November 19, 200223 yr Beautiful. They really invoke a mood. I know how you feel, I'm addicted to flying through the Rocky Mountains at dusk in heavy rain. I definitely think these pics are screenshot forum worthy...you should post them.
November 20, 200223 yr Sunday was an interesting day in the northeast. I was on a real flight (American 468) from DFW to BDL and arrived in Hartford at 1 pm. Conditions were about 3/4 mile with an 800 foot ceiling, temp 33 degrees with a light NE wind and rain/sleet showers. On the approach which takes us over Islip we got between two layers. Since I know the approach is for crossing Islip at 11,000 feet I estimated the top layer starting at about 14,000 feet and the top of the bottom layer at about 7,000 ft. When I actually got home I immediately downloaded the relevant METAR. Haven't had a chance to fly it yet on the sim, but should be fun.

November 21, 200223 yr I didn't realize I had compressed the JPG's so much. No big deal to upload via modem.
