Capt Sim B-52...

....Just got this one, and I'm loving it (I'd love it more if they would strip off the EVS and ECM blisters and gimme some Hound Dogs....but that's for another post).

Does anyone know if there is a classic silver over white 60's Cold War reapint for this baby?

Thanks,

Kent
 
Thanks Kowalski65...

I discovered that site after going onto Capt Sim's "repaints" section...And I managed to get a few of his repaints...

Thanks!

Kent
 
Nathan makes great repaints indeed.
BTW CS said somewhere at their forum that BUFF VC is planned to be released this year, so..
 
I just downloaded a couple of Nathan's paints of the CS B-52 for future use, and they're in BMP format and not DDS. I don't have the CS B-52, but I plan on getting it...is it not in DDS paint format? Kind of strange for a native FSX plane, I would think.
 
I'm not a great repainter...

....but I MAY try to do a bare metal 1960's (with white nose and undersides) scheme...

Gotta love that Cuban Missile Crisis "ethos"....

Also found great maps of CHROME DOME routes...

Now we just need a good -135...

Hate to keep harping on Capt Sim's B-52H...

....but I just located, downloaded, and installed Christoffer Petersen's Real Deal B-52 sound pack.

OMG!!!! All I can say is, "The Commie Russians are Coming, The Commie Russians are Coming!"

Flew a CHROME DOME mission from Beale to Thule, to Ramey this afternoon. AWESOME, baby! As a SAC-um-sized guy myself, this is GREAT flying. (so I increased the sim rate to 16X for the long legs-- gimme a break!!!).

All I can say is bring on the -135s (both KC- and EC- ABNCPs) please!!!!

It's a fragile and fine line between sharing my personal niche in aviation, and rubbing it in. I am trying to share, rather than rub, but don't always pull it off successfully...:salute:


....that's DAMN nice scenery!!!! Is it payware (chuckle)?

Kent

Oh, it's Payware alright...and I keep paying, and paying, and paying...

Don't let us cry babies stop you from sharing. We are just jealous. Speaking of which, next time could you give us some pictures with less haze. ;)

Nice shots! :salute:
