I have a 2 week trip business to Sicily scheduled for August. I will probally be pretty busy, but I'm hopeing that I will get atleast a day to do some sight seeing.
So what is the must see site on the island of Sicily?

Sorry I could not resist.

The servers on the hyperlobby are pretty good. Most games consist of shooting down a number of enemy planes / killing pilots or completing an objective ... ie shooting up supply coloum. So the battles tend to be less of a free for all than in other flight sims. The servers also have different realism setting, so its easy to find a game that you can enjoy.
I personally like the following three servers
Warclouds_TOH
Warclouds_44
Forgottenserver
Hyperlobby also has standard dogfigth servers and coop ... but I have not given them a try.

I have a pretty good IL-2 addiction going right now. I use the same screen name in the Hyperlobby multiplayer. Not to brag but I'm always being talked about when I play.
"Gadzilla looses wing to So and So's fire"
"Gadzilla fried in cockpit"
"Gadzilla crashes"
ect

I am most impressed that it keeps functioning after multiple hull penetrations.

With the help of wiskey, I can be less than one player.

I went to boot on the Island then to TN for A school, spent my 5 years as an CH-46 Chrewcheif and Machanic. My squadron HMM-164, as part of the 15th MEU, did the initial invasion for "Operation Restore Hope". After the Marines I went to Penn State got a degree in Aerospace engineering and now I'm back working with the Marines
(as a civilian engineer) on a rotorcraft flight test program. We were both in Tustin at around the same time! I was in flightline in the Screw & 363 a couple of line shacks down from yours and across the way from you guys in Hangar 1. (Unless I'm mistaken and you were out of Hangar 2)

Your big maintaince savings with a gas turbine is that you dont really do much to it in the field, other than the usuall preventitive stuff. When there is a problem you just pull the entire engine out, which is not a big deal because of its lightness, and pop another one in. The bad engine gets packed into a big can and shipped to a rework facillity in the rear. I have some experience with this I was a USMC helo Crewchief.

Anyone have a link to a map showing the invasion beaches?
Thanks for the tips. I will be sure to burn up a few rolls of digital film
