Complicated web site.
It would be nice if www.stickworks.com had a SEARCH button.
One thing I'd like to know is how to run MSFS 2004 without having to
always put the CDROM in (what a pain in the seat of the pants).


I googled to find the "no cd" for MS FS 2004.
Apparently that was an oft-asked question.
I guess *everyone* wants to make MSFS 2004 more usable.
It's so irritating with that 4th CDrom (at least to me).
Luckily there *are* people who care about us, for example:

Back on topic:
I googled for the CH Pro Rudder Pedals.
They apparently sell (at least) two flavors:
a) $100 CH Pro Rudder Pedals, USB, PN#: 300-111
b) $85 CH Pro Rudder Pedals, serial?, PN# 300-110
Interestingly, they seem to work for cars so maybe I wasted my money
buying the Formula GP Racing Wheel with gas & brake pedals.

But wait.
Just as I was editing this, I saw the post from Michael K.
You CAN use those pedals of yours... together with the stick.

Hhhmmmhhmmhmmm. Let me read that and respond separately.
