That is very very impressive screenshot taking technique WITHOUT WITHOUT WITHOUT using Photoshop.

Seeing as I use Photoshop in my "day job" (Web Developer), I have it available for sim use. I *do* use it for screenshots - but never to *compose* the shot - only to crop, correct colouring (if necessary) or add a tiny bit of sharpening here and there.

How do you slew ?
I can "teleport"in 2020 , but its not the same as the good old FSX slew mode.(2020 can only go up)
Helicopters (for me anyway) teleport down ......its a weird thing man....

Check your 2020 key bindings. SLEW should be able to slide up, down, sideways - as well as rotate horizontally and vertically. The problem I find is that the keyboard sensitivity defaults to quite high and the movements can be a bit excessive. There's a mod out there for P42 Flow (excellent!) that slows down the repeat rate, but it's not available for 2024 (yet). As regards teleporting over huge distances, have you tried the FSPM mod?

See, this is why it's such a pain to "upgrade" to a new sim - it takes years to map everything, and make it "Yours"

I have simrate mapped to "H" (Slower) and "J" (Faster).
Using the <Shift>-Z utility I can see the simrate overlaid the way it was in the legacy versions.
I mapped the Num keyboard arrows to the various slew directions, and 'Tarah!" discovered that if you slow the simrate down it also slows down the slew rate!

Game changer.

Great stuff - thanks!

Thank you both very much for the intel.
I have much to learn ....I'm loving this
