Very nice Dave. There's no doubt which is the best looking of the bunch!

BTW, what's the problem with the latest ASN? Mine popped up with an update notice but I haven't downloaded it yet.

Hiya Dave..

It's difficult to be specific but I noticed the difference immediately as I fly with real weather almost all the time. It's not displaying the weather as well as it did with the previous build. I know this sounds odd but my REX clouds haven't changed.. only ASN so ASN must be responsible. Clouds seem to be rolling over models more (you see the cloud moving down the fuselage) rather than the model blindly ploughing through the cloud. Snow conditions are causing occasional flashes. Soft Clouds aren't sitting in and around obstructions like they once did. They seem to have lost some of their volumetric effect. Have been tempted to get AS2016 but I don't want more of the same

Great shots!! I enjoyed the first screenshot showing Galaxy!

Galaxy by Area 51 (don't go there)

Ha ha ha I agree!!!! It looks bad if close up screenshots but not so bad if take screenshots from distance like you did. Their engine details need work!! And I hate all black panel!!!

My favorite video of Galaxy plane:

It's unwieldy but you'd expect that. I'd already read how poor (for want of a better word) the VC was so I knew what to expect. What I REALLY don't care for is the nose-down pitch while in level flight. It must be -5deg.. maybe even -10 The animations aren't bad. You can open the tail and nose plus it kneels when the nose door is opened. Gear animation is 'fighter speed'.. FAR too fast

Overall.. it's rubbish
