GJSmith.net Presenting at the IFC

I have been invited to the International FlightSim Convention in Blackpool to give a presentation on Aircraft Texture repainting.

The presentation will be along the similar lines that I did for the VATSIM seminar here in Sydney last year with PowerPoint presentations and a couple of video to highlight some of the textures that I have done for the IFC Fleet.

Cameron has again been invited to create a special IFC video with my liveries for this event and I am pleased that he has accepted and will be turning his excellent video presentation skills to create another exciting video.

For a preview of what Cameron can do feel free to surf to the following link and have a look at some of the work he did for me for the VATSIM Convention.

 International FlightSim Convention
9/10 July 2005 - it is getting close now
          

IFC 2005 will be even bigger than IFC 2004 and again will give a full comprehensive view of flight simulation/aviation. Software & hardware companies will be offering and demonstrating flight simulation products galore from pilot supplies, airline careers, models, virtual airlines, flying schools and offering some great deals. From full size simulators and a full program of informative seminars, the list is endless. IFC 2005 will take place over two days, 9th and 10th July. And will be located at the Norbreck International Hotel and Convention Centre, located 10 minutes away from Blackpool International Airport and offering direct flights from London, Stansted, Dublin. Commencing in March 2005, daily flights from Girona, Spain direct to Blackpool. IFC 2005 is only 40 minutes from Manchester International Airport making the Convention very accessible from anywhere in the world. Microsoft is the official sponsor of IFC 2005, and we can announce that there will be one or two big surprises in store that you just can't afford to miss.

This incredible convention is being held in Blackpool in the UK and now has over 100 stands booked by organisations within the simming community.
