Okay Daube I think I like your tutoring.   ;)
When I get there will buy you several drinks.

Does this look better and any other suggestions and advice?
Saw your post again in this Forum..."Just One".

Never used CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER before and I like that technique and it does exactly what you said it would.

Looking forward to your and everyone's advice and comments.

Thanks... :)

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

In FSX, when using an "Aircraft" or "Virtual Cockpit" view, you can use any combination of CTRL and/or SHIFT with ENTER or BACKSPACE to change the angle of view.

Nice shot!

Thanks Stephane "Daube"... :)

I see what you mean in shot #2 and I am starting to experiment a little more with moving the aircraft about.

I like to have a "Theme" in mind when I take a shot.  I first plan a flight from point A to point B unless I stay in the circuit doing approaches.
I think by having a theme in mind helps to plan a flight so that is how I do it.

A lot of young aviators stay clear of clouds and that is a good idea at times and in certain locations.
But to really enjoy flying one needs to fly in all kinds of weather, seasons and times.
Popping in and out of clouds in a small bugsmasher can be fun, I let Air Traffic Control know by phone then radio where I am and that I am out doing photo shoots and will be working this area. 
I think they know dam well what I am up to but they keep the heavy metal and the other spam cans away or at least advise me of traffic.   :)

So flying in and out of puffy wuffies was my actual theme in the two shots.  The pictures were taken from 8000ft and perhaps I should have used a bank shot or something along that line.
