Good luck to all the finalists. Well I've narrowed it down to numbers 6,8,9,and 10. Going to have to think about it awhile longer. I like all these older aircraft. It would have been nice to see a Beechcraft D18 in there. Wink

Maybe sometime in the future.

I am thinking about posting a list of new Vista tweaks I have discovered. Those should elevate the MSFS experience by quite a bit like my XP list does

now, if I just had some inspiration (votes) to post it and a complete install FAQ,.... and a new XP list

LOL

You will know when I am serious.. that was a joke

Even if I won, I would donate the prize to someone who is less fortunate than me and can not afford to buy payware.

The quality of screenshots here is stunning! If you look on pretty much any other flight sim forum you will find that most images are not as good as the worst ones on here (not just in the contest, in the whole forum). Well done everyone!

I think the prize is shared by both...Meaning each gets a copy...Last I checked, there was no concept of a tie breaker...I might be wrong though... Embarrassed

It isn't a tie any longer.
And I am about to watch a movie with my wife so I most likely won't get around to posting the winner for a couple of hours! Wink
