I started with just the lead T-45 and flew a very stable large pattern from the carrier back to an overhead carrier break to a landing I recorded that flight with the FS Recorder module. I then went back on deck, loaded up this first T-45 flight and played it back as AI traffic. While doing that, I flew the same T-45 (different paint) off of the first one's left wing and recorded that flight. I then repeated this process flying right wing and flying the slot position until I had recorded 4 separate flights and their tracks. Then using the new features in V2 of FS Recorder, I played all four flights back at once, making the lead aircraft my "user" aircraft which allowed me to keep the view centered on it and take these screenshots.
It took about an hour and was actually quite a good challenge and downright fun!!
I will try to make a short video of the sequence so you can see how it turned out.
If you've never messed around with FS Recorder before, you should try it out, the possibilities are endless. Note that it will not naturally record helicopter flights but there is a bit of a workaround if you want to record them.
Here is the website where you can download the latest version for FS9/X

If any of you watched the videos in that other thread of the Thunderbirds in FSX, this is how he did it. One at a time, all by himself, with no one else. Simply amazing work!
) Anyway, what hawk or goshawk did you use Mike?
And a little hard on the landing. Make sure you fill out your gripe sheet.
