If I could I would. If I don't, it's because I am lazy!

Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the Ark. Professionals built the Titanic.

I re-joined VUAL in September after a leave. I really enjoy this VA as everyone really seems to be very personable and friendly. I enjoy the challenges offered in the form of awards badges. I have been flight simming since FS98. Boy does that make me feel old. I am a restaurant owner in the Denver Metro area and have a wife and two daughters.

Look forward to seeing you all in the virtual skies!

Name: Mazen Abdelsalam
Current Location: Munich, Germany
Occupation: Mobile Communications Engineer/Consultant (Self employed)
Sim: FSX-SE, X-Plane 11, P3D V4
Hobbies: Aviation (Flying for real besides simming), Soccer, bowling, and traveling.
Kid: 2 (son 16 and daughter 12)
Age: 44
Pets: 1 Cat (Timber).

I've just noticed this thread (sorry). I am simming since very long time and flying online since 2008 (mainly IVAO with more than 3500 hours logged) VATSIM as well. Because of working in another city, I only fly on weekends when having access to my computer. Recently trying to sim more on XP11 and I am participating in the beta of A320 Ultimate (very advanced model). P3D V4 add-on installations are in progress and I will be soon switching completely to 64bit and no more FSX (I will retire it for good in the next few weeks!).
