NZFF

Two days on and it feels like the news still hasn’t properly set in- absoulty tragic, I just can't believe it.. My Mum teaches Year 12 at Elim, and the church is a very tight knit community so we knew pretty much everyone that lost their lives. Word is that Tom, the Taiwanese kid with cerebral palsy was found on teacher Tony's back- died trying to save his life. It was also headmaster Murry's 50th birthday on the day it happened, which I'm sure will never be the same again :( RIP to the 7 canyoning victims, and deepest sympathy to their families and friends.

Yep, pricey as all hell... but, short of purchasing either one of Stuttgart's finest (Porsche) or Maranello's highly strung horses (Ferrari) where else are you going to get that individual character along with true racing pedigree? Just as a side note, Enzo Ferrari actually drove for the Alfa works teams during the 20's and the first Ferraris were Alfas that Enzo had tweaked with in terms of power and suspension. Lamborghini made tractors for a crust originally and bought one of the first pure Ferraris. Soon he got sick of the dodgy shift mechanism in the gearbox and replaced it...

Excellent timing... 7:37 am... got his hobby sorted already then. :lol: I like the sound of Fletcher. If you can't go for something obvious, why not something slightly more obscure. Maybe name him after an aviation pioneer or someone involved in aviation now? Congratulations on the baby as well. :cheers: Anthony

Methinks it is time for a nice big cup of chill out... Debate = Cool... Personal Attacks = Not Cool... *CLOSED*

Oh right, NSF aswell

QUOTE (Kelburn @ Apr 8 2008, 06:58 PM) if you think those are funny, look at Signspotting by Lonely Planet one example: "Caution Blind Drivers Backing" "Promised Land " and many more and only for the reasonable price of . . . around $20? These are free :D

we drove past the place yesterday afternoon and the place is really well and truly gutted. Theres a write up on page 2 of the herald by the ex owner of icepak, saying the possible cause of the explosion. I go to te awamutu college, and since the wind was blowing the smoke south, i got the nice fresh smell of burnt cheese to smell all day... great fun... I feel sorry for two groups of people 1: The firefighters and the families of those injured 2: The people who live right next to the fire, some of which had their houses scorched, windows blown in, and bits of coolstore on their front lawns...

if a job is so important, lazy workers (or bosses!) can get up earlier just as easily as they can stay at work later.

I'm getting better at it and am venturing into multiplayer. Maybe a massive NZFF multiplayer match one time...

just use paint ;)

Good on ya Tom :D , promotions manager for Vincent Aviation , ya keep going and going and going :clap:

I agree enjoy FSX but keep your FS9 disks handy you will find you still want to fly in it, my system is now upgraded and I can use things like Vistaliners 737's with my paints as AI with no frame loss issues, now thats some good gaming there >nzflag<

9 out of 15 for me, some pretty good looking graphics in there... :) Alex

It looks corrupted to me, do u have a backup?

I downloaded it and tried it, and it seems to pick my yoke, joystick and rudder pedals up OK... is a little confusing, but I only played with it for 5 minutes and didnt read any of the documentation <_< Thank you so much HCP!! :clap: Me and my brother thank you!! It works great, fully customizable, and best of all.....FREE!!!!!!! Thanks again Nick

QUOTE (Trolly @ Mar 26 2008, 09:41 PM) Did you record that video above, or are you making something simular? I'm confused! :huh: My cousin (owns the Poo-lude) and I made it yesterday. You might see the Merc in the background (Camera-ship :P ) We took turns with driving/filming, I did all the driving until the tunnel :D Probably took 3 hours to film (including travel time- the scene on the country road is about 40 mins drive from the bay at the start), and about another 4 hours to edit. There will be more episodes to follow (featuring this, my mates Alfa 33 and two old trucks...
