A shot of an AW650 Argosy passing Mt Ruapehu at FL180 on a rare daylight freight run from Auckland to Palmerston North.
An excellent model by Rick Piper.

Yes very realistic and well animated, as are all his models. If you look at the detail in the rear stairs of the HS748 you will be amazed. They are also a delight to fly. The beam compass takes a bit of getting your head around. A weird one that.

The model is available from http://www.btinternet.com/~rick.piper/ and is for FS9.

If you cant fly without an FMC then this might not be for you.

Attention to detail is amazing.
