Nicely done. Nebojsa

Thanks :)

Currently enroute myself in the Queen from Phoenix Sky Harbor (PHX) to London Heathrow (LHR) in the Speedbird dress. Performing flawlessly at the moment, boring night cruise as for now and cannot wait to see sunrise. Expecting 30min early arrival at the moment. What sounds were you using on the video? I like that wingview vid. :(

I was using these two videos: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlLma_BLaM0andhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUlbfS1d378 :D

Just as I thought. :( Would be neat to have a soundpack like that in FS.

If you remember the old days when I flew the Overland queen, I gotta tell you that it had that exact same sound set as in those videos. The cockpit sounded like the passenger view and the outside sounds like.. well outside :D Not sure if it's still in the library tho.

awesome! what rig have you got?

Intel 2600k AOC'd to ~4.4GHz (Motherboard finds best settings at each reboot)Asus P8P67 Deluxe8 GB DDR3 RAMGTX 580 60 FPS with autogen / water off40 FPS with autogen and water :D

Hi! Great post. Very creative and I really liked that video you did with the wing view. Your ground textures are really crisp throughout and make it very realistic. Was nice to see a difference in scenery between the German fields and downtown Seattle. You really felt like you were arriving in the USA! Many thanks, Pierre

Nicely done!

Thanks everyone :)
