Welcome June's Screenshot Contest!  :o

Our sponsor this month will be Abacus. The winner will receive a free copy of Flight Deck III.

Click here for the contest rules

Quote

Step up to the challenge of carrier based flight. The USS George Washington is your new base.


The flight deck is equipped with a powerful catapult to get your Mach 2 aircraft airborne in only a few hundred feet. And the steel cables strung across its stern are strengthened to bring your muscular jet to a screeching halt on a dime.


The working steam catapult and arrestor cables are from Richard Hogen exclusively for Flight Deck 3!


The brand new Fresnel Lens Landing system is from Graham Oxtoby.


On assignment you'll have this equipment at your disposal:


* F-14 Tomcat
* F-18 Hornet
* E-2C Hawkeye
* CH-46 Sea Knight
* AV-8B II Harrier
* S-3A Viking
* USS George Washington

Great shots this month!

FD3 (flight deck 3) is awsome! Congrats to the winner of it!

Shot 8 almost looks like the one posted here [Link Removed to protect the innocent ;)]

Admin note:  It's OK as long as the screenshot isn't identical to one posted before at FS2004.com or elsewhere :o

whenever i try to make my screenys into JPEGs they come out pixely not smoothe edges on the aircraft, how on earth do these guys above do it?

Admin Reply:  Antialiasing definitely helps smooth out the screenshot when it is taken.  To avoid the hassle of converting from BMP to JPG, download one of the screenshot programs listed in the topic about How to take a screenshot.  Most of the screenshot programs including ScreenGrab (which I use) save directly to JPG. :o
