It sure is. I still can't believe how real it looks. It is for FSX SP2 only at this time as far as I know. With your computer specs how come you are not running FSX? Quote "Won't run FSX. Locks up a lot with FS9, too."

Excellent!   I like the stark contrast of the plane. ;)

Very nice shots. :)

Just awesome, beautiful, breathtaking... every other positive adjective!

Did you keep the flaps down on purpose?  :-?

No, I got it from the Nor - Cal Prop Flying Club http://www.freewebs.com/wreckerman/generalaviationplanes.htm , but I just checked and I can't find it now. There are some other aircraft missing from the site that I have that are missing also.

And you are right. The flaps on down on the Maule to keep my flying speed as slow as possible.

ps How is the Christmas calendar coming along?

Well, I'm in the process of creating all the thumbnails and stuff - all the boring stuff ;D

All in all, I got 21 pics, which is great, except it's from 6 members only, which is including myself... So I'm hoping for some shots from people who haven't yet sent me some... :)
