File Description:
A repaint for the Aerosoft PBY-5 Catalina in the colors of G-PBYA, originally ordered for the Royal Canadian Air Force as a Canso A amphibian, basically equivalent to the US Navy PBY-5A. It was built by Canadian Vickers at Cartierville, Quebec and was allocated their constructors number CV-283 before adopting the RCAF serial 11005. It was taken on charge by the air force on 27 October 1943 and initially saw service with 9 (Bomber Reconnaissance) Squadron at Bella Bella on the British Columbia coast between Vancouver and Prince Rupert. It was on their inventory from November to the following August. 9 Squadron had been based at Bella Bella for some time prior to the arrival of Cansos, having operated Supermarine Stranraers there. The Cansos were mainly operated from water despite their amphibious undercarriages and were used on day and night patrols, looking out for enemy submarines. By mid-1944, the threat of a Japanese invasion of Western Canada had receded and it was decided to disband 9 Squadron and close the station at Bella Bella. The Cansos, including 11005, were flown to Alliford Bay in the Queen Charlotte Islands, also in British Columbia, and transferred to 7 (BR) Squadron in August. The job was the same – anti-submarine patrols mostly – and 11005 remained with 7 Sqn until it too was disbanded on 25 July 1945. After a post-war career as transport and waterbomber, it was acquired by Plane Sailing in 2004, restored and repainted as a OA-10A of the USAAF. It is based in Duxford.

File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the Supermarine Spitfire Mk.IX by Real Air. It shows Spitfire IXc MA504, which was one of three Mk IX Spitfires that was converted for high altitude interceptions by No 10 and 41 squadrons SAAF, while based at St Jean and Idku, Egypt. The other two aircraft were MA792 and MH946. They were stripped of paint and machine guns, and all other equipment that was not deemed necessary to reach high flying Junkers JU-86 bombers that flew in excess of 40.000 ft. MA504 is reported to have reached 47.000 ft with wing commander Dereck 'Bill' Kain at the helm during a test flight. After a succesful interception of a Junkers, the Germans stopped the high altitude flights. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by RealAir.

File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for The Boeing KC-97 by Manfred Jahn and team. It shows Boeing C-97G Stratofreighter 52-2718 c/n 16749 N117GA. Originally built as a KC-97G, it was operated by the USAF until 1977. It was converted to a C-97 and flew with an unknown group until it was seized by US Marshals in 1888. It was then auctioned off to Grace Air of Texas, named "The Spirit of Corpus Christi" , and operated on salmon runs in Alaska and humanitary missions to Africa until 1996, when it was bought by the Berlin Airlift Historical Foundation. It is currently being restored to airworthiness, and is painted as the 'Angel of Deliverance'. Paint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by Manfred Jahn and team.

| Cessna O-1A Birddog, RNoAF #610, Winter Camo |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
The files contained in this zip are intended for the SibWings payware Cessna O-1 Birddog for FSX. These textures are intended for version 1.2 of the aircraft.
The aircraft as depicted, served with the Royal Norwegian Air Force in the mid 80s. Colour-scheme worn is Olive Green Field Colour upper surfaces and Grey Field Colour (appears a bit tan) lower surfaces. Last 3 figures of the US Army serial number appears on the vertical tail. The aircraft has white patches applied on upper wings and fuselage for excercises during the winter season in Northern Norway. This camouflage was applied by brush and I have tried to replicate that. I also created new external bump maps using the method described in the FSX SDK. Instrument panel textures are also custom made.

File Description:
This is a repaint of the Airlift International DC-8-54F in 1976 colors. The payware DC-8 50-70 pack by JustFlight is needed for this repaint. Airlift International acquired one DC-8-54F from Riddle Airlines, N108RD, which is depicted in this repaint. In 1964 Airlift purchased another DC-8-54F and these two aircraft both soldiered on for the airline up to 1981. There was one other DC-8-54F which was purchased by Airlift in 1979 and utilized by the airline from 1979-1981 and 1982 to 1992 when it was sold to Fine Air. All up, three DC-8-54Fs served Airlift over the years. This repaint was tested on FSX-SE. It should work on FSX & P3D v1-3. Textures are DXT5 dds.

| USAAF B-24D "Kate Smith" 98th Bomb Group, 9th AAF |
|
File Description:
"Kate Smith" 42-40991 was a B-24D-120-CO which came off the production lines of Consolidated, San Diego. The art work depicts American Singer Kate Smith's theme song, "When the Moon Comes Over the Mountain". This ship was flown by the 1Lt James A Deeds to Ploesti on August 1, 1943. While taking part in the disasterous 98th BG attack on the Astra Romana-Phoenix Orion refinery complex, it took a direct hit in the cockpit area over the target at an estimated 250 ft of altitude. The aircraft caught fire in the bomb bay area and exploded mid-air. Miraculously, the copilot, 2Lt Clifton Foster was blown clear of the disintergrating aircraft and was able to open his parachute. Taken prisoner, he was the only survivor of the ten man crew.

| BAe Harrier GR3 XV744 233 OCU RAF |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is my rendition of XV744 with tailcode "3K" flown by 233 OCU , RAF Wittering circa 1990 .XV744 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.
