I'm running FSX with Acccelleration on Vista.
Running Real NZ's Wellington, Blenheim, Rotorua and Tauranga scenery.
I didnt know about Deane's Huey, I'd seen his fletcher which is nice.
Would the Huey work in FSX ?

I've never realy had much luck flying helecopters in FSX.
The Just Flight C-130 will be my next purchase I think - might need to upgrade the computer to handle it tho.
Oh well, another exervise comming up, allowances will pay for the upgrade.

A feast of rotors!
I've been noticing rotors this last week or two, (do hope Nije's Seasprite can be made to have a "solid" rotor blur...)
Trev, these and your other snow shot are top rate.
I just love hitting a thread where you scroll up, down, back again, keep finding bits...great lighting.
Thanks for posting.

Really cool pics, that Blackhawk looks pretty mean! I bet a wee bit has changed since I was there in 2002..
