There seems to be an up tick in Political commentary in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site we know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religiours commentary out of the fourms.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politicion will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment amoung members. It is a poison to the community. We apprciate compliance with the rules.

Sadly.. Foxy Lady suffered a hydraulic failure after displaying at Duxford a couple of weeks ago culminating in a gear up landing at Yeovilton. The pilot did a great job and walked away unhurt but Foxy is going to be out of action for some time. Fingers crossed they're able to get her back in the air again.
Get well soon Foxy!!

I really have to look hard at your images to work out what model you use, sometimes its bloody hard to decipher between Wozza's and A2As T6
your ability to paint and screen capture makes every model look like expensive payware and I swear your PC is one of these supercomputers that have the horsepower to run a country's national defense system
Matt, you make me laugh, but thanks just the same! Granted, I know I've painted expensive payware to the level of something one couldn't give away though too. The David Eckert/Warwick Carter Texan is still a joy, as ever, to look at/fly in the sim, and if the A2A rear passenger is missing, and you have it configured with the T-6G canopy/spinner, the two do become quite indistinguishable in the sim, at least from the outside (I've had some e-mails every now and then asking about repaints I did for the David Eckert/Warwick Carter model, where in which they saw screenshots of that model and thought the repaints were for the A2A model).
My system is quite modest compared to some (most?) I've seen here/have been envious about, and I try just to keep up. I'm still running an old i5-2500 CPU (3.3GHz), and my beloved MSI GTX 560 Ti finally bit the dust late last year, so I've been running with the budget option I settled on of an EVGA GTX 1050 Ti since then (performance has actually been just a touch better I think than I had with the 560). As long as I'm getting at least a regular 20fps, I'm happy though, and other than the water settings (which I keep just high enough to use the DX10 cloud shadows), I run it with all of the detail maxed out and scenery radius expanded in the .cfg (usually 6.5).
Can't see a shot anywhere of Constellation or her Sea King but I did this one a while back and you're welcome to a copy:
