Thanks for looking.

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

Great place to be, 'specially this morning with El Nino giving Washington yet another winter hose down. But, after looking elsewhere, not so bad. That some kind of Grumman?

THIS IS NOT A PANAM CLIPPER

It is Aeroplane Heaven's Grumman F3F-2. Don't know why, but it was blurred like that in the sim.

Patchz,

Everything looks really blurry in this shot. I'm wondering why you posted it? You usually post great images. Undecided

Also, it looks like you desperately need mesh for Oahu, the mountains on that shot look at least half the size of the real deal. Here's some Hawaii mesh for FSX.

For FS2004, try mesh from "LCSims" at the Sim-Outhouse, or grab something from here:

Just hoping to make your Hawaii experience better.

The reason for the look of the mountains is that I zoomed out with the (-) key and then zoomed in on the aircraft with F1 View to get more background in the shot.
