"The plane landed softly in the water and was intact, floating right side up, Boderland said." - Article I read didn't actually say whether there were any fatalities? Do you know if there was Oliver?

John that last shot looks amazing. I was wondering how long it was going to be before someone made a C47 type repaint!

Nice shots Edwin! Well done on the repaint! Oliver what car is that!? I thought pop up headlights are illegal after 1998 in cars?

Ah, the floats missing from the paint kit is a slight omission on my part. Sorry about that.. What I would suggest is you do in the mean time is open up the float png map in Photoshop (or Photo Paint, whatever you use). Then add in another layer and set that layer to multiply and paint in that layer. That will give you all your colour as well as showing the imperfections and dents that are already there! Theo

As Goran has said, it couldn't be done until a newer version of X-Plane is out. They will come soon though. Its only a 30 minute job.

Cos lights are for night time

Great shots. Does everyone realise you can turn off the gauge lighting ?

Im rocking an i7 with a GTS250 and i'm getting round 30 FPS

Looks great! One piece of constructive I have is that the domestic terminal is WAY to tall. About 2x too tall The airbridges should be coming out of 2nd floor, not the first. But that's just me being a picky little ass . All in all, a fantastic effort. I think a custom runway wouldn't go a miss either. PM me if your interested in that!

Ha that reminds me of when I met a girl from Invercargil. I asked her why did she sound American? What I heard in response was, "cos we roll our arse". After much confusion I finally worked out she said "we like to roll our r's". Fail.

Ha Glad your enjoying it. The north Island has some bad accents. We talk reasonably normally down in christchurch. Had all the accent shaken out of us. YES GINGER BEER ICE BLOCKS. Discovered them about 2 weeks ago. Was amazing. Did you go to Waikikamukau . Andy will have a good laugh at that. (If you can't straight away get it read it loud) And lastly, atleast over this side of the ditch, our wildlife don't steal our young

Oh wait, there one goes again.

Well done. I looked into doing this but LINZ had terrible imagery of Christchurch. Also just wondering how your going to approach the new airport? It looks like you've done it but its continuously getting redone. Are you going to put all the new domestic terminal in? I love how the roads line up! Those roundabout are so much fun to drift around (Yes I've done it multiple times)

I love you guys too! . Goran is nuts sometimes. We can all attest to that with his modeling.

PS3 is a better console and its graphics are slightly better. Xbox has better games on the whole. (Forza 4 kills GT5 so don't even try that arguement on me!) Xbox is a lot cheaper. Xbox has a better sized controller for most hands. I went Xbox because of these points but might go for a PS4, next generation.

Are we there yet?

Looks freaking fantastic Hylan. Love it!

Richie McCaw. He's the captain of the team thats gonna win the Rugby world cup . All I can say on DC-3 front is that i'm definately not looking forward to UV mapping that .

Stop hating on Celine Dion.

Well there's still the alpine fault to go which is 300 years overdue. Scientists are saying it may the largest recorded earthquake ever. Don't let that discourage you though chris. If you live in Auckland you'll be fine. And if your gonna live in Christchurch, your pretty safe. We've gone through our crap

So it was the 1 year anniversary of when things started shaking round this place. Got looking at some video's that were on youtube that I thought i'd share... These were from the 6.3 aftershock we had in February. And for those of you who are wondering how a 6.3 do the damage that a 7.1 couldn't. It's because a general earthquake shakes on one axis. X Y or Z. However every axis shock. This resulted in a earthquake that was stronger than the one they had in japan. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nfy6W0uHGNM (someone can embed them for me if they like, I gave up on trying after 10 minutes)

It's a payware convert by Imagine Simulation. Thats why the link is dead.

I just wanna say thanks Simon! I was getting excited and then NOTHING...
