I have about 400 FS9 aircraft that I want in FSX. I thought about the same idea. Short of a program that will do what you state which I doubt we would ever get from MS I have looked at another approach in the meantime. It may be possible for some programming expert to do this. The problem is that you have to go back and select the next aircraft one by one and wait for all of the A/C to load, which is long if you have as many planes as Ido. There is an Abacus program called FSRepaint which will show each of your planes in 3D which you can freely rotate. You can quickly load a plane take a screenshot and go to another plane. The problem is that the Print Screen is disabled. If there was some sort of screen grabber which would grab the picture then they could be cropped and using a batch program create the thumbnails. If anyone has any ideas I'm sure we all would appreciate it.Regards, BobF.

Pick one.I've used "Grabber2k" for the past six years and have been very pleased with it. Less than 100K, it has one of the smallest memory "footprints" of any I've checked out, and can save everything from multiple monitors to a selected area of one screen. It can save as .jpg or .bmp, to any folder you wish, and will autoincrement the file names.It will save screen captures as fast as you can press the PrintScreen key... ;)http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/win/15940

We actually tried to implement a feature like this ('cause we knew there'd be folks with lots of add-ons) but never got it to work well enough so it got yanked. I have no doubt, though, that some enterprising 3rd party developer will come up with a solution. ;)
