I'd love to be able to tell a story that well.

Instead of running the replay, I always play with external camera on. Of course that breaks the action, so that is no good solution either. Can you get in the replay and move the camera around to get the shots you want, just as if the game were playing? That's an area for improvement in the next subsim release, whoever does it. Bragging rights count for something, but actual documentation ices the cake. Great pictures! Great story! Congrats!
