Was just browsing the SimV file library and came across this- one you Americans on here will like.

Go easy on me- i'm not a regular SS taker lol.

Full-out VC shot.


Quick shot before takeoff.


Over the mountains- recognisable shape of the X-70.


Neat looking..


.. yet a weird ass plane!

[Tchkinjiu]

That is just one WEIRD ASS plane.  :P Kinda neat though, the pilots have to crawl through the little space to get to the cockpit.

Yep, I got this one  a week or two ago myself.
She's quite a handfull to fly too, ya got to be thinkin way ahead, and the turns are w.....i.......d........e!

Ahh the X-70. Truely weird, but you can see from where a lot of modern aircraft got bits of themselves.....
Dan how are you reducing your picture size? Just you seem to be loosing quite a bit of resolution.

i was using the standard shift + s to size them from 1024 x 768 in psp8.. just it makes them go crappy.

good to know. i was wondering if there was something wrong with your PC.

[d0mokun]

the only thing wrong with my PC is that it runs on windows my friend

[SabreHawk]

Heh, yep.................... :-/

Go get Irfanview.  I know how you probably feel about getting another program for this type of thing, but it is well worth it.  I used PSP for so long to resize my shots, and now I get much better resolution and I don't have to go through as many motions to do it.

[d0mokun]

thanks for the recommendation, I'll pick it up and take a looky.
Will post nice piccies once I got some  ;)

Awsome plane!!! I tried to make one one time, but i did'nt have the skill But that one is TRULY AWSOME

[Rifleman]

As a youngster, this was one of my fav A/C and I never thought I would be able to see one in person......with patience, I lived the dream and actually visited Wright-Patterson and even touched the bird....so although it will never fly again, we do still have one example in full-size 3D, to go and see ...........If you ever get the chance to go and see it, TAKE IT !
