A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category FS 2004 Military skins - World War II

Description: 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 encoutered a large group of Messerschmitt Bf110 fighters. After he ran out of ammunition, his engine was hit by one of the Bf110s. Garde had to chrash 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 beautiul 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.

Enjoy,

Very nice Huub!
This old warhorse resides in one of my hybrid GW3 installations and a new paint will be taken on board.
Thanks.
