Great looking shots!

Were you able to find a way to pause the game, or were you just moving the camera around whilst flying?

Shots look good BrandonF...

The only way to pause the game is to hit Escape which brings up a menu.

Looking fine, like how the scratches on the windshield catch the sunlight

Great looking shots!

Were you able to find a way to pause the game, or were you just moving the camera around whilst flying?

All the shots were taken without pausing. Sadly, the only pause is hitting escape to bring up the options menu. I did find a way to enable a new camera view called "Screenshot View." This lets you slide/pan/tilt the view around in the exterior view. (using the hat switch on the joystick, as well as clicking and holding the scroll wheel button on your mouse for sliding the camera)

To enable the new camera, do the following:

1. Go to C:\Users\"Your account username"\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Flight
2. Open the Cameras.cfg file in notepad.
3. Scroll down to [CameraDefinition.013]
4. Near the bottom of the [CameraDefinition.013] entry, you will see "CycleHidden=Yes." On the left side of the word cycle, add two forward slashes. ( // )

It should look like this when you are done:

[CameraDefinition.013]
Title = $Screenshot View
Guid = {D225B9D0-95CB-4278-9A9D-ED4545743269}

Well done brandon! And modding already as well! Shame you need to put up a disclaimer just to post screenshots...
