I finally downloaded IrfanView (thanks Bully) and think it's now time to post a few again.

I mainly fly around for fun, but right now I have been playing with some new toys. They had Carrier Operations and Fighter Pilot at the local shop, I couldn't resist... OK, but first off, I took a short flight from Evenes to Alta last night (the same flight I requested a few days ago) however I used the default LearJet

Taking off




Turning towards my first VOR


Approach


Touchdown


Ok and here are some of the new stuff, can't land them yet! nor take-off from the carrier, actually fell into the water!!!!

Dreamer, them shots are just totally amazing!

You must have a bloody good graphics card!

Look out in a few moments on my thread... lil something you might like!

Chris

Chris,
Thank you, very kind of you. I spent a lot of time listening to all the advice you all gave regarding resizing, sharpening and saving. I also have to crop because my screen is a widescreen... it takes time

I know, I have been waiting for you to post, I might have to wait until tomorrow to see them... got to be at work, early and bright

Dreamer!

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice !!!!!!

I love the cat-shot screenie.

Bernd

Nice shots!!!!

Quoting Dreamer (Thread starter): Ok and here are some of the new stuff, can't land them yet! nor take-off from the carrier, actually fell into the water!!!!

You must make a static take off (100% throttle, with parking breaks, release parking breaks once you reach WEEPER 3) this will give you the enough time to take of.

Played a little with E2-C Hawkeye on USS George Washington CVN73, was able to catapult off and go for a short spin, on my return toward an attempted landing I came in too high and too fast...











No one else like military aircrafts?

I doooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And I was on the E-2 in 1999 while on the USS John F. Kennedy...!!!!
Oh...I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Keep on flying dreamer!!!!!


Bernd

I love military stuff, too! Particularly the good ol' C-130E, such as I worked on whilst stationed at Pope AFB in North Carolina.
I second Bernd's words: Keep 'em coming!!

-Gavin

Those E-2C shots are awesome! I really like the overhead of the aircraft and the carrier!! I mean I REALLY liked that one....

Can't wait to see you post some more screenshots!


Thanks in advance,

Phil....

Thanks PapaN &Bully, I'm glad you like it, I think it is cool too. I haven't done any flights lately, but when I do, I will post.

Yes...pleaaaaase!!!!!

When you land on that baby...remember me as you pass the LSO platform before touchdown...that's were I spent many hours while aboard the J.F. Kennedy in 1999...!!!

Godspeed

You lucky dog, you! I always wanted to visit a carrier, but never had the chanse during my time in the service

Quoting Bully707 (Reply 11): When you land on that baby

still working on that

Ohhhh yes!!! What a blast that was...I was with VAW123 "Screetops" as a liason officer for the "ComptuEx" in 99...I flew to Puerto Rico...got flown to St. Maarten on a C-12 and from the harbour took the boat to the Kennedy!!!

What a sight...we set sail to St.Croix and participated in the excercise...
While on board I "mounted" every a/c there...and got a flight in the E-2 and HH-60...or was it a SH-60 ???
The return trip was with the COD back to PR.

Bully

Sure you can roll a DC-9, I tried first with the LearJet (my fav plane to toy with) with great success, FS is set for "Detect crashes and damage" and "aircraft stress causes damage" hmmmm....  















I know, I know, it is just for fun

Awesome stuff, Dreamer!
Shades of that 707 barrel roll!!
Keep up the good work!

-Gavin

Whoooahhh!!!
Nicely excecuted roll...!!!

Well done!!!

Bully

Thanks guys, very glad you liked it!!  

I read posts in the site-related, and I guess we need to take a break from this.

I still think the best idea is to have a topic of the month (like undercarriage, or night flighth, or scenery, or approaches and so on, and we only get to post ONE shot each in the same thread, and it will all be different views on the same thing. After all we all have very different approaches to screenies, it would be great fun to see, and to create.

-keep dreaming!

I agree about having a theme. Maybe weekly instead of monthly though.

Quoting PapaNovember (Reply 18): I agree about having a theme. Maybe weekly instead of monthly though.

PapaN I think we are the only ones who think that's a good idea.

I was out on a flight (a real one, not FS) yesterday and fell in love with BAe 146, so I downloaded one a 200 QT, and I just call her my cutie  

Since I am in a romantic mood these days I decided for a romantic flight. Seems like the Norwegian airforces C-130 have too many cracks in them, they came to me and asked for a haul of some missil heads from Tromso to Andoya 

Leaving Tromso behind


Tromso area


Turning my first vor


Such a beautiful evening! perfect flight, my co-pilot was handsome...


Visual approach, no ILS, 5 seconds after this shot I stalled... that's what you get for flirting while flying  

OH...

MY...

GOD..!

Dreamer!

As you know we see a lot of great shots in these screenshot threads, but I have to say that these 5 little cuties have to be the best I have seen!

Each one of them captures the moment perfectly, without doubt.

I tell thee... if there was a screenshot competition running at the moment, they would undoubtedly win by a million miles!

Fantastic stuff.

Chris

P.S. So who's this handsome co-pilot of yours huh?!   

Thank you Chris, words like that coming from you is like getting a   

I think you have a sweet spot for the cutie.

Quoting N754AN (Reply 20): P.S. So who's this handsome co-pilot of yours huh?!

Wouldn't you want to know....
Don't you know, real ladies don't kiss and tell!!  

Quoting Dreamer (Reply 21): I think you have a sweet spot for the cutie.

Oh a sweet spot now is it?? It was a.. something else spot earlier!

  

My plan was to show off my new Concorde from Phoenix, but....too complicated...... still.....

Time to post a flight I had LHR to CDG, early morning in yet the BAe 146-200 QT dressed up as a SAS passenger plane (yeah, right)   

First time ever on LHR, it was so amazing I forgot to take screenies...    thanks to Chris for airport scenery

Leaving England behind

Crossing the country side


Approach to Paris CDG

Quoting N754AN (Reply 24): absofriggingcool!!

You stole my word!!!

Morn !!!

GRRRREEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAATTTT !!!!!!!!
Dreamer...I love you...r screenshots!!!!!!!

Godspeed

Bernd

Wow very nice shots! Keep it up!  
I love carrier ops. What scenery do you use for aircraft-carriers? I have the Waikato scenery, but this looks different.

Quoting Bully707 (Reply 26): Dreamer...I love you...

Guten tag Bernd!  what can I say? Vielen dank, und Ich liebe......

Quoting Keta (Reply 27): at scenery do you use for aircraft-carriers?

Hi there , thank you!
I use Abacus Carrier Operations, it has 19 carriers in but you have to search for them under add-on scenery, otherwise it is George Washington in 4 places. My package says it has Waikato, but haven't tried it yet.

Once a dreamer, always one

Is that the famous Viking Dreamer?????

  

Bernd

It was gray and thunder in Moscow today, but it didn't stop me from flying the beautiful beast Antonov 225. Ah, some like it big!!

lightning everywhere


it was rather windy and it quickly cleared up

She was hard to get airborn, had to reduce fuel, unfortunately I ran out before landing......  

Great pictures D,

What a 'phunny' looking aircraft!!

Good stuff 

Chris   

Dreamer,

The shots of the An225 are superb! Would you mind sharing the filename and where you got it from? Did it have a panel? I've always wanted to fly that plane on FS.

Keep up your shots, I always love to take a look at them!

Stefano   

Hello Stefano, good to see you back, exams go well?

Quoting Komododx (Reply 33): Would you mind sharing the filename and where you got it from?

Sure, I got her off avsim an225.zip it doesn't include a panel, but uses default 747, however they recommend getting a panel for the antonov 124, called antonov-124.zip also avsim. I haven't tried that, yet.... let me know and post a panel shot!!! 

Wonderful shots of a beautyful bird!!!!
  

Dreamer...just wonderful!!!!!


Bernd

She is passing 3000 feet over me at FL330, PLEASE CLICK FOR FULL SIZE!

LOL dreamer you should listen to your TCAS advise  maybe they didn't say anything but I think they should have!
This afternoon I made a flight in a CRJ700 from denver to washington and I was just sitting around watchin' birds and stuff and suddenly mr TCAS was there
I get warnings lots and lots of times so I thought pffft whatever stupid TCAS but the f*cker kept on screaming climb climb, climb now, climb climb and so on you know   so I turned my head back to my screen and just at that very moment there was that plane just in front of me JUST A FEW METERS FROM MY ROOF!!! He was gone within that second! hey I swear ya, that kinda stuff makes FS less boring! I never had that before but it was really thrilling what an experience
I think I'll never ignore my tcas again 
anyway

hey I like y'r screens, very special sights, whole difference with others!
keep it up
and watch your head!
(and your tcas)

  

laters!

Larezz,

It's a good thing you didn't climb then, huh?


Phil...


p.s. Those are great shots Dreamer!

Quoting Larezz (Reply 37): LOL dreamer you should listen to your TCAS advise

You know the really funny part was that ATC told me to alter course right after she passed by  what can I say, too late too little

Quoting Larezz (Reply 37): hey I like y'r screens, very special sights, whole difference with others!

Quoting PapaNovember (Reply 38): p.s. Those are great shots Dreamer!

Thank you both!
