High quality version
Photo by Carlos E. Santa Maria

Rules:


1. You may edit the screenshot.
2. Payware is allowed.
3. Be serious! Don't enter a shot that isn't even close.
4. You may either post a link in this thread to your picture, or use img insert code. Remember, you must upload your shot to SimV.

This contest will last from February 7 to February 25. Then a poll will be set up for the shots submitted.

Well, good luck to all!

The reason I didn't include that was to make it harder. It is up to YOU to figure out the best place. But it doesn't matter now.  Cheesy

Awesome!!!

Can't wait to give this a whack!

And just search the SimV website for Southwest, I'm sure you'll find something.

Nice idea, but a reccomendation would be to link the picture back to the photo on airliners.....just so the photographer gets a bit more credit for his photo (and can see all our beautiful shots Tongue) and to get one in higher quality Smiley

Not the best imitation, but I think it's ok.

That long lens makes it look like pretty creative separation by the tower guy but I suppose the centerlines are far enough apart for parallel ops.

Yes, the runways are farther apart than the photo shows.

Also, one is taking off and one is landing.
