Nice, though I don't think Continental ever owned MD-11s? At least not in the "Meatball" scheme.

With your setup, you could be getting much better shots than you are now.  It may be how and what you're compressing them with, but I also think your sliders aren't set high enough for your machine.

In FS, fly over a fairly well-populated area (like any city in California, US) and press Ctrl+Z twice.  It should display your framerate in the upper-left corner in red.  If the framerate is higher than 25, move things like the weather sliders and others up until the framerates drop below 25.  The reason for this is the human eye can't differentiate between framerates of 25 and framerates of 30 or 40.  You tell a little, but it isn't something that will affect your flying.

Maybe not, but they had DC-10s in the Meatball scheme  http://www.airliners.net/open.file/1161324/M/

They even had an Airbus at one point in the Meatball scheme!

a1 I'm sorry, but you really need to turn on that anti aliasing... And as Locke said you have the potential to turn some sliders up... for now... the plane just looks 2D...  :-/

the sliders are up and anti aliasing is on. i don't think i have a video card.

You don't have a video card?!!? OK. There is one time in every persons life. Where they should spoil themselves. Get something like an Nvidia 6800 or above.
