metalnwood Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 Not about gloves but only slightly off-topic: http://worteldrie.com/flash/emergency.swf So who is wearing a helmet then?
LawnDart Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 Please define this. :megalol: half baked = 1) Foolish, poorly thought out, ill conceived; 2) Used to describe someone who is under the heavy influence of weed; 3) An expression from Northern Ireland meaning that someone has had their head cut in half. The person's face is refered to as their "bake", therefore someone with half a face is "half-baked". ghetto = 1) Run down poor side of town or when something is jerry-rigged and looks like it was made in a half-assed fashion; 2) Opposite of the meaning "pimp"; 3) Could also be mislead by middle-class speak for cool, hip, now, happenin'. gloves = 1) Slang term for condom, as used in "Can I Get a What What" by Jay-Z; 2) The things you wear on your hands you effen moron... Duh, why does this need defined. ;) So, what I meant to say was: "Hip and happenin' hand condoms for pot heads from Northern Ireland." :D [sigpic]http://www.virtualthunderbirds.com/Signatures/sig_LD.jpg[/sigpic] Virtual Thunderbirds, LLC | Sponsored by Thrustmaster Corsair 750D Case | Corsair RM850i PSU | ASUS ROG MAXIMUS X CODE | 32GB Corsair DDR4 3200 | Intel i7-8086K | Corsair Hydro H100i v2 Cooler | EVGA GTX 1080 Ti FTW | Oculus Rift | X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty | Samsung SSD 970 EVO 1TB NVMe | Samsung SSD 850 EVO 1TB | WD Caviar Black 2 x 1TB | TM HOTAS Warthog | TM Pendular Rudder | TM MFD Cougar Pack | 40" LG 1080p LED | Win10 |

Succellus Posted January 4, 2011 Posted January 4, 2011 Really, does it matter what type of gloves they are? You're inside a hopefully heated house while simming. No fear of frostbite. Still, Nomex gloves are just cool! Dish washer gloves, Boxing gloves anyone ? HaF 922, Asus rampage extreme 3 gene, I7 950 with Noctua D14, MSI gtx 460 hawk, G skill 1600 8gb, 1.5 giga samsung HD.

Steel Jaw Posted January 5, 2011 Posted January 5, 2011 Damn you people !! Just picked up some really nice deerskin gloves...they feel absolutely perfect with the Cougar.

Steel Jaw Posted January 5, 2011 Posted January 5, 2011 The only reason us real pilots wear flight gloves is for fire protection. So unless your computer monitor has a habit of spontaneously combusting, I'd forgo the flight gloves. Up until a few minutes ago I would have agreed. But the Cougar is cold amd hands sweat when the action starts. The deerskin gloves are definately not ghetto, in fact a close approximation to what the T-Birds wore. Now there's no turning back.

Steel Jaw Posted January 5, 2011 Posted January 5, 2011 (edited) Are you going to cut the fingertips out? I dunno yet. But it seems I might have to cut the right pinkie to use the S3.

doright Posted August 6, 2013 Posted August 6, 2013 Back when my Cougar was in a very warm room I would sometimes wear a golf glove. Cheap, easy to find and only needed a glove on my right hand.
