Cheers Leigh & Magpie, Gremlin : I followed the link you PM'd me 
I was aware of the one you all refer to, but its taking so long to finalise I'm beginning to think its been infected with the ' In a couple of weeks' Maddox virus
@ Suicider: Its entirely a composite & render job, the basic aircraft models themselves prior to my enhancing their appearance with this n that, are from FS2004, the background is a composite of bits & effects with additions of scratch lighting effects ,shadows, hilites, suynrays etc
FS2004 is actualy a good Simulator in reality, you name possibly any aircraft you can think of & you can fly it in FS2004 and in my honest opinion its far better in every aspect to il2...only 2 things wrong with it, is ya cant shoot folk down & the ground environment close up leaves a little to be desired, but up at 3000feet+, it puts il2 to shame for realism, plus the add ons, mods, aircraft you can get are endless... anyway...I'm bleating...lol
For anyone who hasnt got FS2004, its a great tool for screenshots, pretty cheap to get nowdays being as how FSX is supercedes it, I think FSX is only better in 2 areas than FS2004, thats water effects and a better ground environment which still isnt as good as it should be considering its relatively new, other than these 2 things its virtually the same as FS2004 and ya still cant shoot shit down
I have FS2004 & FSX....I still use FS2004 as opposed to FSX, as I've said, it isnt much better than FS2004 the main reason for my putting it on my shelf of doom is its a system resource hogging truffle maniac
Cheers All
