Now, I don't have half the development or even FSX talent most of you guys have. What I do have, is a very good eye for the screenshots. I take great pride in them, and often set a single shot up for a half hour or more, position, tweaking, setting weather and time....so on and so forth.

The L-39 was one of the more significant releases of late. It is a serious accomplishment in this hobby when someone release a complex and eye-catching aircraft that is also designed for anyone to enjoy.

Anyway, thanks Lotus. I've really enjoyed this product. Everyone loves it and I haven't heard of any problems with it. Hell, the release thread went over 60,000 views.

Beautiful shots Tig. :applause: Mike's L-39 in all forms is a work of art, and your screenshots prove that Tig.

If you ever get the chance to ride in the backseat of an L-39... DO NOT pass it up. I just wish Mike was close to where I am as he'd definately have a ride.
He'd be another member of the 7G Club too. ;)

I helped a documentary film maker produce a film about B-1s once. I was selected by the public affairs office to be interviewed and give the grand tour. He wasn't offered a B-1 ride so when we were done, I took him up in a friend's plane and showed him the base from the air and some of the local B-1 playgrounds. He said that he had access to an L-39 and would give me a ride, but it didn't pan out when it was time for him to pony up. I was dissapointed, to say the least.
