Keeping our waters safe - But not for much longer

One Beautiful Aircraft...well done on the set...

Just a thought...
-Pausing the simulated flight before taking the shot helps
-Hit the Alt Key and remove the top menu bar (top Port/Left side)
-Unpause and take the screenshot
-That is how I was taught by some of the Screenshot Simulated Flight Masters here a few years back...

Of course I am a SLOW LEARNER and a TERRIBLE SCREENSHOT TAKER so I spent a lot of time getting covered in Marmalade by the MODS in the Simviation Dungeon...

LOL - yeah i should really take the menu bar off when snapping
I assume pausing will let scenery catch up if lagging behind - like on my 1980's Texas Instrument machine
Compares to some of the other screens - i think mine are adequate, but i do like to try and take a good pic.

To be perfect, yeah take the menu bar off. Nevertheless great pictures and just remember none of us are perfect.

nice shots, but to call it a beautiful aircraft....

Yes Jan...I even call "Old Stringbags" the Fairey Swordfish a beautiful aeroplane...Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...

Actually it was developed from the DH Comet IV which was a truly beautiful 'plane. The Nimrod never was built as such, they just added bits on and I called it a pregnant comet, cuz that's what it looks like. To me a pregnant woman is beautiful too.
