I have some great screenshots in the Gallery of Vegas at night. The strip is beautiful.

Mc Carren Intl is literally in the strip's back yard. I like to fly around at night there. Take off from one of their N-S rnwys, North prefferably and just hang a right around 1000' agl and you're on top of the strip. Can't find it? just fly towards the lights and look just off to the southwest, you'll find it.

hi chris,
may I just reccomend 'vgas2004.zip' from avsim: http://library.avsim.net/search.php?SearchTerm=vgas2004.zip&CatID=root
It's a free addon, only 6mb and includes great detail of the strip itself, many of the famous hotels and other buildings beyond!

I can take some pics for you when I go down to McCarron for plane spotting. I live right on the side of a mountain, and I can see it perfectly from my house. Give me your e-mail, and so I can send you the photos.
