Looks like fun.  Grin

........my grab clip save won't allow me to save my 1600x1200 images and due to that fact, it brings in a moire effect when it saves them down to 1024x768......makes my shots look amateur-ish....we will be getting together again to get this stunt right and hopefully by that time I will have a better screenshot saver......

Did you guys never try MW's MultiGrab? http://www.mnwright.btinternet.co.uk/index.htm
It might be posted in his beta files section but Martin's beta stuff is usually better quality than most commercial programs.

OK you two.....you really should get some help...I mean...honestly!  Shocked  Cheesy Cheesy Wink

I have a challenge for you, how about Ken flies upright, with Ozzy inverted directly above him, while I between you coming from the opposite direction, all under the bridge? Do you think that is even possible?  ???

I'd love to try that!

I'd like to see that!  Grin

its feasible Ric. The thing Ken and I are doing is perfecting this stunt with 747s. That makes it v.v.hard as timing is everything, and these things aren't Extra 300s!!!!
If you could workout the timing, and practiced a lot it would be possible I think though.
With the GG its possible to get 2 jumbos through stacked, but only just. The lower pilot has to nearly be hitting the water, and the upper has to fly a layer of paint away.... But hey if it was easy everyone would be doing it Grin Grin Grin

Alright Mr Sarcasm.... I can take a hint. I know these arent the greatest shots, but - "I ain't skeered". 

Heres an L1011
...

And a DC-10 using the rudder to its fullest potential  Grin
...

I tried with the B-52, but it prefers swimming to flying upside down.

Well BDS, it looks like you have one part of the formation down......most of us have done that part already.............now all you need is a willing partner to join you in this stunt online ................takes a "team" to do some formation flyin.........

One more thing....you have your captions backwards....the top one is the DC-10 and the bottom one is the L-1011......... Roll Eyes

Check this thread out, I really have done things no-one else has.... http://www.simviation.com/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=fs2002;action=display;num=...

But that is probably because most people around here are saner than me Grin
Enjoy.

Seems to me like a run over Berlin in 1945 would have let us see less flak than we are seeing now Mark, but in all honesty, I feel that I am keeping quite sane and you can have all the credit for toe-ing the line.........I am only the eye-witness photog, and have nothing to do with acting crazy.......TRUST ME !  Wink

why don't you get someone else to take a few pictures while you two fly? It might make things a little easier on you. I can makethem into splashscreens as well if you want (I have a program called Snapshot that automatically captures the pictures as 800x600 which is the perfect size for splashscreens)
The hard bit is catching me online but im on for most of the weekend

OH yeh, now this would make three A/C flying under the bridge at one time......all we need is a good cameraman then....or Camerawoman......

OH yeh, we do have one more small prob....Ozzy and I have to make do with our 9 hr time difference, so its really a case of either someone staying up late or someone getting up pretty early in the morning.........
