..I apologise for having offended you, I agree with your photographer's
hat's opinion, my inspiration was the IMO, rather amusing historical and
journalistic context of the screen shot and my "need" for an excuse to
make a 1.9.1 version of it. ;o)

..I agree it looks like a FG screen shot, and I would even say so under
oath, and even that I cannot think of any other flight sim capable of
making _that_ screen shot, but I cannot prove it indeed is a FG screen
shot, so I asked the question.  Either way, it is subject to copyright  
and the fair use clause.

..does FG-1.9.1 print exif style headers in the screen shots???
FG-1.0.0-3+b1 does not, AFAICT from my wee coupla tests now.

..only up to Debian's 1.0.0-3+b1, works nicely with the 1.0.1 
scenery, so if you need evidence, name a plane and a place and
I'll mail you a nice big irrelevant screen shot. ;o)

  Scenarios always come in sets of three: 
  best case, worst case, and just in case.
