Final approach with a TU-114. This airplane is very, very cool.

From the bombardeer navigator's position. That guy has a brilliant view.

Over the shoulder of the first officer. He doesn't have his hands on the controls, because in soviet russia, airplane flies YOU!!

Image

Gear down!

Image

Just before touchdown...

Image

...and we are safely back to earth again. Thank you for flying Aeroflot.

The beast is asleep.

By the way, if anyone cares, the scenery is Tolmachevo airport. It's worth the download imho.

Brilliant shots.  THat must have been an awesome ridefor the F/E, albeit a tad claustrophobic.

Next time pop the landing lights (on same switchboard as the light switch)... then the lamps in the nose come down

Very nice shots mate! I really like that last one with the nice scenery too!
But I would've liked it better if you'd cropped the big green chunk in the foreground and the same goes for #4.

Wouldn't that be considered editing?

For purposes of the screenshot contest, yes.  For the freeware/payware galleries, you can get away with it ;)

I'm not sure. I use FS9, but I'd expect it to work in FSX as well. You might have to do a manual install.
