Blender,
another fine job: could you let us know who/where/what?
Re how to place on the desktop, the other right click instruction is "set as background".
Thanks

John,
I knew I had forgotten something!
The picture was taken by me, as I flew past this private heliport in the west part of Mexico City, the pad is located at almos 8,000 FT AMSL, (with today's OAT that gives about a + 10,000 FT DA) and the helicopter belongs to a man who also owns a Twinstar, A109 Elite, and an EC135 that sits on a yacht somewhere in the Pacific ocean.
Performance for this helicopter around here is depressing, he can only move 4 passengers for a 15 minute flight to the factory where he has to refuel before coming back with the same 4 passengers, the Agusta Elite can move 2 extra passengers for a 1 1/2 hour flight!
