Bell 47 (v1.1) for FSX Updated Release

Did I miss a secret handshake along the line somewhere? Or am I just plain blind?

Where can we download this from please?
 
Oh yes... the site that doesn't work in Firefox... now where did I hide IE8?...

Give me 5... and thanks
 
AAC Sioux AH1

I'm currently doing a few repaints for British Army Air Corps (AAC) Sioux AH1 (technically the wrong model!), including Blue Eagles, Bristows, Royal Marines. Illustrated here is XT131 of the Army Historic Flight.

I need to paint the skids entirely green. Does anyone know which part of the paint kit will allow me to do this?

Many thanks.


 
Nice paint Airtrooper.

If you need any shots of a blue eagles machine let me know and I'll get some of XT242 for you.

CBris, I'm running Firefox 3.5.1 and aside from the initial screen where the black text overlaps, the rest of the site runs fine.

Yes please! That would be very handy! Cheers.

Here is a rough WIP. Lots still to do (e.g. wrong shades of blue) but you get the idea...

Here she is with [too much] smoke:

BTW, I need to have the horizontal stabiliser in light blue, not dark blue. Does anyone know where I can find this part in the paintkit??
 
Looking good so far.

The XT242 page on our website has a picture of that scheme: http://helicopter-preservation-yhpg.org.uk/

The current scheme is slightly different but I'll take some anyway on wednesday (assuming I've got time, got to move the workshop round to spray the whirlwind).
 
Excellent James, I look forward to the shots.

I'm also glad to see someone is taking care of the Netheravon gate guard. No doubt she'll be in need of some TLC?! I'd love to help out myself, but Yorkshire is quite a stretch from Dorset! Keep up the good work.

Here is another WIP. Better shades of blue now, plus pilot in blue with silver wings!

The Netheravon aircraft is under restoration off site. I'm told its progressing well although work has stopped until the Whirlwind is done (roll out day is at the end of september). It'll then swap places with '242 to recieve the same treatment.

Well if you wait a bit you can do your military paints with the right paint kit- it will be include in v2.0 which could be available later today.
