Whoa!

On the other hand, wonder how man rattlesnakes and scorpions are down there? Roll Eyes

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

The Tile Proxy scenery couldn't look any more real. I'm going to have to give it a try and see if my computer will run it. Nice set of shots. Smiley

Just happened to be good SATELITE coverage of this area. Bob feel free to PM me for any Tile Proxy advice. I'll do my best. Honestly to get it started I just followed the tutorial suggestions, then added my own tweaks over time, which I'll be glad to share with you and anyone who would like.

Holy crap

I have never seen more realistic shots Greg Shocked

"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"
