Just finished my second full flight on VMware, and the overall sim performance was smooth throughout!
Even with "Pause on task switch" unchecked, FS2004's sound stops playing the moment the sim is not focused, which is a problem if you're flying with ATC. Hence me flying on a VM.

It’s the start of another over worked and under paid night shift for the cargo boys.
Between 1977 and 1978 IPEC purchased four Armstrong Whitworth Argosys (Argosies?) for their overnight express services in Australia. This model is by Rick Piper (a big thanks from me).
Ready for loading at the cargo terminal in Brisbane:
The Argosy derived from a UK military specification, cargo doors opened front and rear for easy loading with power provided by four Rolls Royce Dart turboprops.
Loading almost complete:
The Load Master is taking a breath (I hope that is not a cigarette in his hand) as the main cargo is on board and secured:
The Whistling Wheelbarrow, as it was known, is ready for power up and the crew go through the start-up procedure:
Taxi clearance received and ready to make their way to the active runway:
Take off clearance given as they line-up and make final checks:
Up and away, gear retracting and about to turn onto a heading for Sydney.
Turning south for Australia’s biggest city:

Awesome pictures, Scottish Mike! Where can I download this aircraft?
For nostalgic reasons I decided to make a paintkit for the Spitfire PR XI by Chris Lampard and Shessi. As a teenager, the first real Spitfire I saw was the PL965, while it was still on display in the War- and resistance museum in Overloon. As the Spitfire had no real historic value for the museum, it was swapped for an ex-Indian Air Force Spitfire FR Mk.XVIIIe, which is currently painted as a Spitfire Mk XIV, as flown by 322 Dutch squadron RAF in 1944, and is on display in the museum. The PL965 was beautifully restored into flying condition is currently one of the two remaining flying PR.XI Spitfires.
The Spitfire PA885 in the screenshots crashed near Meerlo on May 28, 1944, with 26-year-old Australian pilot Neville Clark on board. He belonged to the 542 Squadron RAAF, which was conducting reconnaissance flights over Germany in unarmed Spitfires. After taking photographs of German airfields near Dortmund and Bochum, his aircraft was hit by German anti-aircraft fire on the return journey. At a quarter past eight in the evening, his plane crashed just outside the Dutch village Meerlo. The Germans recovered his remains and buried them in Venlo. After the war, his remains were moved to the Jonkerbos military cemetery in Nijmegen.

Thanks Wolfebee!
, it will tell you that "FS8" can't run 3D clouds. I beg to differ. I set these up many years ago.
