WOW is all I have to say.  I have a lot of reading to do.  I managed to get through a standard start up sequence and eliminate all cautions to at least take her  up and test her out.  Still have A LOT to learn, but I'm loving it so far.

Sitting at North Island NAS waiting for me to start all systems...
...

Heading out to sea for some fun...
...

LOVE the vapor effects...
...

Time to open it up and see what she can do...
...

Can't wait to really get into the systems and procedures.   Cool

Thanks for looking!

Great shots........I see you talked your "accountant" into a new purchase Wink

Is it everything you hoped it would be?


Chuck

EDIT:
Two things you need now:

AI Carriers2

FS Water Configurator


AI Carriers lets you place a high detail carrier wherever you want during flight.....FSWC is a program that totally transforms the water in FSX......many different options and fully customizable 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"

Haha, yes Grin

It's way more than I thought it'd be, a whole new animal really but in a good way.  I'm about to upload some of the pictures of a different configuration and on the ground with all the panels/radome open.  Great detail, they did a nice job with the model.

I have AI Carriers but didn't really try it out with the Superbug yet, but thanks for reminding me about the water configurator!  I actually just got my inspector settings to work now without any artifacts so I have better visuals too.

Wow. Nice shots!! Cool You really do the Superbug justice. Can't wait for the tacpack to come out Wink
 

Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.
