I broke the tie by voting for third screenshot Thank you, Sir - the old lady it is!! :thumbup: ... here's the entry: Many thanks to all that commented and voted. That was fun!!! Adam.

Yum .... :wub:

Amazing .... :rockon: :bow:

Lyndiman ortho scenery for NZ is free, the better overlays for the ortho are also free, $15 for the volumetric clouds in the last two screens, all airports in NZ have been tarted up for free.... ASN is available for XP... superior helicopter flight model, I have no need for MSFS

Fine shots indeed! Looks like P3D to me - but I'm often wrong!

there's more of course, these are the non-NZ paints available: jk7991 by JanKees Blom , on Flickr jk7984 by JanKees Blom , on Flickr jk7974 by JanKees Blom , on Flickr jk7771 by JanKees Blom , on Flickr jk7832 by JanKees Blom , on Flickr jk7759 by JanKees Blom , on Flickr jk7735 by JanKees Blom , on Flickr JK0002 by JanKees Blom , on Flickr jk7855 by JanKees Blom , on Flickr jk7819 by JanKees Blom , on Flickr jk7849 by JanKees Blom , on Flickr

Cheers Mike ... and that search radar cant be retracted without lowering the landing gear.... Interesting - obviously IRL there would be interlocking to prevent conflicting movement, but that would hardly be done by shared hydraulics. What if they had to ditch, or belly-land? Mebbe the modellers had watched 'Memphis Belle' too much? :cheers:

looks good in black too I think jk8140 by JanKees Blom , on Flickr jk8141 by JanKees Blom , on Flickr jk8133 by JanKees Blom , on Flickr Clip_89 by JanKees Blom , on Flickr jk8149 by JanKees Blom , on Flickr

Many thanks for your hard work (and patience) ... all duly grabbed ... screenshots coming soon!! :)

...can assure you such clear days are not the norm !! :D Cloud base must be generally low there, most days on the AKL-WGTN run depending on direction, you see Left: Ruapehu Right: Taranaki

WOW - they are like real photos !!

... the camouflage colours are too similar for my taste (=I can't tell them apart), and I don't like the totally different textures of the ailerons, so waiting for a paintkit... Yes - the colouring does seem wrong, now you mention it. Hopefully a paintkit will help there. The ailerons on the MkI were fabric (as opposed to metal) but I think reflectivity is a little overdone so the difference is way too obvious. I get the impression the release was rushed - possibly to hit Battle of Britain week - as there are a few simple errors (axis mappings reversed etc.) that should have been spotted and...

Thank you Dani , long time no see , I hope you are well.

Great work Dash, and STR1KEStudioz. I'm loving those refections in the last screen.

:hesaid: Holy cow!!

The visual gap between flight simulation and reality is closing fast. Some of those screenshots are almost indistinguishable between the two .
