It says something is Arabic, I was hoping that you can translate that for us. As it is within Flash, Google translator does not work.

If I have my Garmin 695 with me I can take it out and put it in simulation mode making it appear that we are actually flying way, way, off course, People believe what they see.

I just saw it. It doesn't say anything, just a bunch of letters thrown together to look like some Arabic/Persian/Urdu text.

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: That is great. Except it'll surely land you in a big load of trouble, and how do you get Internet on an airplane anyways? I mean, I fly Southwest! Marc
You can do that these days through your mobile line, but you'll be paying through the nose.

Dear God, when those things first came out, I got one with a rental car and *somehow* I put it in simulate mode, oh was that ever fun. There was no mention of the simulation on the runtime display and for the first part of my trip it seemed pretty accurate. That is until after the first stop light, things then got ugly very quickly (way, way off course)...The wife still brings it up :(( :laugh: :(( .

This would be a nice way to end the flight early, I think.

Nice! How about this: type "offended" in the address bar of FireFox, hit enter, scroll down the page Probably less likely to get you into trouble

I tried what you suggested. Where can I get some bleach strong enough to get those images out of my brain and eyes?

Better than the alternative.

My favorite solution is to ask him how much he paid for his seat, then tell him you paid (mention a sum about 1/2 what he paid). Guaranteed he'll shut up after that.
