FSX Screenshots Here!!

l've been busy trying to get some old favorites from FS9 up and going for FSX. I found a FSX native model set for the old Manfred Jahn L749 Constellations at California Classics, so I thought I'd give them a whirl. Dug through my back up files and found the rest of the aircraft in an old FS9 backup install and went to work.

1) Rolling Stones Tour plane parked at the old Memphis Terminal. Mick and the boys picking up Elvis?

2) Late 40s ish MATS C-121

3) Kind of 50s ish MATS VIP C-121

3) Had a devil of a time starting it and not sure how I did it, but got the old Merc Air Connie back up in the air.

Finally remembered how to start the Connie (hint: Cntrl-e don't work, FE panel is where it's at). Took a short flight above the tree tops from KMEM Memphis to KNQA Millington and parked there. Think I might have found my Air Tour ride.

Good luck getting the 'Whale' into Kitty Hawk Willy! Rob and I did it in a DC-3/C-47 last night and it was a bit tight! :oops:
 
Darn, haven't posted any pics here since last year...

Found some old paints for Milton's XA-38 Grizzly that I was working on several years ago and never finished. Also notice that he'd set it up for bump maps and specs. Ought to keep me busy for a while trying to remember how I did those.

TDS Boeing P-8A Poseidon with civil livery (Janet by Kyle Schurb @ avsim, originally a 737-600). Fictional? Maybe not...
