This is my favourite content on the site! Cant wait for Drew to return to complete the trio.

The shuttle wasn't capable of going to the moon. Just sayin'.

Are you a highly trained engineer, or did you just watch an internet video and decide to be a dork on an internet forum?

Are you threatened by intelligence, or do you consider it a badge of honor to wave your ignorance around an internet forum?

It's simple physics, no intensive training necessary. The shuttle's rockets don't provide the lift to go to the moon, because the shuttle wasn't designed to go to the moon.

I assumed you were waving conspiracy theories around, for my ignorance I apologize.

"I think you don't shoot something for like 20 minutes" is a truthful statement about what Doom 3 thinks you want in a Doom game (for me, they were wrong)

Fantastic

There was no shortage of crashing so it was a successful Flight Club.

First rule of Flight Club.

No Dorks Allowed

From fantasy to the near future, Vinny "Crash Test" Caravella and Dave "Rocket Man" Snider will be there representing the Flight Club. Thanks for the entertaining show gentlemen. Godspeed.

first!?

I believe that word disqualifies you from the quest.

i enjoyed this very much thank you Vinny and Dave 

does this actually get good or it just them being dumbasses in the space shuttle sim the entire time?

Lunar Flight is amazing. You guys should have me over so I can show you how to land a lunar lander without crashing at 11 meters a second.

Random PC game and Flight Club are two of my favourite things to exist on the internet. :D

The capricious switch-flipping was really stressing me out.

Nice extremely random MGS humming at the end.

And momentum was the end of them. That and Vinny jamming the main thruster to slow down...

i vote for 500% more flight club.

"I feel like we're falling"

Silly Dave! Thats what orbit is!

Live streaming the wedding?!

I've been laughing for the 15 minutes straight. Love you guys!

oh jesus, my very first computer had like two games on it: hugos house of horror and apparently ultima 8. I didn't know the title at the time cuz I was like 6 or something, but I remember this beheading scene so vividly. I have been trying to find out what game it was for so long. so thank you for bringing my over a decade long search to a wonderful close.

Oh man I wish they just played Doom 3 instead, that was great. Watching them fail at both Space Shuttle and Lunar Flight is not really fun to me without Drew there to be the voice of reason.

Though i find it funny how after all those space missions they land on Mars and everything goes to hell. Very fitting.

Go.... Flight club!

The first rule of flight club: Always crash in flight club.

Damn i thought this was Kerbal.
 
Cool anyway, but you guys should totally look at Kerbal Space Program.

Man, Doom 3 looks SO MUCH WORSE than I remembered, visually.

This video alone made it so worth getting a premium membership :D

The only thing I was hoping they would look at was the LOPTW window. A frank reaction to using an in-game spreadsheet to help calibrate a flight path would have been HILARIOUS!

They should have just played Kerbal Space Program and built, launched and landed a rocket of their own design.

Oh fuck yes. YESSSSSS.

Please read and do this, Dave, Drew and or Vinny!

Moon meth lab. I laughed so hard.

A brave new world, that has such people in it!

Giant Bomb Flight Club, Assemble!

Wrong Ultima to get to Space, you apparently go to space in Ultima I and Ultima II.

Thank god content with no Brad. Was starting to reconsider my subscription.

I love when Drew is away, these flight sims go from realistic to nothing but messing with the game. I LOVE it!

@Helios1337 said:

Awesome, uploaded already! I missed it due to confusion on what time zone the "Coming Up on Giantbomb" was listed in.

It should be yours.

Random and messy, just how I like my Giantbomb.

A real shame about that NASA space sim though. What good is a sim if you can't cause some explosions?

Thanks for the quick upload Vinny. This made my night! Love the Flight Club!

PC GAMIN'! WHACHU SAY HADCORE DAVE?!

Seriously, I freaking love these crazy ass hardcore sims, that includes playing them AND watching someone else do so.

D12 - Flight Music

thank you for the super quick upload! this is an absolute delight to watch. i'm not sure how i would feel if the flight club was members' only, but i love these videos regardless.

@Krataur said:

If Flight Clubs are now premium members only, I guess I signed up at the right time.

actually i think it'll be kind of a bummer that it's member only. with niche products like flight sims; the more awareness you create for them the more support they can get.

So i wonder if, when Drew comes, back they'll do a proper quick look of Lunar Flight, after they get some hands on time, and save the Flight Club stuff for playing the game sight unseen.

Though, as far as Lunar Flight goes, after you figure out what to do and how it all works the game gets pretty boring.

The Music is great in Lunar Flight..

Got a shout out from Dave as i tried to explain what the Velocity marker was. +

This was so fucking awesome guys! Couldnt stop laughing at lunar flight attempts. Thanks Vinny and Dave! Peace Duders

This was a glorious way to start my weekend.

Vinny, YOU are driving.!!

LoLoLoLoLoLLLLL
