I'll start.

Second! Love that cockpit view piper, it`s been a while since I`ve sat in that one

Bravo..!

This thread could be about buttons

Very nice.

Awesome pics! Love both those sims. Here is mine.....

That's some pretty sand. Very white.

Preparing to take off from Strike U.

Nice.


Wheels

This is realy awesome I like your thinking

Cool picture Mace! I love Varmit's F-18! ..just wish it wasn't in FSX..

And with pics like the above it's official - TrackIR on the birthday wish list for me.. I've tried to convince myself it's not super sweet for long enough.

Best investment you will ever make..maybe even better than a HOTAS. TIR is awesome awesome awesome!

Awesome

All really cool looking shots!

ROb

This is what my cockpit view is usually like....

Why are you taking pictures of tomatoes?

Thanks Beach. I find videos, heck screenshots with it in action to be immersive, can't imagine what it's like to use.

I couldn't fly without now, definitely worth the investment.

First, I take issue with the title of your thread Piper. To say we need more planes suggests one could attain a state wherein they have enough planes. Never in history has an aviator ever been in this state.



Second: Onto the plane pr0n!

A better picture of Section Eight

And DethJeff


It is good to play with folks on the other games that are just as friendly as those over in the ArmA2 server. Thanks, had a blast.

Some of my old ones.

Beans, in that picture I do see the trails of the fuel leak. Odd that I couldn't see it when in game last night.

Yes it was a blast!

Out to dinner tonite, see what happens after...

One of my better landings.






Wheels

Za Rodinu!

Wow some great shots! Keep it up.

3 Squadron over NYC.

found some oldies on my hd from about 6 odd years ago.

I need to re-install IL2...

Same here especially since new patch is out.

Just when I was going to ask which sim that was...

Rise of Flight representin'

From my attempt at this challenge in the "For Good Pilots" campaign at M4T. http://www.mission4today.com/index.php?name=Downloads&file=details&id=3102


I was surprised that I hit him. The "Enemy Aircraft Destroyed" message is for the plane that just crashed in the lower right of the screenshot. You can see the black smoke it trailed before hitting the water.


I did make it.



Wheels

Some Navy aircraft, one in X-Plane, other in FSX.

It was awfully nice of the NorCal controller to give the guy in the ultra-light clearance into the Bravo!

Scooter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Great entries here folks!
Keep posting!

OK, my attempts for today......

Alphasim EE Lightining and Blackburn Bucaneer, both ported over from FS9 into FSX. No editing (I don't know how...lol) simple Windows colour correction, and modified to JPG format.

Enjoy.

Andrew.

Are they stock FSX clouds FishTaco?

Mace;

Sorry about the delay in my reply.

Those are REX Overdrive clouds, in FSX :-)

Cheers,

Andrew.

Thought they looked too nice cheers.

Sweet pics guys

Shoulder check

Hi All,

Here is my contribution for more aircraft. Flying the Carenado Cessna Stationair 6 II over Acadia National Park, Maine for Hancock County, Bar Harbor Airport.


Wired

Nice shot Wired, good lookig aircraft and the landscape is amazing

Impressive, Kludger! What´s that? AeroSoft?

That thar be VRS Superbug!

Whoa...

Yep, VRS Superbug having just gone under the Deception Pass bridge from ORBX Anacortes scenery, REX clouds, fun way to start the flight after takeoff from Whidbey NAS to the left there...

Stinson over the Lost River Range of Idaho.

Nice ones!

Ok, I'll contribute something you don't see every day.

Cool what planes are those?

That last one looks pretty close to the "prototype" but never manufactured RAZBAM Convair 201 here in FSX:

It is the Razbam F/A-201. I was the guy who made it!

The first one is the abortive A/F-X A-12 replacement. Also by me. You can get it at combatace for SF2. I should release the 201 for SF2 as well some day when I can be bothered to do so

Haha cool I thought it looked similar! I love your plane, pretty fun, though I am still learning it, congrats on it.

Nice shots!, love the A2A P40 and I'm usually not a warbirds nut but got impatient waiting for their P51-D.

I'll add a couple of more, such a nice plane!

Demonstrating my new Albatros D.V skin for RoF's D.Va...



In action...

Permission to buzz the lighthouse denied! Oooops! Lol missing something there Harry?

Nice shots.

Looks like a new Stealth Tomcat...

WC

Here's a shot from a multiplayer flight last night. My so-called wingman hit me with a heater while we were flying around randomly at 29k feet, I lost both engines and I had to glide to homeplate. I was one long glide, many many miles, and I almost made it to the runway, but I ran out of energy just before, doh, and had to land on the grass. That was fun. You can see in the shot he's about to shoot in the background.

just something short of a supersonic stroll through the countryside.

Hi all,

Thanks! It's funny I never pay attention to the N number in the cockpit in FSX!

OH YEAH

I cut my eye teeth on these. Eagles rule.

Wired, where you get this jet?

Wrecking Crew

Nice shot! great scenery/lighting is that FSX or XP10?

Wrecking Crew,

The jet is the MilViz F-15E, for FSX. A joy to fly.

Wired,

That is FSX Acceleration with only free add-ons:

Scenery is from www.blueskyscenery.com (I have been downloading their stuff a lot lately)
Water is from the FS Water Configurator from www.strikingsoftware.com
Clouds from here: http://sites.google.com/site/aimecreations/freeware-fsx/fsx-clouds-screenshots
For sky textures, do a search for "HDEv2 Sky Color converted for FSX"
ENB Mod

Very cool Malibu43, certainly shows how well FSX can look with nothing but freeware, that's awesome.

^-- Dig it.

Nice one Lion.


Wheels

Decided to do some flying in the slow lane.



Wheels

A flight from ISP to FLL

Takeoff from ISP


Lake Ronkonkoma, NY


Gabreski Airport Long Island, NY


Over Montauk Pt. Long Island, NY


Leaving Guam

Air Test & Evaluation Squadron TWO THREE (VX-23) "Salty Dog" VRS Super Bug

Strike Fighter Squadron ONE FOUR (VFA-14)"Tophatters" Touring NYC, LGA and JFK VRS Superbug

I took a short little hope from 9S3 Lakeside State airport, which is one of favorites using the ORBX NA Blue scenery, and landed over at KRBG Roseburg Regional. Enjoy!

Run-up with a couple bloke's holding down my tail.



Climbing with the Merlin running hot and steaming real good. Thankfully I filled the Glycol before I left.





The town of Roseburg off to my 10 o'clock.





Turning base.



Flaps down.



Probably my favorite screenshot from this flight.



Lined up on final, with a little bit of a crosswind.



Touchdown just off to the left side of the centerline.

Hi All,

Flying into St Maarten and seeing a lot of beautiful scenery. Enjoy




On take off from St Maarten the jet engines cause a sand storm along the beach.

Wired

Excuse the jaggies, old machine and it's more about the scenery. Trona CA

Trying out the VRS Superbug + Switzerland Scenery from Aerosoft

Turning in for the kill.






Wheels

Lovely St Maarten shots Wired

enough planes









an old mission i made to see if they could drop an american flag bombing pattern on Japan , didnt quite work though lol.

Ajay, Ajay, Ajay, I don't know what to say. That is awesome on a certain level

Ajay, I'm gobsmacked! And I can't even park a plane at an airport with the FMB....


I really like this thread!-)

I'm pretty sure the thread is over: Ajay just won at the internet.

Hi All,

Here is another beautiful plane, unfortunately it is not made for FSX only FS9. It is Aeroworx's Super King Air B200. Enjoy



Flying in Colorado and landed at a small airstrip.

Wired

Very cool Ajay.


Wheels

Lol, that one jumped right out at me when it loaded AggressorBLUE. Nice one.


Wheels

Thanks Wheels!

BTW, that shot is unedited (kudos to REX/Shade/ENB)

Edit: And of course PMDG!

Hi all,

Flying over Nellis Airforce Base in MilViz F-15E and looking for a target to bomb. Enjoy!




Wired,

For sure , its like 2d ..in 3d

One of the campaigns I have been flying recently is a neat old mini-campaign. ME-109 Over The Jura by Gaston
Imo, it is best to fly it using the None (NN) country now because if you use everything in the download it will overwrite the current speech pack and menu music for the current French (FR) campaigns.

I am flying it using v4.11m and so far everything has worked in the None (NN) folder. Just make sure to change the menu music filename to "nn" from "fr" so it plays when you run the campaign in the NN folder.

I was a little bit surprised when the 2nd group leader flew across my path. Luckily I did not shoot him down.






Wheels

Nice shots Wheels, lots of airplanes in the same small piece of sky!

My wingman is out of frame and just behind me but there was definitely one plane I wasn't expecting in that little piece of sky.

Shortly after those shots I ended up getting tagged by the rear gunner on the left bomber too.


Wheels

Heheh sounds like fun, I really have to work on getting IL2 to run in Windows7 again, tried reinstalling a while back but it always exists after the CD check and splashpage even after I did that Securom update thing...

Oh well, for now some more airplane shots:




1. Ant's Eaglet takeoff from Dillingham field to Wheeler field in MegaSceneryX Oahu, REX2, FSGen mesh
2. Carenado 337 on the road to Hana in Maui VFR X, REX2, FSGen mesh

Cool shots kludger.

The digital download version of IL-2 1946 at GoG seems to work just fine with Win7.
IL-2 Sturmovik 1946 at GoG: http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/il_2_sturmovik_1946
This version does not have any DRM to mess it up.

GOG "About Us" page: http://www.gog.com/en/about



Wheels

Ah thanks good reminder of the GOG version, if I can't solve the problem with my disk version that will definitely be the route to go.

Flying around in the excellent A2A P-40 Warhawk in FSX has rekindled my interest in IL-2 so I can shoot stuff with it.

UPDATE:
I figured out my problem, when I did the last IL2-1946 patch dance I missed the 4.08 patch, I just did a fresh install and patch dance and things are working, woohoo! hope to get some IL2 battle screenies soon.

Captain Sim Boeing 737, FSX.



New and old:

Great looking shots Kludger!

Rob

A little OT, and I don't know what it's worth to you, but gog.com has IL2: 1946 for $10, and it works on Windows 7 and I'm pretty sure doesn't have Securom or any other invasive copy protection.

Nice shots _Michal, we sure are spoiled for good options for 737s now :-)

Thanks Arthonon will check it out.

That's correct. I bought IL-2: 1946 at BestBuy for $10 a couple of years ago and I was thrilled it worked with no issues at all on Win7. I don't even need the disc in the drive to run it.

Thanks, indeed. I have never flown heavy metal, except Boeing 377, C-130 and now this vintage 737. I'm finally considering 737 NGX. I guess I've grown up enough to fly a liner with FMC.
