Don't wind him up now he's done it!! Thanks Jankees from another grateful customer:encouragement:

Isn't the ice-patch an addon texture?? I'm sure it's posted here somewhere as a temp before the next model and paints are released.

Recreating Historic KC-97 Flight By Israeli Air Force

Shalom and greetings all my pals,

Presenting recreation of Israeli air force's emergency KC-97 cargo resupply mission from an Israeli air force base to HE1F Fayid air force base in Egypt located approximately 23 km south of Ismailia and 69 miles northeast of Cairo during Yom Kippur war.

Yes you are reading it correctly!!! It marked the first time in history of Israel that Israeli air force plane had landed on Egyptian air force base!!! How did it happen? Israeli army forces with tanks managed to smash through Egyptian defenses, crossed Suez Canal, and landed on Egypt pushing 30 miles deep inside Egypt which created one logistical problem which was replenishment of supplies such as food, fuel, ammunition, and spare parts. Since it would take too long time for supply trucks to travel from Israel to deep inside Egypt, they decided to use cargo planes to fly all supplies from Israel to HE1F Fayid air force base that was captured by Israeli army.

Presenting the historic flight....

I just uploaded 4 more repaints of the last flying Strats.

Hawkins & Powers Tanker 97 N1365N
Agro Air HI-481
Agro Air HI-468CA
Stratolift N4580V

And here is missing info about Agro Air HI-468CA repaint I made:

Boeing C-97G Stratofreighter, cn 17026, ex 53-0244, Agro Air HI-468CA. Starts with civil registry as N4236C and was then exported to Agro Air of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic as HI-468CA. It remained operational until at least 1990 and was scrapped at Miami in 1993.

What about your cool Red Cross livery that you painted on C-97?

The upcoming HC-97G model will have a period style MD-3 ground power unit, and this will also be added to the previous models. That fire extinguisher looks too flimsy by far so I'll replace it with something more substantial.

Aharon, the Balair is also in Library (FSX Civilian Prop Skins) - perhaps you have to scroll a bit more down.

TiAr,

Thanks for reply. I never knew that Balair Red Cross livery had already been released!!

Is it Balair? I researched on Internet and could not find history of C-97 serving Balair using Red Cross livery. Can you please point me to correct websites so that I can learn history of Balair C-97 and its routes or past Red Cross mission flights?

Thanks,

Aharon

SSI01,

Famous Jankees already painted one of the IAF liveries on KC-97 that you also can export to C-97 too. You can find his IAF livery on this Australian link called http://aussiex.org/forum/index.php?/files/.

Or DIRECT download link for one of IAF liveries: http://aussiex.org/forum/index.php?...ahn39s-boeing-kc-97-israeli-defence-force-39/

I am hoping that Jankees or Sean or anybody would paint the other IAF livery with Hebrew and English words for KC-97 that I can export to C-97.

MJahn,

Thanks for Red Cross link.

Regards,

Aharon
