I just saw a Kaikoura (I think thats how you spell it?) whale-watching flight review on TV.

I think it would be neat to see some animated whales swimming around in the sea, surfacing and diving every so often- if that is possible...

I do have a whale in my Kaikoura scenery, but it wasn't released as part of the Kaikoura package. Like most animations on the sim, I find it a bit cartoony. The different between a real whale and an animated flightsim whale is just too great.

Would love to see a photoreal Dunedin International Airport and Hamilton Airport also..... smile.gif BTW I notice the Godzone photoreal Taieri scenery from avsim doesn't include the photoreal Taieri aerodrome although it is pictured on some sites....can you download the Taieri aerodrome scenery from anywhere?

The Taieri aerodrome was released on the Godzone discs only, from memory.
Taieri didn't exist in FS2002, which made it ideal to model, but Microsoft did decide to add just this one NZ airfield to FS2004. This makes mine incompatible with FS2004 until I can remove the default airfield.
At the moment this isn't a priority until I get on to Dunedin International. Dunedin was going to be 'Real New Zealand' disc #5, but other commitments mean that it keeps going to the back of the queue.
The timetable now is something like this: (don't quote me, it is subject to change, and does so at least twice a day...)
Wanaka/Tekapo -- this month sometime;
Wellington International and City -- 8 weeks after Wanaka release:)
Hamiltion and one other (thinking Gisborne at the moment) -- late August
Auckland International -- December

Somewhere in there hopefully will be Ardmore, and maybe 2 more regionals.
Dunedin will be a priority next year.

As I said, though, this will probably change. Commissioned jobs get priority -- commissions normally mean paying a fee to jump the queue.

It would be great to see Gizzy, especially with an animated train across the railway that crosses the runway there!

Pauanui Beach ... In photo-real


It has already been done as part of the now discontinued payware Godzone magazine, which included the whole Coromandel area.

Here are some shots of Tairua and Pauanui for you:

Heres a shot of Pauanui I took as part of a series of shots NZTG-NZAA a year or so ago. I figured that the Tairua Paku Vista looked better from the air, rather than the flat expanse it looks from alongside in FS dry.gif

I said I wanted Hamilton! So I went and made my own. tongue.gif cool.gif Available at AVSIM right now, and at Flightsim.com later, Hamilton is just a fill-in scenery until Robin can get his finished. It's just the terminal, but it does make a difference for those who fly commercially into the airport.

Enjoy!
