Hey! I took that picture! Lol. I don't mind that you posted it. Just glad that you kept my watermark in the photo...many people would not do that. Thanks!

What a coincedence! A buddy of mine posted it on Facebook, thought i had to share. Great photo! Proud to see the first F-35A with a Dutch roundel. I do happen to have the original color scematics of this particular bird. When i can find the time i will make a paint for Dino's new F-35 line.

Thanks for sharing the image on the web, Brandon :salute:

I was hoping you'd say that mate!
 
Well, I'm not going to comment on the real aircraft because it will get political before the end of this post, but I did get the FsX model and would love to see a Dutch repaint too!

:)
 
If there is an F-002 I'll try to get photos of it as well. I am lucky enough to live in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area and spend quite a bit of time at NAS Ft. Worth with my camera. I've photographed several of the prototype F-35s as well as some of the production birds that have been already delivered. Thanks for the kind words on the photo.

In fact, there is a F-002. It will be handed over in september (to my best knowledge). It is gonna take me a while before i'm able to create the repaints (buzy @ work). Will keep you updated with screenshots.

Hope to see more life photo's from you, Brandon :jump:

@Warrant

For me, as I know the new textures layout, it would be a quick job to do this schemes... If you have not started yet, I can do this.

Nice! I happen to live and work very close to where all these F-35 end up... Eglin AFB. Nice to see them flying pretty much on a daily basis! Have not been able to snap a photo of one yet... will keep trying!
 
This is kind of off topic but the photo I took above has been used by the largest Dutch Newspaper De Telegraff without my permission. They have used the photo on their website as well as printed it in the newspaper. They also used it in a video. The most blatant act is that for the picture in the newspaper they give photography credits to the Ministry of Defense. Some of you may have seen this article and photo from a few days ago. It's clearly the same image seen in this thread. On their website however they still show my name as the photographer. I am currently seeking compensation for their use of the photo without my permission. Just thought I would let some of you know what happened if you had maybe seen the article. They just plain stole it right off the web and never asked to use it or print it!

I saw that! Good luck though, as the telegraaf is basically the Dutch 'News of the world'or 'the sun'.... Questionable journalism at best!

The decision has been postponed so many times already... :mixedsmi: <--- Dutch politician, always turning into new directions....

With the current polls it looks like the socialist party can become big, so who knows, maybe Flankers over Dutch soil....?? :icon_lol:
