as good as this looks the scary thing is that this is what FS 10 will look like on high graphics. But cool edit, and MASSIVE props for not includeing the overused sign.

I love it, incredible! Beautiful combo.

I hope AA doesn't start using the 777, I personally like my 757 jaunts down there occasionally!

Did you actually take the 777 pic at Maho? Hate to be picky, but I will. The wheels look a little too dark and we need those reflections you catch off the AA aircraft! The lighting is absolutely awesome, you did a great job! The shadow could use a tid bit of work, and the side-on angle looks a little funny.

BUT AMAZING JOB!!! (Just needs a few topless women on the beach! Bloody hard to pay attention on approach when those little obstacles are there!)

The reflections I spoke of:

I don't.

Judging by how developed it was in ACOF, it'll prolly be more in FS10

I'm with Andrew, they can't possibly make it that detailed and expect it to sell all that well. The graphics are downright amazing right now, and with the exception of a few very important areas (Maho Beach prolly included) it won't change all that much. I would like to see improved scenery of Maho, and in the individual areas they might do really really amazing scenery down to those rocks we see, but the graphics being on a true realistic level just isn't going to happen, especially not worldwide. It's a sim, it isn't going to look real.

True, but I still think it can be better.

Judging by how they intentionally made TNCM special, I don't doubt it'll be even more realistic next time 'round.

The only thing i reckon FS10 will have to make the graphics better...

Is a more realistic lighting system..
Oh and maybe use of 64bit..

True. Even if they don't make it better, I'm sure an independent designer will make somthing.
