NZFF

Great shots Trolly. Charl - we still have some green ones. You should see the guys around a bit at the moment as they have quiet a few exercises underway.

Agreed Hunch, that Hornet is very nice. Quite heavy as you said, but a fantastic model.

Most of the clubs planes were heading out as I was approaching the airport if I recall correctly

Shes not half bad - I need to put some time aside so I can learn to fly it properly, but I have a few more planes I need to get my head around first...........

BTW guys, what exactly is a Sortie? It's the flying of a military aircraft on a mission.

hehe my bad...

Hey everyone, about the textures, the PMDG 1900D textures Mike is using are not stock PMDG textures, they were created by myself a few years back after vomiting on PMDG's Air NZ Eagle textures :S:S lol the file name is anz15.zip on or click Here to download it, or it is on avsim file name anz15.zip on or click here to get this file. I have repainted the full Eagle fleet from EAA-EAP and will upload the rest soon. ANyway, nice to be here and meet everyone! Matt Great - thanks for the skin!

Well of course the NZFF does not support illegal activity. Apart from the legalities, downloading packages assembled by guys like this has some real risk which you may want to think about. Why are they doing it? They've established that they have no particular sympathy for the rights of others, so the next logical step would be to ask, what will happen if their clever executable package gets on your computer? I strongly suspect the clever executable package was made to lure suckers into pressing "yes" when asked the implied question: "Is it OK for me to install my...

ahhh right, i managed to work out how to work the flight environment one. Very nice textures i have put together :lol:

Well well, it looks like JonARNZ has taken the crown for this month! Congratulations to him with his excellent shot and everyone else who entered :clap:

Specs as follows: Processor - ADM Athlonx2 3800+ (2 GHz) Dual Core RAM - 512 MB Video Card - Radeon x1300 (64 MB I think) I adjusted the FPS from 20 to 30 and also autogen and scenery to the max Well. I would say. Get some more RAM, and a new Video Card. FSX needs alot of hardware to run smoothly (I don't have FSX, but I know it from a couple of friends). I don't know what soundcard you have, but I have seen that an onboard soundcard can get the FPS down. So deactivate the onboard soundcard, and get yourself a new plug-in card. They often have much better quality in the sound.

Ah ok, its been a fair time since I last downloaded the pack, since then I have re-installed. When I have bandwidth to burn I may investigate further. Thanks for the heads up.

You can always count on Mt Cook to come up with some weather for the screenshots! Liked the climbout pics.... Incidentally the AI Gippslands really do scenic flights, you can follow them all the way through (sometimes literally!) the mountains, and one even puts down on Tasman Glacier, wheels or no!

Thanks Charl well the absolutley final pack is off to Lawrie for a check complete with the 2 paints and sets of flightplans. for the one you favour.4051 185 and 4052 206 hopefully i will get this out in the next couple of days (no pressure Lawrie LOL) :D stayed tuned Kiwiusa ps send me an email Charl with the ferry plans :thumbup:

Woo considering how much of the shot you had to throw away, that's pretty well resolved. Make a good banner, too.

Thanks - yes I have an ATI card - I think u pointed me to the direction of this site before Cheers

Thanks guys - Yes I should just turn of RL weather and enjoy the view - but I guess that wouldn't be realistic - I guess that is why they call NZ the Land of The Long White Cloud - next leg is a just a short hop to Tekapo. Somewhere in this trip (don't know where yet - it is a moving target) I am going to pick up a new plane and fly it back to Tauranga.

Great screenies Trolly! You have got your sim set up nicely. Fully agree about Boeing vs Airbus. I just don't trust French government and establishment types! I'm sure the ordinary citizens are fine people who don't often approve of what their government does. The fraud and corruption already exposed at Airbus with the 380 programme and being two years behind schedule with it is a worry! I still prefer the 747 over the 380 as well as the 737 over the 318 or 320, whatever they're called!

Cheers guys :D In actual fact, the Raglan area isn't that great for scenics compared to Wakatipu or the alps.
