There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Wow! Another beauty!
It seems that you mastered the dc6 paitkit!
Hardly mastered. There are some un-avoidable places, where the mapping is such, that I simply cannot fix. By the time I'm done with a livery for it, I've worked with around 50 layered textures. It can get a little confusing, but I'm sure everyone will appreciate the extra skins.
Thanks for the support!

Information and background for DC-6B G-SIXC, Douglas Serial Number 45550/1032, previously N93459.
Starting as an air taxi operation in 1969, then known as "General Aviation Services", the name "Air Atlantique" was adopted in 1977. Starting charter flights with the Douglas DC-6, the group eventually located to Coventry Airport, United Kingdom in 1985. Air Atlantique soon incorporated training facilities, engineering shops, and airial reconnaissance.
Air Atlantique operated G-SIXC, which was aquired in 1987 as a freighter.
In it's prior life, it was registered as N93459, and operated as B-1006 with Southern Air Transport, then with Trans Continental Transport. This aircraft was once painted in Air France colors, fictiously representing a DC-4 F-BBDG for the French movie "Une Femme Francaise".
Today, G-SIXC is at home again, in Coventry. It has been refurbished, and made into the "DC-6 Diner". Seating 40 reausteran guests, they can enjoy lunch or dinner in the cabin of a transatlantic prop-engine plane, with waiters summoned using the call buttons above seats. A Cocktail bar is also on-board G-SIXC.
Have fun Guys!
