On winning a copy FSXacceleration with a screen-shot compo at http://www.flightsim.co.nz/ I'm sure some of you might enjoy a looksie

Idea to show the panel detail , of course these are modified a todays standards , cockpit ergo, radios and nav and small airframe changes

the few airframe changes can be seen - wingtips and aerials

The Sound is 'PACKARD MERLIN' buzz your fav control tower

so thats what a XP-51

sounds like ...... wow to COOL

Just like Grahame Bethel's TAF Muzzie

more detail

showing U/C detail ... reflection .. Thought , Whats all this about so called "SHELF SHADOW COCKPITS"

Yeah would look good in a NZ warbird paint /skin , IN SEQUENCE to View shadow , general movement and affects

A lot more to explore

Looks like it has a great VC- but all FSX craft have that

The exterior doesn't look like payware to me, I reckon Warrick Carter's model looks more glamorous.

Are you using Vista/DX10 Ian? VC self shadowing was only implemented for that....

The quality of the exterior is something that doesnt really come through well in static screen shots...but it looks really really nice in full motion...each little panel reacts differently..

Its nice, I like!

using XP ... your right Tim

YEAH .. static shots cannot show what i view here I purchased a model , the Alphasim Scimitar the first , mentioned being the first with now infamous "SHELF SHADOW COCKPITS" , DX9c/DX10 , going to 32 to 64 bit Blablablablablablabla ....

phew .... new operating system and stuff ... anything recent appears to show a large graphic detail change , more dynamic frame/bumpmap/texture , ........ love to see a screenshot off the latest Vista type pc with what i'm seeing here

with a pay-ware model

system specs
6600@2.40Ghz
2.45GHz,3.00 GB of RAM
NVIDIA Geforce 8800 GTX/768MG DDR3

Wow looks nice Ian - did you know that the Acceleration Mustang was made by the guys at Sibwings (the same people that made the nice Saab Safair) and Captain Sim made the F-18?

I hate it when that happens- its a pity you can't transfer the atmosphere of flight from the sim into a single image

That puts a new spin on things- I thought it was just bog standard MS default aircraft, like the stock stuff in fs2004. I didn't know they had started hiring other companies to create their aircraft!

Think the F18's VC was subbed out - someone said it's the same one used in CapSim F117

No

In Captiansim's new pack, it uses the F-18 cockpit in an F-117
