Awesome Shots Alonso  :o

Which 737 is that?

P.S. If you want a really good EGKK scenery, you should look into UK2000, 'strickly' speaking they are a payware company, but the un-activated product only has a nag-screen (blue cube) in the *middle* of the runway... Other than that it's a fully functioning scenery, it even has active jetways and a fleet of service vehicles that service your aircraft  ;)

Clicky

Hope that helps,

Alex

Thanks for the comments ;)

Alex... just tried it...the scenery looks great, but it hits FPS! :o So maybe I'll stay with default (don't use Gatwick too much after all) ;) Thanks for the advive :)

How do you get your terrain looking so good, particularly in shots 2 and 4? I have all the FS9 settings at max and my terrain doesn't look that good.

LOL...! True, it does munch on frames, but EGKK is the main airport I fly out of so I stick with it  ;)

Thanks, the 737-300 is the one from FFX.. (which is very very light on framerates) ;)

The terrain is from ground environment pro  ;)

I've always wondered why so many of the Speedbirds wear noserings.  it seems that many BA 757s, 737s, and (I think) 320s have the black painted nose ring.  anybody know why?
that said, very nice, crystal clear shots.
