Ten pictures I just had to share, would have been many more but these I really like and wanted to share without flooding a thread with screens. (Was hard to narrow down)

Some very nice shots there - I really must accept the hit and get that 747 at some point. It's a superb aircraft.

I think the 763 with the sun behind the clouds is my favourite, though.
 
There are definitely times when I like to fly the heavies. My favorite, though, is the DC-9/MD-80.

Landing is a blast. To me anyway.

Thanks guys! I like all aircraft but I have been simming MSFS since 1998 so after some time I found trying to master the heavies is the best way to feel good after a sim flight. To understand everything best you can and think to yourself afterwards that you covered some if not most what the real deal tubeliner pilots cover in the cockpit. I love GA for just a fun flight or to explore new areas, scenery, etc. But when I want to simulat I go to my heavies and get that weather going.
 
I have never understood the appeal of flying the tubeliners, but I do love watching them as AI and those are some sweet shots!
