Great screenshots must get that scenery. I recall going to Chicago for my 40th just before they closed Meigs a couple of years later, it was like visitinga shrine seeing the aircraft fly out of there, my hotel room had a great view of it. Ah happy dayz...

Awesome shots airboatr. FS2004 still looks good after all these years.

Tony,
I looked high and low in my drives for the file name of that scenery. I'm certain that there are 3 files for Chicago that I used
the airport, a building package, and one for the harbor.
The plane has two
one of the plane and VC (no panel) and a second that adds the panel done by a different person that matches the VC
How ever I can't find them. I had a HD crash a long time ago and I never was able to recover the data.
maybe Techy might have it.. we did some multi flying back a few years ago and I think I sent him the files so we were looking at the same scenery
I also sent him the V35 and panel.
Thanks for the compliments gents.

Thanks for the update, no worries on the sceney. Its great to see superb screenshots of what FS9 can do and you seem to have yours running just about spot on

Could this be the version of Meigs that you may be looking for?

bless ya for that mate,
I installed fs9 on my lappy so this will be great to have , I'm not sure if it's the exact file I had . but if it's a good reproduction then it serves it's purpose.
Now all I need is a miniature joystick with throttle slide to carry with.
