A set of 'screenies' for Tim's benefit!

Hi Manfred,
Honest answer is; it's just by luck really, and some careful choosing of the angle the screenie is taken from!
I've found with this Wessex, that at certain angles, and with certain backgrounds it does indeed look really very good! Other times, I get the awful silvery disc, or it pick up a background texture or something similar; the ground shadow of the spinning rotor can look horrible on the ground too!
Have a go yourself, it's quite fun setting up a shot sometimes; I don't have TrackIR switched on when I'm doing screen shots either, for better control of my view points!

Ah - well that explains a lot indeed. A shame that there are so few designers that design really interesting aircraft - no one wants a boring hundredth Cessna 172![]()
Here I was, minding my own business, goofing around the area of Dimus' new scenery when SWMBO pop's in and looks at the screen..
She said "How can you fly with wings like that?"
"It's only a small airport so I've folded the wings" I replied.
"You are soo sad" she replied.
I rest my case
