hey hey, that sounds very good! I lived in Blenhei and it's perfect area for VFR's. And love Windytown as well. Usually I fly Mooney Bravo, Piper Tomahawk and Beech1900D. We can choose a common aircraft though, what we could download and use prior to see each other's aircraft properly. We could do it 2-3 times a week and believe me, there will be others soon.... I think most of us is looking for opporunities like this desperately. I think that the evenings after 7pm would be good. What about you? Today? :rolleyes: What's your aircraft advise ? Which server ?(Maybe 203.114.130.15)

Check out this thread http://nzff.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5444 if you're looking for company.

We also used to hold regular Friday and Saturday night multiplayer FS2004 sessions. There's normally someone on from around 2000/2030hrs.

I haven't been online much lately as it's the roar and I head for the hills most weekends at present.

More the merrier so hope to get back into it soon.

Hello world!

Yup, I'll be there as well with one of my birds (not sure yet, it'll be some slower single prop, maybe Tomahawk). To be honest I don't care if I only see factory Cessnas around me instead of your real aircrafts. It would be funny though if a Cessna would pass me by 300 knots because the real aircraft is a P51... :lol:

We could have a nice "Take around" flight in Marlborough Sounds for the turists of Blenheim ( ;) ) with a NZPN arrival in the end. Just an idea.


Oh. I almost forgot. Password?

Hey all,

This evening was amazing! It was a lot of fun and I nice conversation. I feel a bit sorry for the guys who felt too shy to come along but that's ok, we'll have a "next time" soon. I know that there is another place of this forum for the screenshots but I think it's just a good opportunity here to give some motivation. I'm not an artist just a flightsimmer so the pictures wouldn't even have a chance on the monthly competition.
I'd like to say thanks for kiwibarguy and ashtonb for the company and the atmosphere which makes multiplayer a real fun. So here are some pictures :



The beautiful Marlborough Sounds and my ugly, brown Mooney



I have some company above Wellington



On our way to New Plymouth.

Our flightplan was (actually it wasn't planned) :

Omaka, Nelson, Wellington, New Plymouth.

We started it about 8:30 and finished it a few minutes before midnight.

that was goooooood

Cheers again guys!
