Yesterday I took my camera and went planespotting at the famaous airport TNCM in ST. Maarten Tongue

An approaching Air France A340....

Seconds before touchdown. Can you read the warning? Tongue

KLM 744 seen from a hotel terrace....

I could smell the cerosine as this bird flew by...

I hope you enjoyed them!! Grin

Peter,...fix this, reload or something. I was going to say that for anybody who was keeping up on "Screenshot Contest", The pictures that Peter had up here were default FS2004 and I thought they were really, really good. I would have voted for one of them!!!
So, you see, it does not matter what you have, a simple shot can be Most impressive!!! You really don't need payware or the best machine out there!!!

NOW PETE, FIX THIS SO EVERYBOBY KNOWS WE ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT THOSE SIMULATORS IN SHOTS 1 AND 2....LOL!! Grin

If you have not been watching, I think the Screenshot contest is running out of fuel due to trying to make....TO MANY RULES...
Now it looks like non of us will be playing Sad

I think with FS2004, the playing field would have be "more even" due to all the new "Eye Candy" and things we have not yet discovered. Now even old scenarios may be used bcause of this new envirement!

Peter, they are not FS2004 pics....?
I thought they were...
What scenery is that, I know it is St. Maarten, but I saw Ricbarkers shots of same airport with the "warning" sign and he said it was FS2004!
I am confused. Anyway, FS2002, FS2004, they are still great shots!

GLAD YOU GOT YOUR PICS BACK !!!!
