Well, finally got the CFO (wife) to allow the purchase of a new graphics card for the pc. Here are some images I took while 'flying' on Flight Simulator 2k4.

It is a fictional, Red Dog Cargo.

I like your taste in LockMart manufactured technology :D Be sure to accessorize with JASSM stealth cruise missiles and the Joint Common Missile with triple seeker warhead, available at your local Weapons Depot :)
