Sorry, I didn't make that very clear. That IS my contest entry. What I meant was, it wasn't chosen as one of the winners.
The Red Arrows are the DSB Hawk. I got them to line up neatly by making a template on the ground with EZ Scenery, positioning the Hawk over the right spot, then slewing up to my chosen altitude of 3200'. The screenshot was taken from the tower, zoomed right in so the plane filled the screen. Then I slewed back down to the template, moved the Hawk over to the next spot, slewed back up to 3200' again and took another screenshot from the tower. Eventually I had 9 Hawk screenshots taken from slightly different angles, when I put them together in Photoshop and reduced the size of each one they all fitted together perfectly.
Same with the Vulcan on another layer (also taken from the tower view), then the clouds behind it on yet another layer.
It makes awesome wallpaper ;D
