Yes, I'd figured out that you had one for you too. It wouldn't do at the end for you to not be willing to part with the prize, so of course you had to buy two. Anyway, it's a fine looking shirt.

simi_av8r 0 Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 ....BTW we need more entrants!!... I'm already working on my entry (well, it has to be a GOOD entry, so i'll only have this silver bullet loaded in my pistol ), but given my computer troubles and moving day looming ever closer it'll be a last minute dash to post!! Not to worry, it'll be posted in time, as sure as night follows day. Link to post Share on other sites
wisemanp 0 Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 BTW we need more entrants!! Mine will come as soon as I can find time to download the relevant aircraft, etc...but it will come!! Link to post Share on other sites
simi_av8r 0 Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Hi Mut, can i ask you to clarify a little point of head-scratching for me please? You say that the 'subject' must be RAF aircraft. Does this mean it is the main focus of the image or, as i interpret it, does the image just need to have at least a single RAF aircraft? Thanks, Simon Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,498 Posted April 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 You interpret right Simi, the scene just needs to have at least one RAF aircraft, it doesn't have to be close up study of one aircraft. Cheers Link to post Share on other sites

Dan.fAf 0 Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 Greeting! I'm from the 'old' JustFlight forum and would like to post some RAF screenshots. Here's 1 for now. Hope you like it! P.S. I'm not Oleg Maddox as someone referred to me when posting my shot of the Gloster Gladiator in the last contest thread. :idea: Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,498 Posted April 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 :mrhappy: to Mutleys Dan, a great entrance. That was me that referred to you as Oleg, not sure where I got that from :poster_oops: Cheers Link to post Share on other sites
Dan.fAf 0 Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 Thanks Mutley! I caused the confusion myself by quoting OM in my sig (at that time). I'm honored to be a part of these festivities!! Here are 2 action snaps just for fun (unfortunately it wasn't me in the Spitfire, I was in the FW190 being chased by it): Link to post Share on other sites
fighterpilot 0 Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 wow, great shots, is it IL-2 sturmovik? Link to post Share on other sites
simi_av8r 0 Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 wow, great shots, is it IL-2 sturmovik? most certainly looks like it, id guess at a merged IL2+Forgotten Battles+Aces Expansion, not sure about Pacific Fighters or the new 1946, the terrain looks a bit odd for the later releases.

Dan.fAf 0 Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 You know your IL2. merged IL2+Forgotten Battles+Aces Expansion+Pacific Fighters is the sim. Those were from before IL2:1946. wow, great shots, is it IL-2 sturmovik? most certainly looks like it, id guess at a merged IL2+Forgotten Battles+Aces Expansion, not sure about Pacific Fighters or the new 1946, the terrain looks a bit odd for the later releases.
