Welcome to the NZFF September 2011 Screenshot Competition.


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

1) The screenshot image must consist of a screen captured from a Flight Simulator program (FS2004 or FSX,) 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://bluefive.pair.com/pixresizer.htm.
No 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 September 1st until midnight 30th September 2011, 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.

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

5) Soon after the competition ends, a poll will open for members to decide who has 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: Flying through the Valley’s Gullies and Gorges of New Zealand (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.
We have two excellent prizes for this month’s competition very generously donated by


The voting will take place after the competition closes at the end of the month and the winner with the highest vote and the second place member will both get a prize each.

For the September competition prize winners can pick a download product of their choice from Aerosoft add-ons only!!! (So no PMDG, Wilco, etc.)


Thank you this month’s prize sponsor Aerosoft.

Hey, I was a boy scout once complete with 'Smokey the Bear' hat. Reached the rank of Patrol Second (one white stripe on my shirt pocket) and had merit badges out the ying-yang. My three-finger salute is a little arthritic now biggrin.gif .
