Now in these last days of Fs2k2. I decided to take a new look at some of my old favorites that inspired me way back at the beginning.

This is Bill Lyons' Defender blimp. It's still today one of my all time favorites.

These shots were all taken on my new machine and I'm very happy with the clarity of these night shots.

These shots make me feel as if all is quiet while the blimp floats skyward, the blimp representing the beginning of flight and now the beginning of FS2004! I don't know what I am saying...it has been a long day, Anyway,
the clarity of these night shots are great. Really like the last one!!

Thanks to all for your replies.

I think we all can say that Fs2k2 has been a fantastic experience for all of us and one of the greatest computer programs that there ever has been.

Very nice shots! Too bad they dont make these stuff in real aviation anymore....  Sad

I saw one about a month ago saying:

"South Florida Supports our troops in Baghdad, may God be with them" And then it would say: "GOODYEAR" In capital and slowly scrolling letters.

I posted some shots of the Defender a while ago, good to see some new ones just the same. Makes me want to drag that blimp out again.
