Congrats on the new card.

I called it "Disaster Area", after the Plutonium rock band from The Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy

Hehe, nice to see you finally have some serios hardware for your flights and screenshots. That must be quite a change, isn't it ? I bet you spend your time visiting all the places you already knew before, just for the pleasure to compare the graphic differences ;)

You betcha!  It's like getting two new FS games.  That and I installed the West Coast and Eastern 10 meter mesh, too, so that even changed the terrain.  It alos goes without saying that the airraft look a lot neater too, with much reduced "Jaggies".

Happy cat!!
