F.O. turns around and grabs a pic of Manhattan...and some cockpit shadows.  :wink:

She's really growing on me Chris.  I think the cockpit is way too sterile looking compared to the "Boeing Brown" cockpit, but its very accurate and if you're gonna fly a 'Bus, you have to take the cockpit as it is in the real world, hehe.

 

The angle and lighting are what really make a screenshot transform from a visual representation of what the simmer saw into an almost surreal snaps  hot of what the poster experienced at that moment in flightsim.  Static screens can never capture the experience of seeing that shadow pan across the cockpit in a turn, and the sun in just the right position...it just adds that "pinch of salt" that turns a bland recipe into something to be enjoyed by your palette (in this case, a visual palette).  :smile:
