Around this time last year I was on holiday in the Coromandel and saw the NZ Warbirds' Havard display team performing in formation above Tairua Harbour. After spending the last few days learning the tricks and techniques of the recorder module's text converter tool- I thought I'd put what I've learnt into a series of screenshots for your enjoyment ^_^

Too bad you can't hear the grunty rumble of the engines included with the Alphasim model, spot on real life recordings that take me back to last summer, sitting at the edge of the runway at Paunui watching the beasts depart. Below are eight images, 825kb in file size:

















Cheers.

How do you make screenshots like that? Is there some special tool you have that you can fly all those aircraft at once or something to take the screenshots? lol sorry I'm a little bit behind the times in that department :)

'Course nothing stops you from flying the formation as AI, and making up the fifth man!
Now there's a challenge.
