Same here. As a professional geek I'd love to hop on a teamspeak or similar and have you run through your technology setup. I'd bet there's something you're doing that I can learn from...

Hey,

I would be more than happy to explain all this stuff to anybody interested. :) I've never personally used TeamSpeak, but am open to learning about how it works if its' most convenient. The most important aspect of my tech setup is ItsYourPlane, a program which lets us control most airplanes with voice commands. This combines with the fact that FSX, at least, uses mostly standard Windows controls outside of the cockpit.

I haven't flown on PE in a few days, but look forward to being able to do so again soon.
