Yesterday, I did a flight from Stornoway to Barra, over the Hebrides. I once had read some things about it in a book of W.E. Johns. It was somewhat described (and drawn, it was in fact a comic, based on the book) as a group of small islands, lots of cold, dark water, and few people. Since I decided to fly around a bit and didn’t wanted to go far away from my homebase RAF Leuchars (most of my flights in FS are carried out with Leuchars as home base, when I’m flyin’ around the UK. Dublin is one of my personal favorites too, because of it’s nice location. Perfect for autumn screenshots! I flew, flew and flew…and then I decided to let the engines do what their best at: pushing the Tornado to mach 1.35 at low altitude, screaming over the dark seas. I took quite some screenshots and edited some them. And, some loops, rolls, barrel rolls, zoom climbing to 32000 ft,…almost everything I would do if I had my good old CFS 3 P-38L Lightning.
Let me show you the screenshots, I guess you’re glad to see some after this piece of boring advertising for the Hebrides
.
In case you’d like a full-size screenshot of one in my ‘collection’, you can mail me of course, and you’ll get a high-resolution copy in .PNG format, so you don’t have quality loss (by the way, I always set quality at 100 % in Paint.NET). I had to decrease the size of the shots so they’d fit in the blog, you can always view them at 800×600 pixels on my Photobucket album.
