How did you make the vapour trail so neat? did you turn using the rudder only? anyway it is very nice!

You know bud I just thought, "huh, he's just nit picking and not enjoying the shots" but then it got me thinking.......
Mt. Everest, on the border of Nepal and Tibet, China, is the world's tallest mountain and highest elevation with a peak at 29,028 feet (8850 meters).
Soooo, Mount Everest stands 29,028 feet tall. From top to bottom, it's taller than any other mountain--whose bottom is the surface of the earth. Here's the catch: If you add what's underneath, then Mount Everest isn't the tallest mountain. The winner then is Mauna Kea, a huge, very tall volcano on the Big Island of Hawaii (called Hawaii). Mauna Kea stretches 13,796 above water and 19,680 underwater, for a total of 33,476! So if you say that it's the whole mountain that counts, then Mauna Kea is the tallest.
Everyone knows that Mount Everest is the tallest mountain in the world, right? Well, if you want to get technical about it, the answer is NO.
Kinda interesting (the second part was only for info). So if Everest is higher than the highest mountain in the Alps (which is Mont Blanc and near Geneva in Switzerland (I believe it's in Switerland, I know it is not far from Geneva)) and I belive that with the standard FS scenery the Vapour trails start at 30,000 ft, these pictures can not be possible in the sim over the Alps if you are about to hit a mountain, unless M$ have made a mistake or............
Food for thought
Still love the pics wolf and am only having fun. It 4.30am and I am looking for excuses not to go to sleep

true, Mount Everest is not the tallest mountain, it's the highest mountain.
As for the tallest, I thought it was mount Mikenley (sp?) in Alaska ??? I've heard that from the base to the top, it's taller then Everest, but it's at a lower elevation so it's not the highest.
