I was playing around with this lovely Convair 580 model and came across these two view points when messing around with camera position. I couldn't decide which is best so I posted them both.

Both shots look good but for me I like the first shot a little better.  I think it shows the aircraft much nicer... Wink
 

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

+1. The expansion joint of the tarmac that runs parallel
to the fuselage gives a sense of depth and the sky looks better IMHO  Smiley  Wink  Cool
 

FSX, we've come a long way baby! Skunk Works is an official alias for Lockheed Martin’s Advanced Development Programs (ADP), formerly called Lockheed Advanced Development Projects. Skunk Works is responsible for a number of famous aircraft designs, including the U-2, the SR-71 Blackbird, the F-117 Nighthawk, and the F-22 Raptor. Its largest current project is the F-35 Lightning II

I also think the first, is the best Wink
 

"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"

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