    vida .... "One-eyed"

    Arrr, One-eyed, the name be granted and feared already! With a single gaze sharper than a cutlass, ye'll strike terror from port to port. Keep yer good eye on the prize, and may the seas bend to yer will, ye scurvy legend!

    So, this race is a dash between the starting point and the finish line, except the finish line is 21,600 nautical miles long (give or take), as opposite to the normal two miles.

    Looks like a fantastic idea.

    Pop-up window size
    Board » Technical Support
    Hi Kipper,

    Is there a way to reduce the size of the "AutoGrib" pop-up window? The window that pops up after we double click AG14.bat.

    I am on a small 11" laptop and since the AutoGrib pop up wind does not have a side scroll slider I cannot see and cannot click on "Apply". The pop up window takes over the whole monitor. Yes, I can adjust the margins with my mouse but there is no way to make the bottom buttons to show up.

    I understand this may be a MS-Windows question, but I looked all over the internet and could not find the solution.

    Is there any sort of flag codded in AGL that specify the size of the pop-up window that can be edited?

    Thank you for any assistance.
    Attached is a screenshot for reference.
    Cheers,

    Hi Kipper1258,

    Is there a way to reduce the size of the "AutoGrib" pop up window?

    I am using a small 11" laptop and cannot use AGL14 because the "AutoGrib" pop-up window is too big, and I am not able to see and click the "Apply" button. The window doesn't have a side scroll bar.

    I searched the internet for a solution, since this maybe a MS-Windows question, but could not find it.

    Perhaps there is some sort of flag coded in AGL that specify the size of the pop up window. If so, I could edit that flag if I knew where to find it.

    Please I appreciate any assistance.

    Thanks.

    Hi Kipper,
    I am trying to install AGL14 and when I run "AG14_pause.bat" it says "The system cannot find the path specified"
    I've checked several times the paths and the seam to be correct.
    I added scream shots of the paths and the DOS scream with the error message.

    Please and guidance will be appreciated. Thank you.

Skimmer Dragonfly - India to East Africa 2026


In the autumn, when the rains stop and the tourists thicken in Goa and along the north western coast of India, globe skimming dragonfly climb to the skies (up to 1500m) to catch the high-altitude ITCZ winds and glide south west to East Africa. We’ll stay at sea level, where alas the winds will be less predictable, and race them there, the whole 2400nm of the way, in Carkeek 40s.

Mad Max by Balloon 2026 - Across the Outback


Mad Max Rockatansky doesn’t get to go in a balloon in any of the Legends of the Wasteland, and the Wasteland is not necessarily the Outback of Australia, but Mel Gibson and film director George Miller indubitably are… of Australia, and ballooning as reconnaissance is a main feature of the Mad Max spin-off video game, so here goes: 1500nm in a balloon from somewhere on the edge of the Outback, Goondiwindi, to cross a finish line at Fitzroy Crossing, somewhere on the edge of the Outback!
