Sorry for those guys posting here regulary, but being registered a tad too late, but you have to understand, that with all the trouble we had last month, such a decission was urgently needed. Practice a bit, take some shots, compare them to the finalists shot, so that you can take a good start, when you are allowed....

Dave, I love you, and the other judges.... Great theme, It

I was also thinking about a model i already have downloaded.

A B35 CLicky for plane

The first flight of the XB-35 wasn't until June 25, 1946.

Hmm, here's a query for the contest organizers:

"To qualify for this month's theme, your shot must include an aircraft of your choice that was used during WW II."

Strictly speaking, that would include a Tiger Moth being used for local freight delivery in Madagascar in November 1939.  It would have nothing to do with the war itself, but it was "used during WW II" so would it qualify?  Or does it need to be a plan
that was directly involved in the war?  

YES!!

Any Prop Driven Plane used in the WW II era!

Remember scenery, lighting, weather, angles...

The field is OPEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!  ;D

No, it's just that WWII Aircraft made me think of actual warplanes.

Thanks for clearing that up!

"Open only to SimV forum members registered before April 1, 2006. "
That means I can't be on the contest :(



That is an error & needs to be changed. Sorry.
