Dear San,
Your request brings the countryside of Holland to mind: flat and not much in it. The only thing is if you shoot in jan/feb it’s winter and the temp will be somewhere from 0 to 10 degrees. Anyway think it over if you like.
You can reach us by phone: 0031654631499 or by e-mail wmihtb@xs4all.nl
You can check our website: http://www.wmiproductions.nl

All the best,

Dear San,
When thinking about cultural or archaeological sites, Greece is definitely a good option. I can propose a wide variety of sites. Weather is not an issue, as Greece has a mild climate and average temperatures at that time of year are between 10 to 11 degrees centigrade. Of course, clearing shooting permits can be time-consuming depending on the site.
You can mail us your details and we could send you some references.

Hello San,
The weather in January February is very hot at Ayers Rock (Uluru), and the location has some permit restrictions. There are many beautiful locations in the same area of Australia that are recogniseable and easier to permit. Naturally we also have the beauty of Sydney harbour in summer at that time of year. If you are interested in filming in Australia or New Zealand, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
Regards and best wishes for your project.

Dear San
In South Africa we can offer a salt lake (just like the picture at the top of this page!). Alternately, would you consider the towering red sand dunes of the Namibian desert – just like the picture to the right of this page!!

Good luck

Dear San,

Southern Portugal has flat rolling landscapes. In some areas huge cylinder-like grain silos can be seen. There are also areas with huge wind-power plants with enormous propellers.
If this is of interest please contact me directly.

Dear San,
I may suggest Petronas Twin Tower in Malaysia as widely recognisable landmark located at the city center. You can capture full view of this skyscraper from the park next to it. Weather not a problem at all as we have an average of 23 deg celcius all year round. Just a suggestion . More details, you may contact me Ahmad Fadzil at info@filmhosting.net or visit http://www.filmhosting.net

Hello San:
Argentina might be a good option.

I can send you some reference pics right away, just let me know….
By they way,we will be in summer by the time of your shoot , so don´t worry about cold weather here!.

Daytime temperatures will be less than 15 celcius though.
Please write me to einar@pegasus.is if you want to discuss further please write me or call, +354 861 0386.

Hi,
Thanks for your posting reply to my vague request.
If there is a place with some significance where it is flat, then we may have a winner.
Basically we’d like to fly this aircraft for 15km with altitude of 20m or so….
Lower the altitude of the place, the better too.

Hi San.. Perhaps Namibia would be a good option for you – beautiful desert landscapes (Flight of the Phoenix filmed there). Let me know if you would like us to compile a website of Namibian locations.
