NZFF

NZ hasn't seen this much activity, probably, EVER.
What a nice break from the Real World!

Ardmore was the one that would wrap the package for me.
Many thanks Ron and fellow creators, for the hard work.

Just what my old airplane needed, I have stood there and spectated many a time.



It's all there, and sits very nicely in the latest flavours of Auckland



So good.

You're not wrong Charl...amazing, Robs shot as well.

What better way to view Ardmore than upside down in a Spitfire.

Except it's not a Spitfire...

Haha yes, one look at your avatar and we understand...

I am deeply embarrassed by my earlier screenshots, as in my haste I did not load the ground textures!
Here's the real deal (With an inverted Curtis P-40N):





There may be a tree out of place somewhere, but I doubt it:





Epic scenery, there will be so many hours wasted enjoyed to the full here.

Great shot, especially with right textures...

Good god how did I get that so wrong?????
I guess to be fair I was really looking at the scenery.......

I spent some of the best years of my life at this place. Fantastic friends and memories where made here.

Time to visit Spec-Savers

The scenery looks fabulous!. Had a wee hover taxi around in the Guimbal last night and there were loads of other live players doing circuits. I feel one of Dave's NZFF MP sessions coming on based there?

Back in the day Ardmore used to have in excess of a 1000 movements a day. It was not uncommon to have 12 aircraft in the circuit.
I believe that it was once the busiest airfield in the Southern Hemisphere.
