Thanks again Bruce

, some reason lost the entire content of my 'WHALE' must have been al this whale hunting down here this recent season

, yes they do work well in FSX mind you the Douglas Skywarrior is a little old on it internal side - with Pierre paints it really brightens and details the aircraft .

Unfortunately AI ships in FSX seem to only be allowed a single simple effect. I have tried all sorts of tricks with the Ferries, to no avail.

Nice screenshots Ian - Enterprise is quite a beast. I got to see it from afar in Singapore in 1992 when I was up there on exercise with 5 Sqn, and it dwarfs everything around. A few of us came close to flying out to her, when the Captain of a US Navy Grumman Greyhound supply plane offered us a flight from Paya Lebar Airbase where we were operating from. Sadly he had his mission altered and he could not gaurantee a return trip, so we had to say no. Probably wouldn't have been a good look to call our boss to say we were floating in the 'oggin' on the Enterprise with no way back!!

On the same exercise whilst our Orion was out on a mission they had a delay. While they were circling on hold the plane Captain ended up on the radio having a discussion with the Enterprise Captain. After a few minutes the Enterprise Captain said it was nice to speak to the Kiwis and that he "would see them soon". Not knowing exactly what he meant, they were chuffed when about 20 minutes later he appeared on their LH wing in his Tomcat for a closer chat!! I saw some really good photos taken by the crew and the tomcat was very close, the two Tomcat crew waving and taking photos back. I wish I had copies.
