15FPS, I bet that you will end up having better frames, with that photo-real, even though there's no autogen etc. Still really great, wonder how big the file size would be.

he he he he

Now you guys get to see what FSX can really do

I was wondering when something like this was going to show up.

With DX10 the possibilities of flying a 35mm visual quality simulation over your own house are very real

Better save those pennies!

It streams it of the internet so it'll be a small download.

First click on any image to make it a little bigger. Now, if you look at the top-left corner of the englarged shot, you'll see a button that says "all sizes". Click on that to enlarge the shot even more to get the best detail out of the shot. For your information, the red letters on the top-left corner of each shot is that of which shows when you hit shift+z.
