Welcome to the NZFF August 2013 Screenshot Competition.

This month's rules are as follows (Please read them).

If you have any queries about the rules please PM me for clarification before posting your entry.

1)The screenshot image must consist of a screen captured from a Flight Simulator program (FS2004, FSX or P3D) and the position of the shot must be from somewhere within the New Zealand territory.

2) Some editing is allowed (if you know how to do it.) Additional images - either screenshots or "real" images can be added - but the main component of the image should always be of a Flight sim screen capture.

3) The images must be jpg and size must be at least 1024 pixels wide and no wider than 1280 pixels -- A good free resizing program can be found at http://www.faststone.org/FSResizerDownload.htm
Faststone resize how to http://nzff.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=17934&hl=
3a) No frames or txt to be left on the image. Please keep a high resolution version saved on your computer; the admin may request it from you at the end of the month to convert into a site banner!

4) Images can be submitted from August 1st until midnight 31st August 2013, with only one entry of a single image per member.
You can change your image anytime up until 1 hour before the closing time.
To change use the edit button at the bottom of your post, just delete the old one and replace it with a new one If you post comments using the quote or reply button please edit out all images from your reply or quote.

5) When the competition ends, a poll will open for members to vote for the best image, and then the winner will have a cropped version of their image appear in the NZFF banner as well as receiving the prize for the month.

6) This month's theme: "T Tails" Screenshot to include a bit of land and ocean in the same image (Please state Aircraft details and over what part of New Zealand the image was taken)

I ask all members to please patronize all our very generous prize sponsors.

Settle down, chaps - it's only a placeholder laugh.gif
The duTemple steam-powered Monoplane of 1874, chuffing around Great Barrier Island, in my FS9.
As I'm sure you noticed, the fin/rudder is completely below the tailplane winkyy.gif


OK now, let's get serious. There's a bit of a navigational blunder here - I was aiming to buzz Rob's place, not Akaroa - but it looks nice anyway. rolleyes.gif

I have to agree, lots of scope. I often wonder how Doug comes up with the topics. Over the last few months we have had bi-planes, fixed undercarriage, twin tail, and now T tails. Lots of fun trying to decide what aircraft to use. I wonder what he will come up with next.
Perhaps the one I would dread. Roto-wing !!!
