Heading east out of St.Louis just before dusk withe the Gateway Arch, Busch Stadium(old ballpark), and KSTL way in the backround. Ozark still had some DC-3s
when the arch was completed back in 1965. Thanks again to all who have made the wonderful aircraft available and helped bring back one of my favorite childhood memories :biggrin-new:
 
...and another from the opposite perspective withe the Gateway Arch barely visible but the iconic Lambert Field terminal proudly displayed

 
Coming Soon!

Yes I know that Malev one should be an Li-2, but I was asked to do one for this model and it certainly does look good in those colours! ;)
 
Dave I like both versions, but I prefer the one without roundels as that is how I saw it at the Dakota fly-in, May 2006.

Highly appreciated!

I think most people know it better in the old scheme, Huub. I'll be uploading that version soon, just a bit of work to do with the alpha channel.:encouragement:
 
I'm trying not to flood this thread with multiple posts about the same repaint - but I thought I'd better alert all previous downloaders of ZK-DAK that it's now up to version 5. I sincerely hope there'll be no need for a v6!

There was an air show at Tauranga (NZTG), so I grabbed the opportunity to check a few details - version 5 (and hopefully the last!) was the result.

Here's the *real* beauty:

... and my attempt to recreate the shot:

The rear door looks OK but is fake. Purists can download v4 which didn't have it. Anyone who grabbed any of the older versions might want to update theirs to v5:

It's great to see so many superb repaints/liveries appearing for the MJ C-47/DC-3 ... it thoroughly deserves them!

Nice shots Adam, those really highlight what an accurate model the C-47 is, as is your repaint. :applause:

I can only echo your sentiments about the repaints. I now have 74 liveries for the C-47 and fly every one. They greatly add to the enjoyment of the experience.

So many thanks to Manfred, Gman, Jan Kees, Bernhard, Hani, Richard, Simon, Dave, Trucker and yourself for all the superb repaints, not forgetting anyone whose work I haven't got round to installing yet. :applause:

Cheers,


Ade
 
You repainters are the best. I have the PH-PBA for Maam Sim DC-3, and now can finally make Prins Bernhard proud with Manfred's yaw dropping C-47/DC-3. Also love the NZ and flagship versions.

And of course I will add several of the other repaints to my fast growing hangar, :biggrin-new:

Wow, DC-3 fly-in 2006..... THat;s bringing back sweeeeeet memories!
I even took a sight seeing flight in the DC -3 iI thing it was one from Hungary. Remember a dutch pilot had to assist the Pilots from the Hungary plane, as their English was quite poor. Still an experience I think of frequently.
