File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the Supermarine Spitfire Mk.XIV by Real Air. It shows Spitfire Mk.XIV RM656 DL-F, which was the aircraft that Captain Jean Maridor, of the Free French Air Force, was flying on the 3rd of August 1944, when he was killed while destroying a V1. Jean Maridor was born in Le Havre, France on the 24 November, 1920. He became interested in flying at a young age. He stopped his studies to focus of this new interest. Maridor began to take many courses in flying. He obtained his pilot's licence at 16, making him the youngest pilot in France. In 1939, he joined the French Air Force and received his pilot's wings in september 1939, continiuing his training on the Dewoitine D520. He joined a squadron just two days before the French Surrender, only to receive the order to burn his aircraft. After the French surrender, Maridor left to go to England with many other French pilots, where he joined the R.A.F. After training, he began flying with the 615 Squadron on Hurricanes. He scored his first kill on the 14th of October 1941. In february 1942, he transferrd to 91 squadron, flying Spitfires, where he scored a further 8 kills, one of which was Lt Paul Galland, the brother of Adolf Galland, in october 1942.
From june 1944, 91 squadron flew the Spitfire mk XIV and specialised in shooting down the V1's that the Germans started sending over to the UK. Capt Maridor was succesful at this too, shooting down 6 of the Doodlebugs before his final flight on the 3rd of August 1944.
On this day, Maridor intercepted a Doodlebug over Rolvenden around 12:33. Flying towards the bomb, he shot at it at 12:39. Although he hit it, the bomb was only damaged not destroyed. On his second attack, he saw the bomb was heading for Benenden School, which at the time was being used as a military hospital. Knowing that hundreds of lives would be lost if the bomb was to hit, Maridor launched a final attack at 12.43. He approached to less than 50 metres to ensure he would not miss a second time. The Doodlebug exploded this time, but the wing of his plane was caught in the explosion and ripped from the body. The plane crashed beside the lake on the school grounds, killing Maridor just 8 days before his wedding. His fiancée has been quoted as saying he would not have hesitated in his attack on the bomb. He knew that many lives would have been lost otherwise.

Images related to this file:
File Description:
This repaint is for the A2A Wings of Power 3 Spitfire MkIIb and represents the Spitfire Mk.Vb BM124 LO-W 602 Sqn (City of Glasgow. Queen Salote, an aircraft flown by Wing Commander Brendan Eamonn Fergus Finucane. Known as Paddy Finucane, he was an Irish Royal Air Force fighter pilot, who was a high scoring Second World War flying ace claiming 26 victories, plus six shared and was the RAF's youngest Wing Commander in its history. He was killed at the age of 21 on 15 July 1942, when he was leading the Hornchurch Wing in a fighter "Ramrod" operation targeting a German army camp at Etaples, France. Photographs show the plane was incorrectly named "Queen Of Salote" but were later altered by scratching out the word "Of" on the negatives in an effort to correct this.

| Khalifa Airways Airbus A330-300 C-FRAV |

Images related to this file:
File Description:
Repaint for the Blackbox Simulations (BBS) Airbus A330-300 v0.85+ in the colours of Khalifa Airways (K6/KZW)of Algeria. This company operated from 1999 to 2003 when it went spectacularly bankrupt along with the rest of the Khalifa Group. The company leased two A330-300s from Canadian charter company Skyservice, C-FRAE and C-FRAV (depicted in this repaint). These aircraft were mostly used on the trunk routes to France but were also spotted in Spain and *may* have occasionally served Jeddah (Hajj charters) and Dubai.
C-FRAV was returned to Skyservice and rejoined its initial operator LTU, then Air Berlin, before spending a few years in Russia until it was scrapped at St Athan in 2017.
This is my 1st ever repaint, and is therefore far from perfect, but I think it gets the job done.

File Description:
N999MH, (Strangely, no date for when it was built) left sunny California to live at Compton Abbas Airfield, Wiltshire (EGHA) The owner, Detiger Elizabeth, (I'm intrigued by that name)a member of The Air Squadron UNA, won't thank me for bringing this up: "25 October 2003. "After a normal start, the pilot taxied his tail wheel aircraft across the grass towards the holding area for Runway 26. The weather was good with a light north-westerly surface wind. Two other aircraft were stationary, holding for the runway, and the pilot of N999MH failed to see one of these aircraft.The right wing of N999MH struck the propeller of one of these aircraft, G-AYEV." Oops!
As per usual, only download this paint if you possess a bona fide copy of Alabeo's C195 Businessliner 'cos you know it ain't right otherwise. ;-)

| Amazon´s Deadly Road |
|
File Description:
A Brazilian Air Force C-130 from SAR Squadron 504 has been sent to the Port of Máraba
where it will receive instructions to fly over road BR-230 by the river and pick up all drivers
along the road due to recently formed "Wells of Gas" which are believed to be highly toxic.
Also, an airliner crashed a few hours ago and survivors must be quickly taken to a hospital.
Many people in the area are sure that there is a "machine" in the largest gas pool!!!! some even
suggest it could be an invasion from outer space!!!!!! so the flight will take pictures of this site as
a top secret priority. All personnel will be on a week long "Secret Mission Status". You must leave
everything right away and head to base!!!!!..go man, go.

| BAe Harrier GR3 XV741 233 OCU RAF |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is my rendition of XV741 with tailcode "I" flown by 233 OCU , RAF Wittering circa 1988 .XV741 was the fourth production Harrier and took part in the Transatlantic Air Race in 1969. Modifications include panellines , rivets , squadron badge on flying suit , changed colour of helmet , changed number on GPU and added new bump & spec maps ( where needed ) .
There are however certain limitations with the texture mapping , for example the rear section of the main fuselage is only shown once in the paintkit,so the camouflage pattern is mirrored .One of the flaps is also mirrored above and below the wing,so all camouflage using Light Aircraft Grey undersides aren't shown correctly..The fuel tank has the same problem as certain sections are also mirrored.The camera was only mounted on the port side of the nose,not port and starboard.

| Lancair Legacy (N23LF) |

File Description:
Lynn Farnsworth built, with the help of with Andy Chiavetta of Aerochia, a Lancair Legacy for racing in the Sport Class at the Reno air races. He had hoped to have it ready to go in 2004, but it wasn't ready until after the race was over. It's modeled after Darryl Greenamyers race plane.
N23LF, aka 'Miss Karen II', has a modified TSIO-550 engine and twin turbochargers. The first 'Miss Karen' flown by Lynn, was a F-100 Misty FAC at Phan Rang AB, RVN. Karen, wouldn't you know, is Lynn's wife. Another case of 'name you plane after your wife and you get to keep it!' :-)
Google Lt Col. Lynn Farnsworth, he's a heck of a guy!
I trust you all have a paid for copy of RealAir's Lancair Legacy. If not, people will be round to see you!
