Thanks Thom! A question to the forum, does someone remember the names of the aerodromes we flew in in GAAR 2007? I like to beef them up a bit. Thank you. Urs

Hi hug, not sure which F S you fly, 9 or X. I fly X with orbx global and orbx australia, that is brilliant but costly. The airport codes for the GAAR should give you an idea of what to download to enhance your scenery.

I am unable to locate the "Torres_strait_fs2004.zip" File, It dose not show up for download anywhere. I tried to Google it, there are several forum references but no place to download it.

Thanks John. I'll update the reference on the page. Fireworks ineptly buried on other post!
I've just had a glitch in the rules page pointed out. The registration runs from 25 Jan to Feb 22 and not from 25 Feb to 22 Feb. The rules page is now updated to show the correct dates. In spite of my best efforts entries are trickling in. Thanks for the forbearance and of course the credit for this event should go to Bill, Andrew, Tom, Ed and John. I've just noticed that Bill is missing from the credits page. Will go and sort that now.
