@Pugilist2 Thanks!
I like the metallic glance of this plane very much.
It's a very early addon for FS9 (2005, Dreamfleet / Flight1) and they did a great work with this livery 👍
 

@Anders Bermann I knew that there would come a strange answer.
You can't jump over your shadow, because I once made a joke about PBR = pretty brilliant reflexions?

Beautiful! I really like the clean wings of the 727 and VC-10.

I thought this was a PMDG post dropping a hint at developing a 727. Oh well...

Still, nice picture there.

PMDG only posts screen shots or announcements in their forum, never in the screen shots area of the forums.

Cool shot. Thanks for remembering, I [almost] forgot. Will have to fly this wonderful plane more often...

I know. I only saw the post title on the forum front page so couldn't see what sub forum it was in.

@HaraldG gern geschehen! Es ist doch immer wieder eine große Freude, alte Schätzchen auszugraben 🙂

Der FS9 bietet ja einiges schon bei den Default-Flugzeugen (Motto Jahrhundert der Luftfahrt). Und was die eingefleischten FS9-Simmer erst alles im Hangar haben . . .

So: your screenshots well appreciated 🙂
These oldies and these goodies make appetite to fly and to buy, whereas all the busses again and again in other forums are just boring 😞

@claudiofalcao  Thank you! I cannot stand against your fantastic FS9-screenshots to hail the Queen of the skies. Very well done!

@threegreen   maybe soonTM ?
