I used the Quick mission builder... I was just holding form on it... I don't think you can fly it at all or even gun in it...

Draw tool: lines for radio wires

Resize: (smartsize) 80% but still looked too big so 80% again

Picture frame: Photo edge #3

Artistic effects: sepia 20 yrs

Soften tool under wings: Hardness. Opacity, Density 22%

The shot of the Checkertail P-51 with the B-25, if it was made during the war, was probably taken when we were stationed at Mondolfo in northern Italy.

So he was surprised that it was actually from a simulation.  Just thought you would like to know.
