VUAF 2018 is one of the world's largest virtual airshows, and will take place this year on the 20th and 21st October, live on Twitch! We were recently fortunate enough to become sponsored by VKB.

 

VKB Giveaway

This year we have teamed up with VKB to bring both Pilots and Spectators the best possible airshow experience. VKB provide some of the best quality flight simulation hardware on the market, boasting well designed, durable, realistic and aesthetic products.

 

VKB have kindly provided us with $750 worth of flight simulation equipment to giveaway:

 

  • Gunfighter Pro Mk.II ($399) | Includes either MCG or MCG Pro grip.
  • T-Rudder Pedals Mk.IV ($244)
  • Gladiator Mk.II ($99)

We have decided to giveaway the two sticks (one entry level, one advanced) in a public competition. The rudder pedals will be contested for by the solo acts performing this year. At the end of the show weekend, the solo pilot with the most votes will be rewarded.

 

To enter, visit the VUAF Website, where the application portal and a full list of terms and conditions can be found.

 

You must be present at VUAF 2018 (October 20/21) to claim your prize, shall you be selected.

Where is it being held?

I searched the linked website and do not see a location indicated.

The organization has a UK url but that's no help.

On your post: "You must be present at VUAF 2018 (October 20/21) to claim your prize, shall you be selected." It is indicated in RED.

 

Gives the impression as Joca133 mentions, you have to be there. You might want to change the wording. The terms and conditions are placed in a awkward manner, some may not go that far to investigate this.

 

Again on the VUAF web site it states: "You must be present at VUAF 2018 (October 20/21) to claim your prize, shall you be selected. " This time it is not highlighted in red. But you must search for the terms and conditions button...if you are that curious and many find that

reading the "small print" in these give-aways is usually a 10 page ordeal and must have a law degree to decipher it.

 

IMHO

Hi guys,

 

As detailed on the website, the event is a live show streamed on Twitch.tv this October. You must be present during the stream to win any prizes you may be awarded. There are no catches and the terms / conditions are clearly explained (as listed above). Information about the show can be easily found on the website and Facebook, I even posted a short description of the show at the top of this post :) If there are any other specific questions, please don’t hesitate to let me know. Good luck!

I think "you must be there means", you must be watching the stream, or logged in to twitch. The winners will be announced either in the stream's live chat, or someone will announce the winner audibly in the stream.

Windows 10 64bit, Intel i7 6700K, 32GB Corsair 2400Mhz, 970 NVMe 500Gb SSD, GeForce 2080 super, HP Reverb, VKB GF PRO, Thrustmaster Warthog throttle, Thrustmaster Pendular rudders, Windows + DCS :thumbup:
