Its been awhile sence I last posted screenies but I have been flying.  I last left off in Fort Wayne, Indiana.  Sence then I flew to Cincinnati, Ohio connected to Memphis, Tennessee both on Delta CRJ-200's.  From Memphis I flew to Houston, Texas on a Continental ERJ-145.  (there are shots from these flights but i may post a few later)  Which brings me to this post.  I continued south a few hundred miles to Mexico City.

I think this is one of my favorite shots I have ever taken...Angle and moment wise ;)  Just rotating from 15L.

Turning southwards into the gulf.

Cruising along with about 300 miles to go.

Just begging our decent.

Cleared to land.

At last we have arrived and ready to unload.  Most likely I will be returning to Houston soon and from there I plan to head for Sao Paulo, Brazil 8)

First flight in a long time done in an aircraft that is not a modified AI model  ;D

Thanks :)

I'm starting to take a liking to the 737's and a few other small jets.  Especialy sence I have not had time for the long hauls.  

Flying with the FTG VAs gives me access to most of the world.  Just waiting on the VARIG section to open up so i can get around South America better.  They have had a "coming soon" mark on it forever :P

But I'm now creeping away from using all modified AI models. Sence I stay in the cocpit other then for screenies I decided to broaden my hanger to aircraft that get at least 15 FPS when in spot view. ;)  So there may be a 747 or 2 popping up in my shots later on :P
