Neither snow, nor rain, nor heat
nor gloom of night stays these
couriers from the swift completion
of their appointed rounds.
Another screenshot from MS Flight Simulator X that I wanted to share. This is a Grumman Goose making a mail delivery to Chernofski Harbor in the Aleutian Islands of Alaska. The weather was pretty challenging, but the mail must get through!
I have included the original screenshot in the discussion. Both were cropped for aspect ratio.

I'm sitting here amazed at your screen shots. If my meomory is any good, the Grumman was designed in 1936. But I could be wrong. #3493216Jeremy Henderson October 24, 2006
Wikipedia to the rescue! The first flight was 29 May 1937.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
The following truth is one of the core philosophies of BetterPhoto:
I hear, I forget.
I see, I remember.
I do, I understand.
