File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the A2A WoP2 B-17G in the colors of B-17G-35-BO 42-32076, the former "Shoo shoo shoo baby". In 1968, the ancestry of F-BGSH, an old B-17 languishing in derelict state on Creil Airfield in France, was discovered by the Australian aviation historian Steve Birdsall, who notified the USAF museum that this was a combat veteran that had flown operational missions, in contrast to most other surviving B-17's. Following negotiations, the B-17 was donated to the US by the French Government. Interestingly, its Swedish heritage attracted interest from Sweden as well, but nothing came of this. The aircraft was disassembled at Creil and trucked to Frankfurt and flown to the US in 1972, where it arrived, packed in 27 crates. No plans or funds for restoration were present at the time, but in 1977, Mike Leiston, a technician at Dover AFB contacted the museum about the possibility of restoring one of the museum's aircraft by volunteers at Dover AFB. With project approved, 42-32076 was transported to Dover, with the aim of restoring it to a stock wartime B-17G. Upon arrival, Paul McDuffee, who had flown her for 13 missions, was present, and the reunion was clearly an emotional one as he commented "I've just got to go over and kiss her", which he did.
The restoration continued to 1988,and after some 60.000 ma hours, "Shoo shoo shoo baby"took to the skies again for the first time on 11 september. On 14 october 1988, she flew for the last time, to the USAF museum near Dayton, Ohio, where she can still be seen. The main difference with her wartime looks is the fact that she currently sports an olive drab camouflage paint, which was necessary due to all the metal work needed to bring her back to a stock B-17G condition. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by A2A.

| Iris F-16D NSAWC 'TOPGUN 04' & 'Navy 07' Repaint Textures |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
These repaint textures are for the IRIS F-16D and depict US Navy NSAWC Aggressors "TOPGUN 04" and "NAVY 07" in the blue splinter camo. Each jets' paint scheme is slightly different from the other and these repaints reflect that. For instance, the camo pattern is slightly different between 04 and 07 in the left-rear section, and the markings/decals on 04 are all grey, whereas 07 has the multi-colored low-viz "splinter" markings. I customized the wingtip missile rails to look more realistic when empty in the "Clean" configuration, and repainted the engine nozzle to look like the Pratt & Whitney engines on the real jets. I also modified the weapons texture file so that the AIM-9's appear all-blue like they do on the real jets, and the GBU's and LGB's will be "dummy/inert blue" as well. Plus, since the NSAWC pilots wear either Desert Tan or OD Green flight suits, I included textures for both.

textures only for Massimo Altieri g91y. textures 32 st by Massimo Grassi
The Fiat G91Y was a reconnaissance and ground-attack aircraft produced by Italian company FIAT as an evolution of Fiat G91.
The first flew took place in 1966. It was a complete redesign, but the major difference was that G91Y installed 2 engines,
in order to increase the power and the capability to survive to damages during war operations.
The single Bristol Orpheus turbojet engine of G91 was then replaced by two afterburning General Electric J85 turbojets which
increased thrust by 60% over the single-engined variant.
Structural modifications to reduce airframe weight increased performance further and an additional fuel tank occupying
the space of the G.91T's rear seat provided extra range. Combat manoeuvrability was improved with the addition of automatic
leading edge slats.
Flight testing of three pre-production aircraft was successful, with one aircraft reaching a maximum speed of Mach 0.98.
Airframe buffeting was noted and was rectified in production aircraft by raising the position of the tailplane slightly.
An initial order of 55 aircraft for the Italian Air Force was completed by Fiat in March 1971.
The order was increased to 75 aircraft with 67 eventually being delivered.
The first pre-series 'Yankee' (the nickname of the new aircraft) flew in July 1968.
AMI (Italian Air Force) placed orders for two batches, 35 fighters followed by another 20, later cut to ten.
The last one was delivered around mid 1976, so the total was two prototypes, 20 pre-series and 45 series aircraft.
No export success followed.
These aircraft served with 101° Gruppo/8° Stormo (Cervia-S.Giorgio) from 1970, and later, from 1974, they served with
the 13° Gruppo/32° Stormo (Brindisi) until the early '90s, as the only ones equipped with the 'Yankee',
using them as attack/recce machines, both over ground and sea, until the AMX replaced them.

File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the Shockwave World War II Fighters P-51D Mustang. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the repaint kit by John Terrell. It is for FSX only, as it contains 2048 x 2048 textures. For FS9, look for my earlier "Sierra Sue II" repaint, which contains a low res version of this repaint.
This aircract represents a J-26 of the Royal Swedish Air Force. A/C 26152 was previously 44-63675 E6-D "Sierra Sue II" of the 402nd FS, USAAF, flown by Lt. Bob Bohna. She was sold to Sweden after the war and flew with with 3rd squadron of the F4 wing, based on the island of Froson, with Cpl Sten Soderquist as her regular pilot. In 1954, she was sold to Nicaragua were she flew with registration GN91. She came to the US in 1970 and is currently owned by Roger Christgau, who flies her as "Sierra Sue II / Gul Kalle". Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the repaint kit by John Terrell.

File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the Supermarine Spitfire Mk.IX by Real Air. It shows Spitfire LF IXc OO-ARE as it looked around 1960 when flying as a target tug with Cogea in Belgium. Originally NH238, it went to the Dutch Air Force in 1946, where it flew as H-60 and H-103. It went to the Belgian Air Force in 1952, becoming SM-36. It was sold to Cogea of Ostend in 1956, and was used as a target tug until 1961 with the registration OO-ARE. It was sold to the UK, becoming G-MKIX. It was dameaged from a ground fuel explosion in Exter in 1961, but restored again. It went to the US in 1969, where it became N238V, returning to the UK again in 1979. It was last flown as NH238/D-A, but it was removed from the registry in 2002. It is rumored to be in storage at Greenham Common. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by RealAir.

| Iris F-16D VFC-12 'Saints' CAG Repaint Textures |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
These repaint textures are for the IRIS F-16D and depict US Navy VFC-13 'Saints' CAG #13 aircraft. I know the real CAG jet is a "C" model, but I figured the IRIS "D" jet would look good in black as well! I also added a BUNCH of 'custom' items to the jet to make it look more realistic. I added a BUNCH of little extras to this repaint to make it look more realistic. For example, I upgraded the wingtip missile rails for the CLEAN model, custom painted the GE engine nozzle to look like the "Pratt & Whitney" on the real jet, modified the weapons texture file so that the AIM-9's appear all-blue like they do on the real jet, plus the GBU's and LGB's will be "dummy/inert blue" as well. I also customized the pilot textures and added a mirrored/reflective helmet visor. Plus, since the VFC-13 pilots wear either Desert Tan or OD Green flight suits, I made textures for both and you can choose your preference.

| B-24 USAAF 801st PG "Black Zombie" |
|
File Description:
Wherever they were to be seen, the glossy black Consolidated B-24s of the 801st Provisional Group, based at Harrington in Great Britain, stood out like big full stops. The squadrons of this group dropped supplies and agents for the French Underground. They were known by the name 'Carpetbaggers'. This illustration is a machine of the 406th BS, one of the squadrons of the group.
This B-24H-15-CF, originally 'The Loretta Ann' of the 850th BS, 490th BG coded 'N-', transferred on 6th June 1944 to 391st BS, 34th BG coded 'I', and further transferred on 18th January 1945 to the 492nd BG 856th BS who sent it on detached service to the 406th BS(NL), NL being Night Leaflet. It survived the war and returned to the US, arriving on 11th July 1945. It was stored at Albuquerque from 10th August 1945 where it was later cut up for scrap. This particular aircraft was not a Carpetbagger per se and obviously wasn't engaged in agent or supply dropping but leaflet distribution over the Continent as the war ran down.

File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the P-51B/C model for FSX by Warbirdsim. It shows 'Old 7', 43-7061, which was the pride and joy of the 2nd FS/52nd FG. It flew over 125 operational missions, amassing 778 flying hours and shot down at least 8 enemy aircraft, without suffering a single mechanical failure. It was lovingly maintained at first by S/Sgt Vincent Reagan, and later by S/Sgts James Lynes and C.G. Jones. By december 1944, it was the oldest aircraft in the 2nd FS, and it remained so. The officers and men of the 2nd FS were so proud of 'Old 7' that they tried to have her sent to the US for a warbond tour, but the Air Force was not interested. During its long career, it served as the regular mount for Capt. Arthur Johnston (who named it Marie and flew it as QP-M), Capt. William DeForest (when it was changed to Myrtle and QP-7) and Lt. Thomas Hoover, as well as several other pilots. Repaint by JanKees Blom, based on the warbirdsim paintkit.

FSX McDonnell-Douglas MD-11F repaint textures for the real world
AV Cargo Z-BAM "Lady Liege", for the freeware SMS Overland MD-11 with
P&W 4460 engines, which you must have previously installed in FSX.
I installed the (SMS-MD-11_Dutch_Package.zip) with VC which works well
with this repaint. Also includes engine exhaust smoke coordinates which
you can add to your "aircraft.cfg" if you wish. AV Cargo, the airline
born out of the ashes of the defunct Avient, welcomes this second MD-11F,
Zimbabwe registered Z-BAM "Lady Liege", into it's fleet. The aircraft
is the second on lease from Boeing Capital Corp. Avient Aviation, the
Zimbabwe registered airline, was taken over by Simon Clarke and Neil Glover.
We have worked hard to ensure a good service on the routes we offer into
West Africa. This has given us a solid foundation to build our network
further in preparation for the additional capacity. AV Cargo is now
operating twice per week to Bamako, three times to Lagos, and has added
Monrovia to complement the services to Port Harcourt, Pointe Noire,
Ouagadougou, and Freetown, with additional destinations to be added.
Screenshots enclosed. Easy installation. Repaint by Tom Tiedman.
