    Oddly, some of the buildings look like they bombed ruins?

    That is the Photogrammetry at work Paul. Trust me, the melted/bombed look of various buildings around the MSFS world gave me fits for a LONG time. Some people are okay with it and it doesn't bother them, others like me think the melted look takes away from the immersion. It is what it is with Photogrammetry. It's the same reason why there are bridges around that look like solid chunks all the way to the water. The good news is, for buildings, bridges and other landmarks, the melted look can be gotten rid of by making them custom objects. The bad news there of course is that that takes a ton of time and manpower. Certain areas of the world, London being one of them, seem to be harder hit by the Photogrammetry melted look. Further, in your MSFS settings, on the DATA section, you can turn OFF Photogrammetry, which gets rid of the melted buildings, and you just have autogen buildings instead. They don't look as custom as the Photogrammetry buildings that are NOT melted, but it is very good looking autogen (and you MIGHT gain a little better performance). The only way to know if you like it or not is to try it and see. I used to run with Photogrammetry OFF for a long time, but then the more I got into flying airliners in MSFS, the less I saw of the buildings so I turned it back on for the detailed buildings that aren't melted. Hope that explains it a bit for you.

    Lots of memories, including the the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum :).

    Love the Smithsonian Museum! That complex is HUGE, with SO much to see! The Air and Space Museum is my favorite part of the Smithsonian. There are so many other very neat and historical things to see in D.C. I always spend time at the various war memorials, as obviously that is important to me to honor the fallen. The FBI museum is super cool too, lots of Cold War spy tech in there, plus some cool stuff from the Prohibition Era in the 20's. Great bunch of images here Paul, so much to see!

  3. Man, Iain, you are on a roll! First you come out of the shadows posting block buster images again, and then all of a sudden Nick is throwing up some great images. What is happening over there across the pond? Whatever it is, I am loving the images you all are putting up here! :D

    I think that my next purchase will be the P-38

    I think you will be happy with the P-38 Paul. It got some really excellent reviews back when it was released. I just have never bought it because I already had too many new aircraft when the P-38 came out.
