Hello everyone! My name is Craig, and I have had Orbiter 2010 for about two weeks now.
My parents worked together at Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama. I was born and raised here, and you might say spaceflight is in my blood. I can't help but be interested in the space program with rocket scientists for parents. They took me to shuttle launches, introduced me to some astronauts, showed me around the facilities at MSFC, and paid for me to go to Space Camp right here in Huntsville.
A few weeks ago my brother suggested I look for a good space flight simulator. After a few Google searches I found Orbiter, downloaded it, and started learning. I'm extremely impressed so far, having completed the checklist missions for the delta glider (after several days of trial and error). As soon as I see my parents over the holidays, I am going to show them this awesome simulator.
I still have a lot to learn, and I'm hoping to find some answers here in the forums. As a casual user, it is possible that I won't check in regularly, and I hope that won't be a problem.

The last astronaut I remember meeting was Curt Brown; my son and I met him at a meet-and-greet at an airshow a couple of years ago.
