Ah.......not real..if it was the sky would be grey
Nice shot J0hn
Sometimes it's nice to just see the shape against a pure sky....simple but effective...no clutter
If you show that to any non simmer I would think they would accept is as a real postcard or similar publicity shot without a second thought
Apart from the labels that is

Yes, thanks, it is slightly pixellated due to the resolution change, of course, which takes some of the authenticity away (originally 1680x1050).
As for the blue sky, well we could always say it was taking off from Larnaca or Haiti International... ;-)

You're not suggesting that the clouds in FSX are anything less than hyper-realistic?!
