I can see the plane tho.
Just not the snow

And some advice on shots in the future: I would take the red text out(as in don't take the screenshot with it there)
This plays a big role in screenshots imo

Then as others said, it is a bit dark, i know it is "extreme" weather, but you don't want the shot "too" dark.
And the red text is a little blurry, you have AA on?

AA? and I dont know how or why the red test turned on...been trying to figure out how to turn it off, and I guess worst case if i need to re take the picture and just make it lighter I could...but yea tis my entery, its landing at night with 0.1Km visibility

oh and look at the plane its self, you should see white "Lines" thats from the weather (snow)...it was hard enough to keep it flying as it was and then snap the picture using a free screen shot program that I stumpled on in the simV utilities area...its called snap shot

Anti Aliasing(or how ever it is spelled) it is in display options. the Red text you have is removed by Default with Shift+Key.
Now note: you cannot enter another shot, or change the shot you entered (rule 6).
