RNZAF 75th Anniversary MP Show, Just an Idea (at the moment) Options

[lowflier]

With it being the year of the RNZAF's 75th Anniversary I got thinking... And thinking.... and thinking.... and then stumbled across and idea, why not have a virtual anniversary celebration, with any RNZAF painted aircraft of models from throughout the 75 years. I understand this kind of thing takes alot of time, effort and practice, and as I said Its just an idea at the moment. With help from NZFF veterans and experts alike I reckon we could make this a memorable virtual event.


So anyone keen?

The one requirement is all having the same model , and has to be payware required as well , Start the list with the .. and FSX , have to be made easy , most all will have the Harvard , i guess this could be chalendge but get it right perfect .

Tiger Moth , Ants will fil the gap well
Harvard , Alphasim , freeware not an option
Devon , Derek Palmer


above a good example off the requisite , so time is now really quite short but i,m in help and direct , Gavins FSX Ohakea would be ideal .

Everyone involved is and required to have the listed payware ( still to be listed ) , but now the biggest thing is to get all together as well and that can be the biggest headache .

Alrighty then, I'll list some of the obvious ones.
NZOH sounds like the venue.

C-130-Captainsim of Course
P-3K-KBT Team
757(do we need this?)-Captainsim or QW?
CT-4E-Nigel Booths Freeware model
UH-1-Aerosoft Nemeth or shall we go freeware?
A-4Ks-Frat or RAZBAM?
Blunty-Nigel Booths
Seasprite-Alpha of Nigel Booths
DAK-Default.
Andover-Rick Pipers
Sioux-Not too sure
Macchis?-I've packed up one that doesn't look too shabby.

Think also need to go more historic with the aircraft .. after all it is 75 years

[lowflier]

To cover the WW2 period we could have

P-51 in TAF colours-Which Model??
Corsair-A2A <Dibs on flying that
IRIS Kittyhawk
A2A or Real Air Spit
And which Hurri?

Sounds like fun Dan. So are you talking about a virtual airshow kinda thing with formation flying etc? (who was it that tried to organise one a year or two back, did it happen?)

I have a bunch of the machines mentioned (not a P51 or Harvard sadly), just a suggestion, to make it easier for prospects you should keep editing your original post in this thread with the reccomended models once there's consensus.
(speaking of which, I'm rooting for the QWings 757, coz I dont have the CS one in FSX

No i did,nt , simply because the collection , the costing in people not having the models , i joined an airshow , using freeware .. looked bloody horrible screen shot wise , only months after FSX was released hence the reason i mentioned the required payware.

[deeknow]

Yeah, wasnt you I was thinking of Ian, last year there was another dude that tried to kick one off. Martin somebody???

[Ian Warren]

Been a couple Dean over the times , both without sorta realizing that some people cannot afford all the addons , all previous type of shows did fail for that very reason .

I really like that idea, it also takes off a bit of the pressure regarding rehearsals and such. And I agree completely, a new Wigram would be great!

You won't quite get a WWII Wigram , the city has changed so much , for the good and the bad , it dose look a little war torn and heck the bombers-(earthquakes) are still attacking , cant tell if they are Heinkels or Doriners , but you can get an operational Wiggy , maybe we would catch some off those bombers on the return trip .. for you CHCH city folk , our AI-Radar is not working so well , sits up on that hill in Cashmere - so we don't see the carnage till the bombers are flying home .... you fighter pilots may have to sleep in your plane if we are to catch em .
