WINNERS, WINNERS, WINNERS

Judge BigTruck hath spoken! and his choices are :

Mictheslik!

I love the atmosphere of this shot, the eerie coloring of the sky and clouds are a perfect match for the color of the plane. The camera angle completes the shot with some terrific ground textures and of course, the required sports stadium making a subtle appearance Cool

Cool

Well done Mic!

CONGRATULATIONS Mic!!!!

In second place, firemonte007

Terrific livery on the plane, nice lighting (looks very accurate to the typical "Windy City" sky) and it's complimented by a nicely detailed Chicago skyline, this shot just screams DA BEARS!!!

In third, JSpahn

A terrific show of how fast these pilots go through those pylons. I like the angle you captured the plane at just before banking through the checkpoint.

Honorable mention - ManuelL -

I love the originality of this shot, a terrific idea for this theme!!

Well done everyone, you all made this a very hard decision for me to make, thanks for the challenge!!

BigTruck"

Nice work on a great comp!

Cheers

ShaneG

Great looking shot there Mic! I had tried to install the German world cup stadiums into FSX with no luck. Its for FS9, and has an auto installer that has to be pointed to your FS9 directory. Was worth a try... looks great!
