The shots are good but you will need to upload to the SimV server ;)

A couple of things... these shots would be much better if it weren't for the dreaded 'jaggies' - those jagged 'step-stair' lines at the edges of the plane, in case you don't know. Depending on which graphics card you have, this can sometimes be solved by going into your graphics card interface, and finding a feature called 'anti-aliasing' - it smoothes out edges and gives a better overall look to your shots.
Something else is those clouds - I would have turned up the cloud detail and weather detail settings before taking these shots.
Overall, a nice idea, quite well done, but follow my advice and your shots should start looking even better.
Hope this helps.

Also, when uploading to SimV, make sure that your shots are under 100KB. The first is over 500... :-/

Cool Shots, also when uploading please can you put them into a JPG format.

What is your graphics card by the way

Guys ... please stop playing this poor guy. These shots are not only terrible but they also break the SimV rules ... and still do after 24 hrs!
Scott, please follow the above advice and you'll be fine next time ... and read the rules!!
