| P-51D Mustang "44-73420" N7722C |
|
File Description:
This is a repaint only for the WWII Fighters P-51D. This aircraft, 44-73420, entered the USAAF in 1945 and served with the 190th FS, Boise, Idaho, and with several ANG units. In 1958 it was sold surplus and was registered N7722C. After passing through several owners the aircraft was painted as "Miss Torque" in 1984 and was eventually shipped to New Zealand in 1993 where it operated as ZK-PLI until 2005 when it was sold back to the US. The new owner, Jack Croul, had the aircraft fully restored and in the summer of 2006 it was flying again. The aircraft is now finished in a "polished with no paint" scheme, matching the way the aircraft looked when it originally rolled out of the factory. This repaint is full of details and includes nearly all factory stencils and the "filled, sanded, and painted wing."

| Boeing B-17G "Sentimental Journey" N9323Z |
|
File Description:
This is a repaint only for the FSX Wings of Power II Boeing B-17G Flying Fortress, in the markings of the CAF Arizona Wing's B-17G "Sentimental Journey," N9323Z. "Sentimental Journey" rolled off the Douglas assembly line in late 1944, and was accepted by the Army Air Corp on March 13, 1945. Being delivered too late to serve in the European theater, the aircraft was assigned to the Pacific theater for the duration of the war. The aircraft served in the USAF until 1959 when it was put into storage. Within a few months the aircraft was acquired by the Aero Union Corporation of Chico, California and flew thousands of sorties against forest fires as a converted tanker. In 1978 the aircraft was donated to the newly founded Arizona Wing of the Commemorative Air Force, and after a local contest the aircraft was named "Sentimental Journey." The decision was made to use the most famous pinup picture of WWII for the nose art, which of course was that of Betty Grable's most tantalizing. Over the years the aircraft has been brought back to its WWII configuration, complete with all turrets, crew positions, bombay, and markings of the 457th Bomb Group. The aircraft makes on average each year an amazing 60 airshow stops nation wide.

| P-51D Mustang "Worry Bird" N951M |
|
File Description:
This is a repaint only for the WWII Fighters P-51D Mustang, in the markings of "Worry Bird," N951M, owned by Michael George. This aircraft's records show that it joined the 8th AF in April of 1945 and then returned back to New Jersey in July of 1945. Following WWII the aircraft served in a number of Air National Gaurd units before being purchased surplus by William Kelbaugh in 1958 - who literally saved the aircraft from the scrappers. The aircraft then passed through a few owners until it was purchased in 1978 by Jack Rose who restored the aircraft to WWII stock configuration and painted it as "Worry Bird." In 1990 Michael George purchased the aircraft and registered it N951M. Based in Springfield, IL, Michael George has been flying this absolutely beautiful aircraft to numerous air shows ever since.

| British Midland Airways DC-3's |
|
File Description:
Derby Airways was registered in 1959 and took over all services and aircraft previously operated by Derby Aviation. Derby Airways fleet of DC-3's reached a total of 8 for the 1961 season but one of those aircraft was destroyed in a crash in October of that year. The remaining 7 DC-3's continued with the airline well into the 60's. In July 1964 Derby Aviation announced that it would be changing it's name to British Midland Airways. The name change took place officially on the 1st October 1964. The last DC-3 was disposed of by British Midland in 1969. This set of repaints depicts the aircraft in various liveries that were used whilst flying under the British Midland name. Requires default DC-3.

| North American AT-6C/AT-6G "Double Vee" |
|
File Description:
This is a repaint only for Alphasim's Texan/Harvard. This aircraft, "Double Vee," is the only authentic, fully restored aircraft in existence that was once used by the Tuskegee Airmen. During WWII its roll was to train the Tuskegee Airmen in the methods of aerial combat maneuvering and gunnery, this coming before graduated kadets would transfer to the P-47 and P-51 as members of the 332nd FG. The aircraft, now owned by Steve Cowell, has been fully restored and painted in its original markings it wore while in service as an advanced fighter pilot trainer at Tuskegee, Alabama. The name "Double Vee" comes from the historic campaign waged during World War Two for African-Americans. It stood for a double, uncompromised victory - a victory abroad against the Axis powers and a victory at home against prejudice. Repaint is based on Alphasim's paintkit.
