September
28, 2005 - Fuller's
London Pride is one of many fine examples of
English brew, with a head that is spectacular and
a flavor that is menacingly drinkable. Is it worth
the price? Find

September
19, 2005 - Stuck in France longer than expected
forced us to sample yet another French brew - Kronenbourg
1664. How can such a culture credited with advancements
in fine art and refined food produce something so
characterless? We'll ponder that and more
here...
September
15, 2005 - Big numbers have been passed here
in The
Flight of The Hopper project! We passed the
8,000 nautical mile mark, the 40 hour
flight time mark, and most importantly, we've
had over 100 beers! Wow. Still 5 and a half
continents to go, too!

15, 2005 - We're in love. FS
Passengers is one of the neatest little add-ons
for Flight Simulator we're run across, and we've
now incorporated it into the adventure. Passengers
will now risk their lives while flying with the
crew around the world. To find out more about this
clever little program, visit
their website here...

September
1, 2005 - What a Mesh! The Flight of The
Hopper project has now incorporated the fine
meshes created by the gang at FS
Genesis. The plan is to acquire the meshes we
need to complete our world journey as we travel.
If you haven't seen the difference a mesh can make
in your scenery, visit
FS Genesis here...
