Why don't you make a movie rather than having hundreds of stills?

Making a left turn? I don't think so Captain, that's a right turn!

It's easy to get confused when you have so many shots.

GHD and 511Fyer,

Thank you for viewing my screenshots.

GHD,

I used to do youtube videos of FSX flights many moon years ago but did not relish enjoyment of producing videos. I find MORE JOY and MORE enjoyment producing screenshots.

511Flyer,

You are right it should be right turn. My apologies to you and all viewers. It is result of GROGGY morning blues!

Please stay tuned for next exciting flights.

Regards,

Aharon
