- Pressing "SHIFT-Z" accelerates the time and "SHIFT-X" decelerates the time. Also,
- if your "Opponent Level" is "Elite", I doubt that you'd be able to get in and out
- without a bunch of planes on your tail. Once the radars pick you up, you'll get
- a bunch of "F4E taking off from ..." or whatever - i.e., they scramble right away.

- BTW, Hoi Chong mentioned about downloading fixes. The only one I have received
- so far was a voice enhancement from some guy - it put in "Cleared for TakeOff",
- etc. Where are you downloading fixes from? The MPS BBS? Just wondering whether
- it was worth it to dial into their BBS for anything?

- Thanks,
- Norm.
