No, but you can jack an Ipod into most ICSs...


At least I've heard you can. Not that I would ever do such a thing. Ever.
Yeah, right!

PR's definitely DO NOT know how to rig up an iPod ICS adapter.
Should have told me, it's as easy as drinking beer. :D

slight A6 Intruder thread course correction:

You might appreciate this ... I flew a couple of the Shah's Whales after they were 'repossessed' ... they were set up significantly different than most others -- I'm specifically referring to the cockpit/upper deck area. In fact, the freighter was positively 'luxurious' when compared to crew accommodations found on the upper deck of most (all?) 747 freighters in my experience.

'Cept they had removed all the gold-plated fixtures in the galley & head when we flew 'em ... :(

Don't Stop Me Now

I wonder if the moles will believe that playing Death, Mastodon and Judas Priest improves my ball flying?

MB: Play this one to improve your CATSHOTS... (from Queen"s Greatest Hits, disc #1) "Don't Stop Me Now", perfect fit!;)

I thought this would be a worthy addition to any Intruder thread. Pretty cool video of a snakeye drop in there at about 2:00.

I don't think anyone could 'LOVE' an INTRUDER ... trust it, depend on it, get comfortable in it, yes. 'Love it' ... well ... :)

I LOVE the A-4. On the other end of the spectrum, I LOVE the 747.

I LOVE pizza.

I really, really trusted, depended upon, and got 'comfortable' in the A-6 ...
