A Late Celebration of 500 Posts

[mtflyer]

As I have said in the past, I don't always reply to every post I look at,
or make that many posts as you can tell, since this is only 500 some.

Anyways, on with the screenshots.
I modified some of the scenarios in Orbiter to get this right.

STS-117 Atlantis is at LC 39A where she's supposed to be

Sweet pics as always!!! And congrats on 500!!!
BTW, I went to Youtube, out of curiosity, and found a long video someone made on a takeoff,docking,undocking,and landing of the Space Shuttle.Very kick-a$$!!! I know this sim is free, but I also know you can't just jump in and fly ala FS.
After seeing the video and your screenies, I'm half-tempted to give it a go!

Thanks Jeff, I appreciate the comments!!

I'll have to look for that video, and yes you should try it.
One of the greatest things about it, everything is freeware!!

Thanks again, good night for now
