Winter's come early at NZQN! I wonder whether that C-130 used "the Sarajevo approach"!

Polishing a Herc can hurt , American Airlines had a problem with to much polishing , as abrasive aluminium is , on aircraft hull its very thin , so don't buff it to much smile.gif

I'm always intrigued as to how differently we see things. Genuine question here - what didn't you like about it? Your shots are always incredible - so your opinion would be valued. I don't think Marty/Splitpin will take it negatively - his screenshots a re always incredible as well ... just what one "artist" can say to another "artist".

Our NZ snow looks like that in Real Life ... honest!!! laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif
