Lovely shots! Very crisp and clear

Thanks Meine,
They looked much much better before I cropped them and compressed them. Unfortunately you can't see how good it really looked through those pics.
Thanks again,

Thanks for the compliments guys, much appreciated. I really need to re-install FRAPS so I can start taking some inflight shots as well. I have been away for a while.
The scenery is the Lago/Cloud 9 Rome scenery. It is absolutely spectacular. LIRF is just a piece of the scenery, it comes with three airports total, with working fingers and hangars with working doors etc... as well as all of downtome Rome in some of the best photorealistic scenery I have seen. Really very impressive stuff with 0 frame rate hits. I can not wait for Cloud9 to finish their Schipol and Amsterdam scenery :)
Thanks again, much appreciated,

Great work. I'm thinking of getting FS Passengers too. Is that the Simflyers LIRF or the ISD version ?

Hi Anscad,
It is the Lago/Cloud 9 Rome scenery that includes LIRF. What you missed was the follow me car leading me all the way from the high sped exit off the runway to my waiting gate :) Like I said, the airport is just part of the scenery.
As for FSPassengers, I would never fly without it. It adds an entire new dimension to flying when you hear passengers screaming or applauding and actually get ranked based on your performance. I have never paid as much attention with my flights as I do with FsP. There is a free demo that lets you fly anwhere from San Francisco...
Thanks,
-Paul
