August 1, 200223 yr I love that third pic -- with the empty runway and lightning. You must be pretty fast with the keyboard to snap when the lightning strikes. Beautiful shots...how much spare time to you have to Fly!II, anyway? :) You often post a lot of great shots.These remind me of some of the stormy flights I've flown into the mountains in Fly! II. Here is a recipe for a realistic (even scary) flight:1) Plan to fly into a small runway in the mountains w/ a difficult approach.2) Big clouds, hard rain.3) TBM 7004) Cleared 4 Takeoff5) Mix in some real, recorded ATC chatter w/ Enviro6) Turn up the volume, and turn out the lightsMan, I get sweatty palms when I go to land in those conditions.

August 2, 200223 yr DanThat reminds me of the first time I'd tried Fly! 1 a couple of years ago.I had had no experience with it only some idea from the ads I'd seen 'somewhere'. I chose the scenario at JFK in a King Air(?) , it was dark and I guess the sim was set to real time. It put me in the middle of JFK (or so it seemed) - there was the sound of ATC chattering and then I heard the sound of a jet winding up ( behind me, beside me? ) - I had no idea what to do but your description 'I get sweatty palms' almost gives an idea of what I was feeling :-)Ben
