Here are half a dozen shots of RNoAF F-16s that are being used in the Libyan campaign:- They are considerably reduced size files from the ones published on PPRuNe but still high quality.

Joe, That photo has been sitting around waiting for a scan for a long time now...I don't know why I never got around to it till yesterday

Keiran...Yes, you would be surprised how many...Every time I look at that picture another few memories from 208 just pop into my head. Nearly all of them are good :smile:

Here is my Stream Landings video re-rendered in 1080 HD and very suitable for Full Screen viewing. Click the resolution up to 1080 HD and then if you have a slowish Broadband which causes buffering pauses, click the Pause icon in the bottom left corner...Now WAIT as the pink band moves from left to right, till it gets about halfway across. Now click that same Pause icon to start it running again and finally click the Full Screen icon at bottom right...It should now run through without further pausing. Thanks for looking

Thanks for the comment Joe

No, you only saw me start the APU...When that gets going you need to start the three main engines...You didn't see that bit! And then in the Trident 3, if the runway was short or the weather very hot, you had to start the Boost engine just before take-off :biggrin:

Well I have not yet got enough confidence with helicopters to attempt landing on small space like an oil rig!...I like the floats because the bay is so big :lol:

A few shots testing the JF R44... Take off produces the usual ripples on the water. The cruise ship is Royal Caribbean "Freedom of the Seas". Following the pair of fishing trawlers out towards the pod of Humpbacks. Right on cue they start broaching... ...and there is always one that gets in the way! Missed him by Jove! The cruise ship in the waiting anchorage today is "Queen Mary II". Coming to the hover near the marina and... ...parked at the water's edge near the "Small Freight" site. Thanks for looking

Well they are just loafing about at the moment Mark...Bandit Enterprises is pondering on what to do as the next "project"...They know they are getting a BBJ3 soon and the livery for that is posing some questions

Thanks Gents, for the comments That little JF Archer handles very nicely for what I call my "Spitfire Circuit" :lol:

...at my Alaska base. There goes one of the fishing trawlers going out to take advantage of this clear spell. Breaking round behind him... ...to show my passengers... ...a glimpse of whales. I don't know how I manage to avoid... ...all those seagulls! That cruise liner in the waiting anchorage is the Holland America Line's "Vollendam". Back in the bay now and approaching the island lighthouse. This cruise ship in the main anchorage is the Princess Line's "Island Princess". "Clione", our tourist boat is nearing its turn at the lighthouse. I'm now on a low base l

Yes, Sirius was still below the horizon when I took those shots...Sirius is the brightest star in the sky.

Astronomy Joe Yes, the three aligned stars are his belt and the sword hangs down from that...The top left star is Betelgeuse (a red giant) and the bottom right star is Rigel (orientation for the Northern Hemisphere...If you look in New Zealand it is upside down).

I saw a recommendation for a lights improvement for FS9 by Nick Needham and I installed them from the download file called "Nicks_Lightfix_V2.zip". I am very pleased with the results and here are a sequence of Traffic screenshots...The only edits are on the 1st, 8th and 9th, which have the contrast increased to show the star constellations. The package provides auto installers to install the new lights or restore the original lights...The "install new lights" offers installers for "Aircraft Lights", "Airport Lights", "Landing Lights" and "Tower and Ground Beacon Lights" with excellent instru

Since I updated this video to HD it has become my firm favourite...In Full Screen mode and 1080 resolution I can see so many small details around my base...I spot something new every time I run it Just in case anyone does not know how this sort of flying is done...I flew all three aeroplanes...First on my own in the Red Machine. Then I played that back as Traffic and formated on it, in the Blue machine with the chrome cowling, and split at the right time and came in the right way to thread the needle with the Red machine while rolling in time to his roll. Finally I played back both of tho
