Could not resist it, thought I would do a few flights around the Lochs and scenic areas of Scotlands wonderful countryside just north and west of Glasgow.

Back on the ground for lunch then a return flight to explore more of that wonderful countryside and Lochs.

Garry, after much thought I finally went with Flight 1
see link

Much better than the default scenery you get for FS9 and this one covers most of the world. For around £15 have no complaints though do now need a better Graphic Card - presently have G-Force fx5200 128mb.

Thanks Garry, The Dove is just one of those old classic prop aircraft that is so satisfying to fly (as well as Chippie) you don't like to rush about in them!!

Nice pics Nigel :smile:

Your glazing looks a bit dark...do you have 'reflections' switched on?..

Not sure Derek, which one do you mean? No lens flare on, maybe I should have that ticked and T & L is on.
