Some rarely seen Moscowian scenery. Thanks for the tour Ivan. I wonder what the t.v. channel selection is like in Moscow. ......Clipper

Nice shots, I've got that scenery too, it's fun to fly around the Russian capital...and a great place to visit in reality too, so much cool architecture, churches, the metro is awesome...I've been in that Tupolev at VDNKh, my wife was shocked when she found it the same inside as the Czech Airlines Tupolev we'd flown in (her first ever flight) but displayed there as a museum piece... There's a Vostok spacecraft there too, and the 'Russian Harrier' VTOL jet, can't remember the name, some Yak or other... shame they've let the whole area turn into a cheap marketplace for textiles, they should be proud of their achievements even if they were under a previous regime... it's not like that much has changed anyway...

I just picked one that would look nice in combination with the scenery

Yep, thanks, that's the one. I knew some criminal was involved... I was thinking Arsonist or perhaps Pickpocket..... The Harrier looks better... and was a tad more successful
