• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    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 politician 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 among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

We have a lot of fun in our sims taking pictures of our planes in flight. Got to do that for real last week working on an air-to-air media project and I though it would be fun to post a little of it here. We had two planes (C206 and C208) for the flight. We configured one as the camera ship and set up the film crew in back harnessed in with the cargo door removed. Took some photos and videos around sunset and landed at a remote airstrip just as the sun disappeared. Got up early the next morning, swapped configurations on the two aircraft, and took off for some sunrise and morning shots of the second plane. It was some of the most fun I've had in an airplane. The first shot is mine taken of the photo ship (I was not pilot flying either aircraft on day one). The second is of me flying the photo ship on day two. We haven't seen the professional images yet, but the camera crew said they're going to be great.
