Welcome to the 13th monthly FS2004.com screenshot contest!  Byron started the first monthly screenshot contest in September of last year, and the tradition has continued ever since.  I am filling in for him this month since he will be away for a few days.  Thanks Byron for all your hard work!

Justin over at FSGenesis is sponsoring this month's competition again! If you like Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 you'll love the photorealism provided by FSGenesis terrain upgrades.  FSGenesis compiles detailed data gathered by the United States Geological Survey into FS2004 terrain mesh files.  This results in highly accurate sim topography.  This month's prize donated by FSGenesis is a free Galaxy Membership, a US$100 value! :D  This membership gives the winner access to ALL of FSGenesis' creations for 3 years!  More information about the FSGenesis Galaxy Membership may be found here.  Thanks Justin!

Contest rules, including VOTING rules (who can and can't vote) may be found here.

And now for the shots! :o

#6 gets my vote!   :D  I really like the thunder/lightening effect!   How do you get the lightening to show up in there?

I know, I have seen other shots in previous screenshot contests with this lightening strike, so it is default.  :D   What I meant was how do you go about getting the lightening to happen?  Is there a setting on Flight simulator weather where you can have the lightening/thunder?  How do you turn it on?

Are you allowed to enter a shot in the contest that has been posted before in the forums here at FS2004.com ?  What about a shot that has been posted somewhere else, is that allowed?  :D
