That is the most beautifully stunning screenshot I've EVER seen! Shocked

Seriously, you've outdone yourself on these silhouette shots this time.

Great shot Sean. The sky is absolutely gorgeous.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Very nice. I don't know how old you are so you may not know what I'm talking about. But the two knobs/gauges/whatever above the three smaller ones look just like Mooneyes.

FS2004/2002 Martin SP-5B Marlin. This was a twin engined piston powered flying boat entering service in 1951 and serving into late 1960s in service with the United States Navy for naval patrol. It also served in the U.S. Coast Guard and with the French Navy. 285 were produced overall. The Marlin was designed as a gull-winged aircraft to lift the engines and propellers high above the spray.

Thanks Bob. I should have known it is a Martin. I have the PBM-5 Mariner. And as soon as the download finishes, I'll have the Marlin. The Marlin is a much better looking aircraft.

Shane, are you sure I have to choose by Sunday? The more I look at them, the harder it gets. Undecided

From looking at previous contest entries, I had an idea it might be a little difficult to judge at times. I HAD NO IDEA!
I thought I had pretty much decided from the entries so far and would just have to fine tune for later entries. But just like I said before, the more I looked, the harder it got. Right now, I am nowhere close to deciding. But in a way, that is a good thing. It just proves how talented our members are. Cheers!

I used a little tip that Bob70 started I think, I would put all the entries into a folder, and then set them up in a slide show for my screen-saver.

After a while, the winners will separate themselves from the rest. Wink

Don't try to make the decision yet. That only makes it worse. Grin

You're doing a fine job so far.
