looks like a fake picture of an F-16 pasted onto a real background.  if that were a real aircraft, I would think because it is in a fairly steep climb, you'd see the afterburners or at least the exhaust.

I would have to say that it is Kirk Ollsen's Viper on a real background. Or possibly the background is the 18mb forest, desert, land add on scenery.
In any case michael, it should be in the Graphic Gallery.

The glare on the canopy leads me to believe it might be real. But the I havn't seen what ACOF is capable of...

I have decided its definatly a real picture. Look at the canopy. You can see that the background contours continue through the glass of the canopy. If it was a cut out flightsim model then that would be so would it? :P

I think to the uninitiated it would look real enough.

I would say the lack of heat shimmers coming from the exhaust pretty much gives it away. :P

Yep, a FS plane on a real background I think. I may be, and probably am, completely wrong, but who cares?
