Picture yourself sitting in the grandstand area...

Nice shot.
One thing that I notice is that the 2 aircraft have the same serial number, but that's just a small thing.

Also, some AA. would make it a lot better

LOL... I was hoping compression would hide the serial numbers... and I turned down a lot of mt graphics card settings to up the frame rates because we where interested only in taking FRAPS footage and, as I'm sure you'll know, FRAPS chews up the FPS on the lower end PC systems...
I don't expect to get selected for the final 8 mate... my friend and I just thought it was a nice picture to enter into a relevant theme...

Best... Si

PS... I've just noticed "RIAT was Kickass" below your Pic on your post...!!! Where you at the 2007 RIAT...? if so... what did you think of it this year...

A good tip is when you are taking screenshots turn up the graphics, it may be slower but the screenshot will be better and you can just revet it afterwards.

Yes I was at RIAT. It was great! My first time aswell.

Dude... I'm more than capable of taking good screenshots when it comes to my FS9... Like I said... I had my card settings lowered for the purpose of capturing video during a LAN meet using the FPS killer FRAPS... I didn't really intend on entering the SimV competition but when I saw that the theme fitted some of the screens I had taken I thought it might be nice to share, what I thought was a reasonably good shoot, with the rest of the comunity... Some of my other shots would blow this one out of the water... I just wouldn't have had the time to try to produce another screen shot to try to win the competition...

Arark... Where's your entry... I don't see yours...!!!!

Anarks post was not meant as a personal insult to you, seems you took it as one though.

I know, I know... thing is Monkey... he's only 15, I'm 34 and he assumes I don't know what I'm doing...

I like your entry by the way... FSX I assume... The Cadilac of the Sky is one of my favourite warbirds... good luck in the comp...  ;)

No, its FS9. I wouldn't let age bother you, at least he isn't some 12-13 year old who cant type in anything but "l33t speak"

Thanks for the comment

Yea... perhaps your right Monkey...  :-X
I'm surprised to learn your shot is taken from FS9... Terrific entry though...

Sorry, I was only trying to give a tip.  ;)
I hadn't read that you had taken it while playing on LAN, sorry about the confusion.  :P

Thats a'rite... no hard feelings... Virtual hand skake n'all...  ;)

I like it

The paint job on the planes looks like something I would see on a honda civic or something, but still a great shot and I like the colors  :)

LOL

YEA... My mate and I took the two tribal hawks up for a cruise... LOL
