Welcome to the NZFF March 2012 Screenshot Competition.

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

1) The screenshot [b]image must consist of a screen captured from a Flight Simulator program[/b] (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.
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 March 1st until midnight 31st March 2012, 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: “RNZAF 75th ANNAVERSARYâ€￾ Any NZ registered RNZAF aircraft that has been used by the RNZAF in the last 75 years and in the appropriate RNZAF livery for the period it was in service. (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.

I'll definitely enter this comp, I had a shot all lined up for last months one and then the interweb packed a sad. I'll still vote though.

One for the rules ... 485 or even 75 squadron in WWII , The first Royal New Zealand Air Force unit was grouped at Feltwell in January 1940 No.3 group , April that year was to become No.75 squadron NZ , off all things was the first Commonwealth unit in Bomber Command .

The groups were posted not on NZ shores but created , for the 75th Celebration maybe a lapse with being over NZ territory simply for the World War aircrew .

To save any further confusion please note rule 6 has been amended to now read
“RNZAF 75th ANNAVERSARYâ€￾ Any NZ registered RNZAF aircraft that has been used by the RNZAF in the last 75 years and in the appropriate RNZAF livery for the period it was in service.
