It is easy with a program as paintshop pro. In the menubar, you go to:
File\Import\Screen Capture\Setup

You choose your Hot Key and then you choose for capture now.

Then you start your FS (without closing PSP), maybe in full screen modus. When you see a position you want to take a screenshot from while running your FS, you simply press the Hot-Key you chose and paintshop pro should automaticly capture your screen in a nice image.

Hopefully this can help you. Good Luck!

An even better solution is FSScreen or YAFSScreen - should be available on simviation.com or flightsim.com - basically, open said programs, then press Print Screen to your hearts content. They save the screen shots (as JPGs) in a folder and you don't have to keep switching between FS and a graphics package.

Ever tried pressing on the print screen key, then pasting it into, say paint. Spares a lot of $$$, €€€ or £££ in software (depends where you live ;) )
