[color=#000000] :o Wow Chris! At first glance, I thought it was a photo. At second glance, the 'only' thing that did not look real was the back of the pilot's neck. Excellent shot.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

That is a great shot.  I love the fact that you can change the patches on the pilots shoulders with new texture files.  That's a cool little feature on Kirk's model.

How do you like the scenery so far?

I haven't had time to check it out thoroughly, but it's really nice from what I seen so far considering MAIW spent 2 years developing it.

It's also nice that I have 4 paints of Kirk's F-16 for Nellis AFB.

Thanks for the nomination, Larry.

If I would have worked on it continuously instead of in bits and pieces, it would not have taken 2+ years to for me to finish.  I'm just glad the scenery made it off my hard drive before something bad happened to it.

Make sure to find the easter egg in the package, I spent a lot of time on that part as well and very few people have even found it so far.   ;)
