The screenshot is the Marines' AH-1W Super Cobra engaging an enemy target.
The aircraft is from a SimV downlaod of the Super Cobra Package.
Scenery is FSX default.
Thanks for looking.

Cheers, Mike

Cool edit Cool Cool Cool
 

"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"

Come on now Mike, fess up. You fiddled with a photo a bit and said it was a FS edit. Roll Eyes
Dang that is good.  Shocked

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

Thanks guys for the kind comments.
I have attached the original screenshot prior to my edit.
It helps to have a nice model to start the edit work.
Again, hats off to Alphasim for providing this ex-payware to SimV.
My scenery was FSX default, Al Taji, Iraq.
I used GIMP and Paint.Net, both freeware. I stop using Photoshop, the mentioned editors are simpler to use and just as powerful. I used over (25) filters on the Cobra edit.

Cheers, Mike Wink
