Imagine the noise these suckers create...
Nice view of the Boston skyline at dawn
Another angle, showing KBOS as we leave the airport behind
Who the heck ordered this right turn? No wonder TWA went bonkers

2 and 5 are nice....
Funny how that angle in #1 makes the takeoff anlge look so much steeper than it is!
Great shots nexus,

It does look like 40 degree rocket takeoff.
Great pics though.

Great pics, Nexus! Man, what are your PC specs? You must have a pretty good graphics card.

I got a Radeon 9800XT, more than capable of holding its own against the newer cards from Ati and Nvidia..but the show must go on. I'm waiting for my X800 XT platinum to arrive, it may be here in some weeks if I'm lucky! :-/
Pasted from Tom's hardware:
"Thanks to its performance advantage when using anisotropic filtering, the Radeon X800 XT Platinum Edition shows its rivals who's boss in this discipline without noticeably sacrificing image quality. Even the much less expensive X800 Pro with its 12 pipes can beat the GeForce 6800 Ultra in some game tests"
So expect even cirsper shots in the future I suppose :)
Thanks for watching fellas!

NEXUS!! I'm shocked to see such...well, abnormal flying by your standards. (COUGH steep pitch COUGH) ;D
Trust me...your images show the visual quality of FS9 at it's absolute max. The newer cards will not bring better image quality...it's SPEED that you gain from them.

Haha, I was busy taking shots (pressing F10 with FRAPS) and suddenly the speed was well above 140kts, don't kow what my co-pilot was doing, he was as quiet as a nine year old girl at sunday school...
The 707 also reacts very slow to your controls, something I had a

Love the first shot. It definitely does give the impression the 707 is taking off like something from NASA
