Flight Simulator in Excel

Do you have Excel 97 ? And you lack money to buy Flight Simulator ? No problem . Consistent with Windows 98 and IE 4.0 , MS has used their philosophy of "Everything inside one" ! Try these , unbelievable , but it works .

1. Restart Excel 97 .
2. Open a new blank document .
3. Press F5 .
4. A reference box will open , type in X97:L97 and press ENTER .
5. Press TAB .This will take you to the cell M97 .
6. Click on the chart wizard button while holding down Control and Shift keys .

Presto ! You are in Flight Simulator . Use mouse to navigate and mouse buttons for speed control . Control+Shift+Escape ends this and takes you back to Excel .

My take: probably more unfounded hysteria. the real terrorists are laughing at us from their homes/caves/trashdumps.

Time for Palne profiling.

It's Pal Knee. She's from Tie Land, but is moving soon. She's had a hugh problem with a series illness.

Hot tip: don't pee in the aisle.

I take these situations seriously as I think the terrorists are testing the system.
I am prepared for these every day now as they will try to lull us to sleep and hit at random.

[Central Scrutiniser]

I fly standby, so if I make the flight, its a good thing.

[dinoparty]

Its a bird, its a palne, its SUPERMAN!

Gatwick - they had a security breach there the other day.

Thailand?

Just curious. Can anyone ever recall the police finding a bomb after someone made a bomb threat? Who plants a bomb and then alerts authorities that he or she had just planted a bomb? Defeats the purpose, right? Our "doom and gloom" media, including Drudge, get sucked in every time.

This thread will never reach a series Palne.

No bomb reported after a "full" luggage search.

And liberals trying to cause chaos on planes so they can say "seeeee.. our being in Iraq is diverting security at home." My loathing of libs has hit new highs.

Another day........... another diverted plane with loon on board.
