This file contains alternative textures for the excellent Bloch MB.152 by the Restauravia team. This model can be found here: http://restauravia.fr/html/creations_fs2004.html
The textures depict the aircraft flown by the French ace Capitaine Georges Garde on May 14, 1940. During a patrol to cover Dinant (Belgium) his unit encountered a large group of Messerschmitt Bf110 fighters. After he ran out of ammunition, his engine was hit by one of the Bf-110s. Garde had to crash land this aircraft near Aulnoye in the north of France. He only had minor injuries and was able to return to his unit the next day. Georges Garde finished the Battle for France with 5 victories and one probable, all scored flying the Bloch MB.152.
I want to thank the Restauravia team for creating this beautiful model from an unusual aircraft, my friends from the Sim-Outhouse for their inspiration and Martin Wright for creating his wonderful DXT1 bitmap manipulator tool.
