waveforms so you can match what you hear. My audiologist said she can tell the difference between noise related and age...

    Question Installing addons

    If only all the devs followed Martins’ instructions in his docs. I like diogom’s suggestion to copy manually, then you can put them where they belong, and catch the same file names thing.

    Wandering Earth

    You would have to convert the Earth itself to fuel, and I suspect you would run out of Earth long before you got far.

    Question DragonFly CoG issue

    :cry: But, at least it’ll give opportunity for clean install, if not the saved .scns.

    How come I didn’t think of that! I could have made myself really something. :unsure:

    OHM PursuitMFD 2016

    Not a problem. Enjoy. I also tried it several more times. You don’t have to do a deorbit burn, Pursuit does it for you. I tried it from orbit about 90 km, just within the atmosphere, worked just fine. I notice going east, it brings the DG right over the base buildings, which you would not do in...

    Question DragonFly CoG issue

    Sorry for the necroposting. I’ve had the same problem, it’s pretty much impossible to use Dragonfly to dock a module to another vessel because of the CoG problem. But, I tried something last week and this week - PursuitMFD. It works wonderfully well with off center maneuvering. I opened for...

    OHM PursuitMFD 2016

    Yes, it even shows up on my MFD menu items. Oh, should it be activated in the launchpad modules? BaseSync says it’s synced with GS2, but, it just doesn’t seem to act correctly. I’ll have to try again. First time I tried either, probably just a learning curve.
