NZFF

The Delta Sim C-17 in various locations and liveries.

Canadian at NZCH on a misty day.





One from Alaska.


Ramp 70 Auckland.

Overhead


Hickam visitor .


36 Squadron at Queenstown.






Cockpit.

From any angle The Moose looks impressive. Great shots.

Will always be a McDonnell Douglas product, in my mind.
That headon shot at NZQN qualifies as wallpaper.

You’re getting he hang of these screenshots SP. Many of them could be real world.
I wonder long term if this might be Flightsimulations undoing. That is is so lifelike. How long will aircraft companies and airlines tolerate online screenshot/ videos posted of aircraft, displaying their livery, crashing or doing “dumb” things?

I'm never sure whether I like the aircraft (something not quite right about the tailfin) but your shots are great! Yes - you really are getting the hang of it!

Thanks very much for the comments Chaps.
Its hard to believe how this hobby( obsession) has evolved, and how fast. When I started, "clouds" were cubic...but I was hooked.
This is where I'll stay. I've removed all the P3D stuff I had , along with FSX and DCS.
I'm hanging onto War Thunder , IL2, AFS4 and of course XPlane 12...but doubt any of those will get much attention for a while.
If I upgrade anything it will be this platform (MSFS2020) ...but that's for later.

CP, you raised an interesting question....I'm not sure which incarnation of the sim was in use at the time, but after the 911 attack, Microsoft removed the scenery concerned.

I quite like the rear end view (ooeeer ... missus!)

@splitpin - I don't think I could bear to remove DCS (those aircraft models & cockpits are superb) - but I do struggle with that insane GUI.

Adam, DCS isn't gone...just hiding.
Re the tail view shot...the star of that shot isn't the C-17...its the background.

Ramp 70 NZAA screenshot looks amazing although I cannot identify the two airline planes parked at the passenger gates in background.

The mountain realism is amazing in the Queenstown airport screenshots!!!
