C-47 (FS9) uploaded

"i think i may have gone and overdone it a bit.... :icon_lol: "

One can never have too much dirt. Ask any farmer.:icon_lol:
 
ok think i've got the right amount of dirt to make it look used but not abused :icon_lol: just the aft section to go
 
A little something I've been working on:

Ex USAAF 9th AF 42-5673. Served as a freighter for LOT until 1959.
 
Here's my repaint for the C 47
i know the font isn't exactly right, but as close as i have
if anyone likes it, i can upload it
 
ok guys nearly there now... sorry for poor JPEG quality, had FRAPS set to jpeg not BMP as usual... gotta tone the exhaust staining down a bit though :icon_lol:
 
i'll have to remember how to upload it...lol
i never had heard of Duggy until i found a pic and liked it

I saw it (or is it "him") once at a airshow.I stood in front of it looking at that smile.Reminded me of the old PSA airline smiles.

ok guys i just uploaded the BFU scheme here for you, comes in 2 flavors.... Clean and 'mostly-clean' 0200GMT here and i'm needing my sleep, you guys'll have to be my eyes on this one till i can figure why my FS9 keeps saying "NO i won't load till you've slept" to me...
 
Thank you for the kind words.

Here is SP-LCF on the tarmac at the old Gdansk-Wrzeszcz airport awaiting some LOT lettering. Apparently LOT used a few camouflaged C-47's as freighters/airliners right after the war.
 
Duggy me please! Very nice job - thanks in advance.
