I think it was meant to be a bit of a snub to the Rooshians winkyy.gif

Looks like the Germans at Aerosoft had the last laugh though ... the top left square should always be red. Who says they don't have a sense of humour laugh.gif

Here is another screenshot that shows how much the average standard of pictures has improved recently. A great shot, and the slightly dark shadows on the aircraft are perfect. What makes it even better is the non-standard angle, and the small details like the vanes inside the engine exhaust. Well framed, exposure perfect and interesting features make this a great shot.

Wish that I had taken it!!

smooth landings.

Looks like your gamma may be set a bit dark on your monitor laugh.gif ... the insignia on the tailfin? Or are you winding me up? laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif (everyone does!).

@Splitpin .. I had a few l-o-n-g therapy sessions (as in "aversion therapy" - a la "Clockwork Orange") and have now switched to collecting FSX add-ons.

I see it now, on my wife's monitor. When your gamma goes why are you always the last to know?

Very thoughtless Government and they used that as an excuse for people who did not vote " that what we fought the war for " .... maybe they those political knobs should have looked at the other side of the coin ... 75 squadron was gifted to New Zealand in response to the many who died and the volumes of deeds .... RNZAF should have kept a token Squadron at least for that respect , two 16s on least maybe .
