Going to try make the Flight Sim Convention this year. Missed the last two.

Flight Sim 2013 was fantastic and I'm sure 2014 will be just as good if not better.

Thanks for the dates Blue. When you flying again?

Obx planning some good things with NCA(Northern California).

I see KMMH Mammoth Yosemite, Mammoth Lakes is on the list, we flew from there last night.:D

Lovely shots indeed although in shot #5 it is a little evident you used slew (not that there is anything wrong with using slew to take screen shots) to get that shot, due to the reversed vapor trials of the wings and lack of wing flex, unless that was a backward take off :D? Please do not see this as a negative criticism, just an observation after making that mistake many times myself in past screen shots.
 
Has anyone looked into getting an electronic flight bag for iPad?

Would be nice to have an iPad app that allows me to pull up charts and necessary info rather than printing everything out all the time.

I use Circle to Land for charts on my iPad, only covers a limited range of countries but does download the actual PDF documents from their equivalent of NATS.
 
WOW!! awesome shots Dappo :cool:

Very nice redline; would you mind sharing you Shade and SweetFX settings?

Cheers

SHADE is my 'Marks Final' which is one of the built-in presets.


These are my SweetFX settings for DX9... can you use this text format?

I use FlightFX to make changes.
