Wow!

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

I Love Simviation.

Is a fantastic terrific shot Cheesy

But Isn't the eagle is backwards at that altitude ,while is descending on the tranquilly sea? or maybe you took the spinning of the module to stop and decend Roll Eyes

Thanks for all the comments so far for such a little time posted Grin

but alrot the LM is the correct way up for that altitude. The pic i found was taken from a CSM during one of the apollo mission i forget which one but one of them.

the only thing about space shots i hate its trying to convey direction within the shots i find that to be the hardest thing
