Hello all, sniff, sniff.....dang I love the smell of a new web site. ;D I can't wait to hit the launch pad with this new Space Shuttle Mission 2007. I can tell right now I am going to be planted in front of this computer floating around the earth like I do with the first version when I am not saving lives or putting out fires. ;D Thank you for this great looking web site. I am going to make it my new home. :P

Welcome Danny,

Have fun and feel like home. If you've enjoyed S3 or any other Shuttle sim in the past, you'll definitely enjoy this one. Keep the anticipation fire under control though - you'll need the PC to play the game - LOL!

Have a good one,
Al

Hello all

Been a follower of the Space Shuttle Program since I bunked off school in 1981 to see the first launch :)

Also a fair pilot from existing sims.

When I found this project I punched the air :) Can't wait for the this one. Good luck with the testing, GO SSM 07!

Welcome Becker07!

Don't bunk off work or family to play SSM07 :D. The game will always be there, waiting for you on the PC and challenging you with another mission.

See you in orbit,
Al

Hey, I have been following this program for about 2 years. I never posted in the old forums much though. This is by far the best shuttle program around, and I am happy to see that the new version is not far away.

Hi I too have been following S3 for some time, and this would be another fine sim to add to the collection.

Just aquick 'who I am'; I'm responsible for the little Paper model of the shuttle cockpit on S3 webiste in the download section. An Alpha version is in the works, but I'm still ironing out better ways of making it, has it is rather complex and troublesome. My very much out of date website is at www.stsintrepid.freeuk.com.

Anyways, hope the Beta testing is going smooth, as I test a commerical Sim and finding all the little bugs can be 'Challenging'

Hi George, welcome.

Nice website. You should update it a bit too. It is worth it...

Best,
Al

...And a hello from me to all of you as well!
It's nice to see all these familiar faces (or names, whatever you want) here,
it's good knowing everyone is making the "transition" with us :)

And George, didn't hear anything from you in a long time.
Congrats on getting married by the way :)
I've been checking your site about once every few months,
only to see that the 'updated'-date never changed...
Good to hear you're going to continue your work though!

Hi Tonie and thanks for the congrats :) Glad to see your still around as well, and I hope life is treating you as well. Sorry not been in contact I've had a busy life for last year or so. Been working on another project, which need a lot of my free time researching, designing and testing. I've restarted the shuttle cockpit yesterday, and have re-designed the fwd, Left and right base panels. I've also optimised all of the switches, as the CPU was getting stressed with generating all of them :) As I said previously, the new year will hopefully have an updated site.

Glad to see Toine here also. Hope schools good. Also glad you guys hooked up
with Al. Hope you guys get rewarded for all the time you've spent the past few years. I'll continue being a supporter until it arrives! "Press to MECO".

I was looking at the screen shot again I was talking about above, and it looks like it is the Space Shuttle Endeavour. And if I am not mistaken it looks like Unity in the payload bay so I am thinking it must be STS-88. ;D
