As Always   - All participants are ONLY allowed 1 image if you post more than one - ONLY the first entry will be judged and the others deleted.

 

Users are allowed to change their posted image up until the time frame allowing you to do so expires.  If you fail to post an image based on the theme of the month, it is very likely that the image will not be considered during "judgment day".

 

This a multi-sim platform for your "FLIGHT" images as we welcome Prepar3D, MSFS 2020, X-Plane, DCS, Infinite Flight and even AeroFly images.  

 

 

Good Luck to ALL.

Wow. And I thought, the very very very famous aerosoft screenshot contest is dead. Somebody brought new life into it.

 

May I ask one question?

 

Open for everyone, msfs 2024 (?!), xp11, and down to p3dv4.5, as I understand the requirements.

 

But this is Norway as you see it. Can you reveal the platform which you've used for this quite brilliant shot, p3dv6?

 

Thank you for reviving the screenshot competition, which is a good old (!) aerosoft tradition.

 

And let me see if I'm good enough to participate again...

[Ruhrpilot07 10]

Well. I was urgently lookin for snowfall, but my new favorite winter destination didn't quite cooperate...

 

Everything I found was, ... 29.71 inHg, minus 2°C, 220 with 8, overcast 300, and no precipitation.

 

This is rwy 21 EFRO Rovaniemi Intl airport, and I'm comin in good and smooth, only a little bit too high on the glideslope.

 

a/c type: Rockwell Commander 114 .

The platform for the image in question P3D4.5.  Regarding the screenshot contest it was never dead, just that depending on the IRL workload I may not get around to posting a monthly contest. 

 

We welcome All entries as we enjoy seeing the talent among screenshot participants.... Creativity options are endless.

Wow! p3dv4.5? Really?

 

That's exactly the platform that I have used for my EFRO Rovaniemi Intl picture, to participate here in the December Contest!

 

Astonishing, what such an 'old' platform ... (the 4.5 was published back then in ... 2019?) is good for, assumed that you use

 

rather a quad core cpu (like me) than a dual core cpu .

 

And who on earth today would come up with dual core cpus. Definitely not me, but people who think that they can sell an OLD digital version

 

of my home airport. Read these sys reqs and laugh, together with me:

Back on topic.

 

Thanks for the fast info, so, what do we say, do not update to p3dv5 all too fast, if you own alot of orbx for v4.5 ...

 

Dear greatings and, Guten Rutsch as we say here on EDDL, Lohausen Intl airport.

 

PS: Yes, I've seen that between October 24 and December 24, there has been a little gap in the screenshot competition history.

 

Well. I don't yet own the reputation again that I owned when I became an aerosoft customer back then in the year 2010.

[Which should've been 'a green zero', as far as I remember.]

 

Otherwise I'd say, let me host the January 2025 contest. I've won it once (!), I know how to distinguish bad entries from good entries. And you could go on holidays for four weeks.

 

But not with minus14. That simply does not fit to almost 15 years of voluntary engagement.

Congratulations to Capt. Picaso (edetroit) for winning the December Screenshot contest.  This image captures the theme quite well - Turboprops Rule!!! - LOL
 - operations in poor visibility
 - visibility of the smoke trails from the engines
 - a faint capture of the buildings and parked aircraft in the background
 - nothing does it better than a turboprop 

Email to follow shortly.

You've won the contest! Dear congratulations.

 

So,  I also tried to participate with a propeller, but obviously too small, not four engined, but single engined...

 

But, now that you've won, let me know, it is a four engined turbine propeller, and I know that a beautiful bird like yours is included

when you buy p3dv4.5..

 

Lockheed C-130H Hercules, 4 four-bladed propellers (definitely not six-bladed)?

If that's true, then I'll bite myself a little bit into my ass. Because I've also seen the virtual Cockpit of a C-130, as an owner of p3d...

 

But you're the one who has made a beautiful landing of it.

 

And now, the winner gets... a warm handshake?

 

I can say, when I have won the aerosoft Shaun Fletcher screenshot contest back then, that was a little bit different...

Hello,

 

I am taking off (not landing) an Antonov An-12 in FS2004.

 

My choice of prize will be more AES credits.

 

Regards

One of the things to bear in mind with the screenshot contest is that depending on the theme things like creativity of the image and or the story behind the shot go into the decision making for the winner.  I will agree the contest is a bit different from the good old days when Shaun Fletcher hosted.  However running a theme base contest does provide some stunning images but it would appear that most folks a just interest in posting a basic shot, which is doable here as well when there is an "Anything Goes" month.
