FSX B-52 by Alphasim taking off from Edwards AFB (KEDW) and doing a 180 to land back at the only strip a GA pilot like me can find to handle a behemoth like this.

Comments both good and bad more than welcome.

First I will answer that one nagging question "Why is your copilot so ugly?"
Its part of USAF regulations
My only comment is in the last picture as you exit the runway--you drag the left wing in the dirt, thus resulting in a damaged aircraft (In real life)
Big wings, need big turns |

Ugly? His mother loves him, his dog does also. 
I'm happy just to land something that large in one piece
I am unhappy with the bad desert textures.

| Great pics, question for you. How do you get the GPS to be up on the screen like that. Can it be on any view, such as the Virtual Cockpit? |

Download and print this out.

Most modern aircraft have them, press "Shift+1, then 2, 3, 4"
I found it's usually 3 or 4 that has it.
You can move it and resize it with your mouse.

Nice Pics
Using the GPS and PID(I think thats what its called: horizon, airspeed, etc.) displays while being in the Locked Spot is how I prefer to fly. I like to be able to look at my plane, its so pretty...  |

Hi,
Are you sure about the B-52 to be compatible with FSX ? It is posted as Fs2004 on Alpha's page ?

Try a free B-52 when you can find one, it's a lumbering giant that handle very easily, I have problems with jets also.
I just fly GA and vintage but this old workhorse has always been one of my favorites.

That's the one, it happens to work for me in FSX.

Yeah I got mine to work in FSX also. I take off from Barksdale AFB in my home town. The real life pilots do touch and go's out of there all the time and I see them all the time when I'm out driving around town. Barksdale has a lot of B52's. |
