IT CAN BE AN OLD SHOT if you don’t have time to create something especially for the comp, though original entries are encouraged.  Post it in this thread, below.


3. Once an entry is submitted, it may not be changed or replaced with a different one.  This is to keep the confusion to a minimum, and to maintain forum integrity.  Entries may be withdrawn from the contest, but no additional entries from that member will be accepted.

4. The judge will choose which shot is best and tell myself as soon as possible "please try to remember"

...








5. The winner should decide on the next competition, and tell me by (INSERT RANDOM DAY HERE), send four pics, plus a short text to describe the competition and what they are looking for.






6. This is for fun,  so just post whatever seems to you to fit the rules.

Awesome theme! Cool
 

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

Good theme, but difficult for me since I tend to lean towards defualt.
But I ought to be able to get something out of it.  Since there's a carrier shot shown, I think I'll be able to get something good.

RaptorF22, I noticed while searching for the aircraft used in the cold war that the Douglas A-1 Skyraider had been used, but it didn't mention the douglas A-1H Skyraider which is what my grandfather flew, and that the CV-62 USS Independence was also used, which is the main Carrier he also flew off of.  Even though the  A-1H wasn't used and only the A-1 was, would I be allowed to use the A-1H?

Great Shot!  I just love those ones that jump out!  Good livery to match too. Wink  And very nice touch on the edges. Wink


Sukhoi!  (I think I spelled it right)  I remember having I'm pretty sure that exact thing for FS9, but then when I re-installed my FS9 due to WAAAAYYYYY too many add-ons on it, I couldn't find it again.  It was a nice aircraft too.
But now I have the model name, I should be able to find it again. Smiley

Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.

me too, but even if I can't use the A-1H, The FA-18 was used, so I can use my default FSX Acceleration one.  I'll probalby be able to get enough research done and get the shot in time. Smiley

Sorry about the late reply, school has been a bit hectic. Undecided
Yeah, the A-1 is fine, whatever you think fits!
