File Description:
PMDG 737 NGXu Revised Engine Metallic Texture for P3Dv4.
The enclosed .dds file will make the engine intake cowling of the CFM56-7B less shiny. The default textures from the PMDG paint kit are a bright chrome; however, many 737 engines in service have a much duller appearance. Replacing the engine metallic texture on ANY livery that you have downloaded and installed with this one should result in a brushed aluminum appearance as shown in the Before/After screenshots.
To use this file, simply copy "PMDG_737NGXu_engines_metallic.dds" from the zip into whichever PMDG 737 NGXu texture.xxxx folder that you want to modify (for example: Program Files\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4\SimObjects\Airplanes\PMDG 737-800NGXu\texture.pmdg). Be sure to make a copy of the old "PMDG_737NGXu_engines_metallic.dds" first in case you want to go back!

| Curtiss Helldiver Italian Air Force |

File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the Aerplane Heaven Curtiss Helldiver in the colors of S2C-5 MM4693 86-42 of the 86 Gruppo Antisom of the Italian Air Force, based in Grottaglie, 1952. Italy’s experience with the Helldiver was brief but interesting. In 1950, when the first post-WWII formal rearmament plan was put forward, the Italian navy identified as a priority obtaining a surplus American light aircraft carrier, with appropriate air wing. A team was sent to Naval Air Station Corpus Christi TX, where two pilots trained and qualified on the Helldiver, later practicing carrier operations aboard USS Midway (CV-41) where four more pilots earned US Navy carrier wings. In September 1952, two surplus Helldivers were presented to the Italian navy as a gift by the USA. The two planes were delivered to Naples, Italy.
Unfortunately for the Italian navy, there was still a Mussolini-era law on the books called Legge 1000 Kilo (law of a thousand kilograms) which mandated that only the Italian air force could fly planes over 2,200 lbs weight. As the result of a bizarre inter-services lawsuit, the navy was forced to abandon plans for both it’s aircraft carrier wish and the Helldivers.
A total of forty-six Helldivers were eventually transferred to the Italian air force (the two former navy planes plus a further forty-four). The Italian air force assigned them to the 86th Autonomous Antisubmarine Group at Grottaglie air base, where they flew ASW missions with depth charges. The Helldiver was not popular with the Italians…as an anecdotal example, they were housed in a disused WWII-era blimp hangar. They were viewed as obsolete and too difficult to master pilots on. The crews were also not keen on flying a single-engine type on long overwater patrols.
The Italian planes were only in frontline service for about one year. In 1953, they were replaced by PV-2 Harpoons and (later) S-2 Trackers, which were much more suitable to long-range ASW missions. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by Aeroplane Heaven.

File Description:
ALITALIA "Neil Armstrong" I-DEMA B747-400PW livery 1970 | 1981 operations, painstakingly created for PMDG B744 QOTSII v3 and P3Dv4+ simulation.
ALITALIA I-DEMA artwork is created with tremendous attention to details such as color codes and hand made custom weathered details on the fuselage to bring visual fidelity as the original aircraft in both stages of her life:
Clean look as 1970's delivery
Dirty and weathered look as end 1981 operations.
A very special Thanks to Samuel Aroca for his fantastic eye for details and historical facts about ALITALIA, and to Brian Thibodeaux for giving concession of his incredible work on weathering effects files.
