G4 TV Pulse Episode #116 - Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator 3 w/Jim Downs and Craig Pentecost

Jim Downs and I taking a ride in my old SNJ-5C at Oshkosh 2002. For the record:
1.) No, a loop is probably not useful in a dogfight but some elements of and skills req'd to fly one might be.
2.) The "Split S" should not have required any aileron input on at the end. I'm sure we did a better one, but that's the one they used.
Regardless, it was my first "Aviation Coordinator" credit, and it was much fun helping Jim with an episode of his G4TV show - Pulse.

He's a great guy. Too bad you have a negative impression of him. I doubt seriously that he mistreated his coworkers.  Someone may be telling you stories.

Jim Downs is a jackass. He ruined the Screen Savers and I heard treated his coworkers like shit

[redpennymusic]

@abehammy Have you ever met Jim?

[boredstudent]

so where the fuck is Ronilyn Reilly?

@abehammy Well, I think he's a jackass mainly cause he unnecessarily changed The Screen Savers from a pure and fun tech show to another entertainment/pop culture show.
