John:

Since you didn't bother to say please, i can't see why i should bother tell you where to get the ship :huf:

BUT, since i'm in a good mood today (payday) i'll tell you :partyman: :drinkers:

The ship in the above picture is USS CONYNGHAM DDG-17 by Earl Watkins and can be "aquired" from AVSIM. The first ship in the following sequence is:

A) LIBERTY SHIP by Phil Crowther liberty_ship_v2.zip (AVSIM)

B) FLETCHER CLASS DESTROYER by Phil Crowther (AVSIM)

C) US CoastGuard ship made by Mitsuya Hamaguchi (Hama)

I was also VERY sceptical about FSX, but after a mayor PC crash where no recovery was possible i just bite the dust. I bought myselves a new computer and FSX, and i would say i'm very happy with fsx, it works a lot better than FS9 ever worked on my older computer. I will never ever go back to FS9.

Here is the reason why, among other:

Well, as we would say out here, those shots are 'money'. :shock: Beautiful indeed, I am VERY impressed. HOnestly, I thought FSX was just another blatant cash-in by Microsoft to extend the series, but the quality jump is evident...once it comes down in price from $70 I will contemplate getting it.

Brilliant shots and thanks for 'converting' me from sceptic to believer!
