It sure is dude, FlyTampa KFSO, just purchased it last weekend actually, was getting sick of flying into boaring destinations, so very pleased, as well as the AES addon it makes for fantastic eye candy

Haha, well I thought to myself, what international destinations do ANZ fly to that have decent sim airport scenery that AES would work with, logical conclusion was good old San Francisco.

Another question- did you actually fly the full on 12 hour flight from NZ to the USA with the Queen of the Skies to get these pictures?

[Q300]

Aw I just those shots!!!

[benwynn]

s**t id hate to be a SFO ramp agent with you leaving the landing lights on

I dont think ANZ fly the 744 to SFO anymore, but excellent shots none the less. Love that wingview.

[Alex]

I dunno, I think those might just be taxi lights (but I'm not an expert), notice the outer lights are off, whereas the inners are on. Taxi? Or not?

I think they're just taxi lights, but these are often all that is used, especially taking off. See:

Sometimes they use both, Ive had Dash 8's take off from NP shining like a bloody Christmas tree right into my house (not that im complaining )
