Welcome to the NZFF September 2014 Flightsim 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 a very small amount of "real" images can be added - but the biggest majority of the image should always be of a Flightsim 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 September 1st until midnight 30th September 2014, 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 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 there is no theme: “OPEN TO ANYTHING NEW ZEALANDâ€￾ (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 A2A Simulations


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 and have their image placed in the NZFF Banner for the month.

For this months competition the prize winner can pick a download product of their choice from A2A Simulations

Thank you this month’s prize sponsor A2A Simulations.

Too subtle for me Steel. Got it eventually but obviously I'm slowing down. I would like to say that you're clever but that would mean having to admit to my fuzzy headedness! sad.gif

Ok, challenge on.... I'll take that as the unofficial theme, "Aircraft and location are the same" -- do we get double points?



(I will probably change this down the track...)

If there isn't, then I'll make it my life's work to build one.

Actually, I've deferred to you, SS, I just realised that your screenshot also shows 'a, um, plane, over a, um, plain.' Quadruple points, I can't compete with that.
