Welcome to the NZFF October 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, P3D or X-Plane) 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.
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 October 1st until midnight 31st October 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) Soon after the competition ends, a poll will open for members to vote for the best image, 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: “Single Engine fixed pitched prop GA Aircraftâ€￾ (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 an excellent prize 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 will get the prize.

For the October competition prize winner will receive the download of their choice from CARENDO

I have quite a lot of nice GA planes to use, but they are mostly twins.
Took me a while to find a single with propellor_type=1 plane.gif

This one was difficult for me... other than the Optica, the only other Single Engine fixed pitched prop GA Aircraft that occupy my hangar are the Default C172, the JF C152, and the Tim Conrad Grumman AA-5!
