Good Afternoon all... :)

FSX and Vista
FS Water Configurator
Douglas DC3 aircraft
Dawn just off Larnaca Intl. "LCLK" Cyprus
All Freeware


Yes cockpit instrument lights are on.

Captain there is a big beach ball chasing us.

Just plodding along.

You can see the fabric on the rudder, all controls on the DC3 were fabric covered.

I tried to focus on the aircraft and not so much the surroundings, not sure I accomplished that as much as I would have liked to.  The first shot "cockpit" I am not happy with as I think it was too far away.

Comments and advice most welcome.   :)

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

A bit weird but, the longer I stared at the panel in number one, the better lit the instruments became.

Generally overall nice shots. You asked for advice, so here is a little tip when taking cockpit shots. When there is no pilot available adjust the angle of your shot so all that you see is just the top inch or two of the yoke or stick. It looks more realistic and that you have a pilot on board.
