My grandfather was a Korean War-era fighter pilot, flying the F-86 Sabre for USAF. Although I never got to see him much, this shot reminds me of what he gave to our country and how his actions made him my lifelong idol.

WOW!So real
"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.
Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

That would be a shocker, wouldn't it?
First post on the "V" and he walks away with the prize
Good luck!

I just downloaded this nifty little sky package for FSX, and saw a shot in there that looked awfully familiar.
Thanks for the conversion job, and welcome to the site!
