Hey Sam, now you show your face.. I Didn't realise it was Samantha -
Oh that's clever! Well done, which one was you?

Welcome TR I hope you enjoy your time here and John is right we are still looking for a pilot for leg 44 Cheers

:good Good grief Reef, you didn't actually have to go out there in real life to take shots! An excellent début, these shots have certainly set the gold standard, well done, great commentary too. I'm pleased you enjoyed the flight, it's nice making flights that have been created for you, I am going to enjoy these quite a few more times! As you say we need a pilot for the next leg, we have a back up i.e me, but I am hoping to get a different pilot in each flight. Cheers

Name: FS2004/FSX Grumman American AA-5B Tiger Publisher/Author: Tim Piglet Conrad Available from: http://flyawaysimulation.com/downloads- ... tails.html Freeware! Description: First introduced in 1974, the AA-5 series were unique in their bonded honeycomb airframes, producing a simple, smooth, and strong structure. With a sliding canopy and quick controls, the AA-5 were a breed apart. The later AA-5B series had more powerful engines, giving a needed boost in performance. This FS2004/FSX model is painted in a real world paint scheme, and has full ani's and VC with some custom gauges. I

Hi Sam, You have surpassed yourself with these shots, they are all prize winners I can honestly say I have never seen better, great editing on some of the shots, not to OTT Well done and thanks for posting.

E.J I was a beta tester for FSX SP1, quite early on the advances they made if you have a dual or quad core processor made so much difference to the fluidity. I get 40's with FSX, not with all the sliders up though, I don't have light bloom switched on any more (Unless I want a certain effect in a screenshot) as that is a frame killer so it's no worse for me than FS2004 was when it first came out. Over the UK I fly with photo scenery and have the autogen switched off, that really helps too.

Erm, default FSX Glider

For a different reason this time. High over Saint Maarten with the sun rapidly moving to the horizon I decided to call it a day (or an evening!) aircraft just touched down Very long finals, I've got clearance but they couldn't refuse me! The approach seem to take for ever. Lining her up, not far to go. My hotel for the night if I make it.. ... And my bar! I will have to dodge him, I can't exactly go around. Off to the left to make sure I don't drop on top of him Back on line, gently does it. Thump! Pulled off to the side whilst I still had momentum as I could
