To be fair, I always thought it was set up by fans until this screenshot appeared.

EDIT - Looks like these shipsim people know how to go about realizing that 'magic screenshot' effect

Their profile pic is an edit of one of the latest official screenshot releases, BUT it's not just a simple crop of it.
I had a play with PS and tried to recreate it.
Here's the profile pic laid over the official screenshot, which I rotated and re-sized to fit.
This shows that the only way to create that profile pic is to have access to a bigger 'uncropped' version of the official screenshot.
And there's only one group of people that would have access to that.

I don't understand. How do YOU have it then?

You said only one group of people have that original image. But you said you overlaid their profile pic over the original screenshot. The one you said only one group of people have.
So the question is, how did YOU get your hands on the original uncropped image to do your overlay?
It's obviously available for anyone to download, correct?

No, I used the official shot that was released and the Facebook profile pic.
The pic I've uploaded here shows the two together and that more of the official screenshot would be needed to make the profile pic.
Hope that makes sense.

Ok.
I guess time will tell whether or not it is indeed taken from Flight.
Not saying it isn't, but I'm not saying it is, either.
If it is, and they expect good framerates, they must have completely re-coded the entire sim. Seems like an awful lot of detail for a static ship.

What I'm afraid of is the fact that Microsoft is probably developing and testing Flight on their mega machines, probably with Intel i9 superclocked monster processors and triple-SLI setups and whatnot, where it runs fine, but on the rest of our machines would run like crap.
I have a bad feeling this is what happened with FSX (remember when FSX first came out and it was unheard of to run it at maximum settings?)
Even today, most users aren't running FSX on maximum settings.
