The human eye and brain is very good at filtering out the bluish haze when viewing the ground from altitude. But film isn’t, even with UV filters. I was always disappointed with shots taken from an aircraft at cruise. Too blue! That’s how I see P3D with EA on.

Ray...Is that with P3d v5.3, or P3d v4.5?

I use the same settings as well. My only gripe with EA on is that there is too much light scattering or haze close to the aircraft. to me It looks like I"m looking down on a constant layer of very light fog. If anyone knows how push that out so that the first 10-20 miles is clear and then gradually increases into the distance let me know.

I also like to use EA on during daytime because it gives me a natural, blueish haze (that comes closest to the pictures I posted) with a warm glow from the sun. The color of the sky looks also quite realistic. Could you post a picture that shows the constant layer of very light fog, so that I can compare and see if a solution can be found?

Great.  For some reason, I thought you were using 4.5 because of the Concord experience you were looking for.

Concorde isn't available (yet) on 64 bit platforms, hence it can't be beyond version 3.

I just stopped by Lockheed Martin’s office in my hometown and politely asked for some information on v6.  They told me to take a hike.

We should be patient. I live on the other side of the world and I am patiently waiting. Because great things comes to those who wait. 

Is it classified? Go to your local high school and find some Junior ROTC kid  and ask him. State of national security these days but I digress.

Rather not. You really don't want a convoy of black Chevy Suburbans coming down your road.

In case you don't have U.S. TV shows where you are, Chevy Suburbans are used by the FBI. And usually are seen in convoys of three or four.
