These rejects are not due to patchz fantastic Beaver X repaint...I'll probably use this particular plane and paint for my entry some way or another. They are rejected by me because of the high quality entries for the contest but I didn't want to recycle bin them either...vanity knows no bounds!

Rips more than welcome!!!

Le Pew! Cool

I don't know how you intend to improve perfection Greg. Any of those would have a very good chance of winning.

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

First of all thanks for looking and the kind compliment and welcome to Simviation!

I was here at this sight a few months before I ventured throughout the forum and chuck79 invited me to this contest, no prizes, just pride. You should check it out...http://205.252.250.26/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1300672919

The only way I'm associated with Skunkworks is that I'm older than the U-2 spy plane Grin

The first shot was taken at KEDW...
The rest were taken around White Horse mountain in Washington...Scenery is ORBX's 1S2 Darrinton Muni Cool

The only thing perfect about these shots is your repaint for the Beaver L.T. Wink

After yours and some other entries, the bar is set so high, I might need the space shuttle to hit the mark!

Au contraire mon ami, my statement was right on the mark.

Wow Greg.....awesome shots Cool

I like the last one

"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"
