In these shots I am ferrying the new B-17 for FSX from Shockwave. The flight was from Portland to Vancouver.

This is one of the best planes yet for FSX.

The realism built into this is amazing. You have to be super careful of all your settings or she will start throwing oil and overheating. Check out the specular lighting in the last shot.

Truly a great job !!!!!!

That is sweet Michael!

Great reflection on the nose cone in the first shot and indeed the lighting is very nice.
But hopefully you're not flying over Germany in that last shot ... you're lit up like a Christmastree ;D 8-)

I think 4 is the best.  Always has been a great Plane.   Love all of them- But 4 is the best.  Also great lighting in the last.

Harold,

I am ferrying the plane from Portland to Vancouver. LOL

Below 10,000 ft which means I have to run with everything lit up by US law.
