NZFF

That is a splendid shot - really captures the essence of flight :groupwave: :thumbup:

Nice work OD .

About 3/4's of the way down. A Bandit had a wheels up in NZPM in 1987

I did see a 747 get off out Christchurch years back and it was a big Faaaaaaaar Ouoooooot from the observation deck, then this time last year the week the 747 was running around .. did the same and even proved how agile they are B-) tho RotoVagas would be hard pushed to park one there. I'll have another one for ya shortly too ;)

I started using PostImage about three years ago. If I upload a 1920x1080px, and say "Do not resize" it puts it in the gallery at full size, but when you look at the thumbnails (created by PostImage) for that gallery, then click on a thumbnail, the first thing you get is an image 1290 wide, with a link below for the full-size pic. So, if I am putting up screenies, I use IrfanView to resize/resharpen to 1290 wide, and upload that. For comp entries, I resize to 1280 wide. For those pics which really need the full-screen view, I upload a 1290 wide which appears in my post as a teaser,...

Orbx users will notice the difference, Orbx tend to cover a lot of the country in forest, which isn't anywhere near the reality. However this is forestry country around Rotorua, with almost 100% coverage in some areas -- far too much for the sim to cope with, so it will thin itself out a bit. One big job putting this scenery together was to differentiate between harvested and non-harvested forest -- the aerial image has huge areas which are just completely nuked, hardly a pretty sight, but this is part of the 'real' New Zealand which I'm trying to reproduce. Note, too, that photoscenery needs...

Roelio -- I will reply to your email, once I get some time this week. The Subscription started out as a way to get locals to have access to more New Zealand scenery, even if they had committed to Orbx, who have since opted out of any further NZ development. I expected 90% of Subscribers to be from New Zealand, and I've aimed it at them, but I'm really surprised to find that only somewhere between 55 and 65% of sales have been in NZ*. I am very pleased with the overseas uptake, but quite disappointed that New Zealanders haven't been interested. I admit I do this mainly for locals, who...

Only thing that nailed me to the area was that BP signage ,...... should have been an ole Atlantic or Caltex .. come to think Europe sign :P

Voting has closed And a big congratulations to splitpin by a very narrow win by one vote the other two prizewinners are CoochB and dbcunnz

Great! Always feels a bit wrong to fly something that loud over a residential area...but it's fun! Smooth as silk on the incoming .. just the launch and only last for a couple, little whiles, you get some boom box boy racers cause more rarcus than one Conkers who's gone in minutes.

Nice! I really should investigate getting this addon! It is a goodie, I don't have the TACPAC but for its cost and an aircraft carrier to boot .. SUPERB B-)

My apologies for any inconvenience caused. No apologies needed matey, it was just clicking a topic and to click again rather directly, looks much better that way. :)

Love that head-on angle on the first one! Very intimidating! I take it you're enjoying the addon so far? Happy with it overall?

More great work.

The February comp has now closed

Its the one line that come out off the blue, when Peter Graves turns around to the kid in the cockpit in the 'Airplane' .... so friggen funny :lol: I think his name was little 'Timmy' .. think Peter Graves may have been in the Rolf Harris club :unsure:
