And they don't have miles in Zagreb, they have kilometara, and they don't have miles in Germany either. |

27 May 11 - 05:44 PM (#3161481) Subject: RE: BS: Lost in Europe? From: Mysha Hi, Well, it's possible to hit cities quite closely, like Lisboa at 1 mile. It's a bit curious, though, as most airports aren't that close to the city at all. It is indeed a bit strange that they removed the Peloponnesos while they do show Corsica, which is less than half the size. I also didn't like to be asked to pick Frankfurt on a blank map, without a mention of which one. Well, a fun diversion. And scores above the twenty nine thousand are possible. But I hope that when I go flying for the first time in my life, planes take of slightly more smoothly than Ready! Set ... And it's off. The speed is impressive, though. Too bad there was no return game; I might have learned something, for the holiday to come. Bye, Mysha |
