FLIGHTFX POLICY
1.) We design for reality, not for idealism.
Thus, you will not see virtual cabins on our aircraft. You can not see inside the real thing anyway, unless you are looking into the sun. You will find virtual cockpits but they will not be visible from outside for the same reason.
2.) We design for people with real computers. Thusly, we will not waste polygons on superfluous parts. We will use a texture when there is no noticeable difference between it and a group of performance wasting parts. We will model our aircraft efficiently. If you do not like it, too bad.
3.) We will give you the latest features, but we WILL NOT sacrifice visual accuracy to implement them. Accuracy comes before eye candy.[/font size]

Hey, this one woman survived a 34,000 ft. collision when she jumped... she came out with a broken leg. www.guinnessworldrecords.com
My prayers go out to all who died :(

Go to English version and do a search for 154. There's loads of textures there.
I must admit...the night before the crash I had been putting together all the textures for the tu154s I had downloaded from that site (including the airline that lost the aircraft) and this made it even more shocking (if that's possible) when I saw the news. As soon as I heard I had a horrible feeling it was going to be a 154.
Bashkirian had a very good safety record before this as well....10 years and no serious incidents. Everyone should have checked this out before laying into "unsafe" Russian airlines.
Very sad.
I wish those were photos, Erick.
