Well ironically I downloaded this big bird the same day "Slimcooper's" thread was posted! I could not help but post some of my own shots!
Sorry Slim!   Grin

A special thanks again to Ramsa for working me through my Antialising problems. It was well worth the hours spent! Thank You Michael!

Also a very special "Thank You" to Roy Chaffin for giving the Sim Community this beautiful aircraft for free!! I am sure there were countless hours spent. Thanks Roy!

Took these shots last month  of the beautiful B-25 at New York's JFK. It was "Fleet Week" here in the harbor off  New York City. She is scheduled to do a "Fly-bye" around Manhattan.

Cleared for take off, it is full throttle for this ol' bird!

...


As she races down the runway, all is go for rotation!

...


Up, up and away she flies with New York's JFK below her belly.

...


As she clears the traffic pattern, it is a short flight over Long Island to New York City.

...


She starts her turn towards New York City as the sun begins to set!

...


To see her meet up with "Lady Liberty", click on Part 2 below!!

Beautiful shots Fly.

What are your system specs and what framerate do you get with graphis like this?

Great shots

But, what about the average,
simer? It would take 5 or 6
hours to down load the thing
and then my pooter wouldn't
fly it. I downloaded a little
Ulturalite to day with a 9.6
meg texture. double the
Typhon texture, and all it does
is lock up, with the textures out
it works fine. Do I need to take up
knitting and use the computor to
keep the door open!!!

Hey X,  if you really want to get your system up to speed, Contact Ramsa. Believe me, my PC is 2 years old and I still really need a good video card. He will work wonders!!

My computor is a home brew, made from
stuff out of my brother-inlaws accounting
firms back room, no slot for v-card, as far
as i can tell it has on card at all, the only
thing i have purchased is a 22" monitor
and a M$ joy stick, you've seen some of
my shots, For what I have to work with
I'm quite proud of some of them.

Thanks for the positive reply Dave,
after rereading my post it didn't sound
like I ment for it to. It was not a neg'
reply, just a statement!!

Thanks agin for the +reply
and keep the "shots" afly'n

"0"slots

only aic ? that may not be the right term,
but there only 5 slots on the board,
2 for rom and 3 others, one for modem
one for usb adapter and one for network card

This stuff is "old" like wooden parts Tongue Tongue
I bought a new computor and fought with
it for 3 weeks and took it back to Walmart,
none of my add on planes would show up!
and with the security turned down to mim,
It still removed the bitmap from the zip files!!

Life is good

Stormy;

I guess, I'm no pooter person ???

The slots where the modem and usb are??

I think there maybe some JohnDeere stuff
in there too Tongue Tongue

This thing has been bad hacked twice and
I did a reinstall of ME with "first install disc"
What ever that is, the computor shop said
"that won't work" but after fifty plus times
It finaly gave up and installed!!!

Stormy;

I spent $1100.00 on a new pooter,
Just the tower,no KB, Mouse, anything,
and this old dog, but for not liking any plane
over 12m out did it 50 to one, FPS, and all
and the new one took 15 minutes to boot
up every time you shut it down!!
Are my screen shots that bad Undecided?
