Scenery is default Edwards and I hope it qualifies as an "airport"! I know it has been done to death, so my apollogies!!!

Camera, default outside spot view.

Thanks for the compliment Deano

I revisited the sun mod due to fly2e's fantastic "example" shot. Revised the settings and played around with dawn + seasons. Cool

Thank you gentlemen for the compliments!

Love the dark and damp feel of the hangar, but the reflection on the ch47 for some reason distracts me from the rest of the hangar. Looks like its going to be a stormy/cloudy day outside the hangar, so the ramp lights are on, and there is the bare aluminum '47 gleaming in all of its glory.

just my thoughts and taste, tone it back just a hair on the central craft (the ch47)

overall = 8.95 / 10

Panning left or right got rid of that annoying reflection but then I lost the tower!

Appreciate your comments about 9.28 out of 11 Cheesy

Wonderful shot Greg.

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