Hi there,

 

I'm new to FSX and AVSIM, I hope I'm not doing anything wrong.

 

A few pics of the VRS F/A-18E

 

 

 

 

 

And the related video I made : http://forum.avsim.n...sx-carrier-ops/

Welcome to Avsim!

Great shots, thanks for sharing.

But if I'm allowed to say something: I wouldn't have presented the very last one, where you can see the plane goes straight into the carrier deck. I know that it's not your fault, but how FSX tends to handle carrier landings, but it simply doesn't look that great.

Great shots. What carrier is that ?

Great pics! :smile:

As a fellow victim of misaligned trap landings... I must say that last one was the best and put a smirk on my face and a silent little "ahhh-yep... been there, done that" ran through my head.

Welcome to AVSIM and the Screen Shots Forum. I like the entire series. I especially like the time lapse collage of the last image. Keep on Posting!!

nice shots, creative too

Welcome to AVSIM!

 

Nice blur and lighting/shadow effects! The situation in the last image looks uncomfortable. . . .

Thanks a lot guys :smile:

Well, that collage was just for fun. It's actually my very first successfull (=not killing myself) trap landing with the VRS Superbug :lol:

It's the outstanding USS Eisenhower by Javier Fernandez, freeware !

lol, I think carrier landing are uncomfortable, no matter what

For us, going from +/- 200 Km/h to 0 in less than 2 seconds is called a crash. For Navy pilots it's just another trap landing.

 

Thanks again for all the nice comments !

Very nice! Great humour in the last shot!

Thanks Clem Wu :smile:

I know you guys have seen thousands of Grand Canyon pics but I guess this is just something any FSX newbie has to do

 

 

 

F-14D Super Tomcat by Dino Cattaneo | REX | Grand Canyon Scenery by...erh...I don't know, but it's freeware

Tomcat pic is nice.. almost a slight bokeh effect. If you can, please try and look up which scenery that is ... I would like to get it.

Awesome!

Thanks !

 

Here is the link for the GC scenery : aussiex.org/forum/index.php?/files/file/12-grand-canyon-and-kgcn-holgermesh-v2/

And yes, I've added a slight bokeh effect in the first screenshot. This probably wouldn't happen if it was a real pics but...meh...It looks good

 

Cheers

The background in the second image looks as if it is a pastel painting!
