Good-day folks,
In sharing the great passion for flight sim, COMPUTER PILOT MAGAZINE (http://www.computerpilot.com/) recently changed owners, and publishers. With much renovation, and diligence, the crew at CPM are starting to pull chocks, and take-off. There's always a few clouds, and storms, however the promise of clear skies is straight ahead!

Independent of CPM, and as my personal effort to help promote their work thus far, I am offering a prize of a 6-Issue, 1-year subscribtion to CPM, to the winner of this screenshot contest!

RULES:

1.) 1 Entry per contestant.
2.) FSX Unedited screens only.
3.) Contestent must state aircraft, scenery, and any other visible add-ons contained in the shot.
4.) Deadline is the 31st of JULY, 11:59pm Mountain Time.
5.) I will be the sole judge, so cater to my tastes!

May the best screen win!!
And good-luck!

Joseph

I'm way too lazy for that, so I'm playing it safe, cause everybody loves boats, right? Right?

Okay gentlemen....I've looked them all over. Some real beautiful shots fellas! My hats off to everyone that entered! I didn't expect a pixel wreck, a scenic portrait, or a boat! Unique indeed! But at the end of the day, I just couldn't pull be eyes away from this 109...Congrats Greenie! Check your private message box!

wow ..lol , thank you very much .

I had a subscription with Computer Pilot magazine last year or so ago . I must admit I got confused as to what was happening at that time . I seemed to get bits but not all .

Glad to hear that its changed hands and wish the new operators every success . From what I read it should have some good interesting articles - looking forward to it and , all going well, I will continue myself with the subscription.

Thanks Joseph for your generousity and, looking at some of those shots here, I consider myself lucky

Cheers.
