As always outstanding repaint. Your are true master repainter
 
Notice one little issue with the brakes. They are touchy and if applied a little too hard the plane will flip over (upside down).
 
Doing some artwork for one shown above. I couldn't find a decent image to just lift and use so this is a wip.

Finished. . . .as far as I'm going at least. The font was elusive and I wasn't going to hand draw it, so I opted for something with the same overall feel.

Shoulda mentioned this before, but this is available for anyone who wishes to do that particular livery. Not something I'm interested in pursuing. I'll zip it up and attach it in a bit. It will include the layered version in PSP (PaintShop Pro) format.

Ed,

FYI, Sent in a support email to Flightsimware about the brake issues and here is there reply

For now you can lower the brake value in the aircraft cfg file. I think the reason it leans at high taxi speed is the narrow wheel distance and we had to put the engines sightly wider so you could turn in the water since there is no water rudder. FSX did not simulate good dynamics for single engine power in water and the Grumman would not turn. So i may have to put the main gear wider in the config to make up for the overall corrections. I have made a note of this for our next update. Thanks for your info and support.



[brakes]
parking_brake = 1 //Parking brake available
toe_brakes_scale = 1.0 //Brake scalar <<<<<< I adjusted this to read 0.7 and it seems to brake better.
differential_braking_scale = 1.0 //Delta on the amount of brake when the rudder pedals deflected
auto_brakes = 0

Yep, and any turns made above about 5kts will produce wing tip strikes. Very wobbly.

Thanks for the file however, I don't have anything that can handle (open) a Paint Shop Pro file.

Thank you Falcon409 for making this available, I think I'll have a go at it. I was thinking about it right after I saw the pictures in the post, but dropped it thinking you were proceeding.

Feel free to play with the layered version or adjust it any way you need to, to make it work. Credit not necessary. Look forward to the finished livery.
 
My last one for now - maybe, if i found some sparetime next week, i will do a few more .....

I was a fence sitter before buying this plane, but your paints pushed me over the edge. Fantastic job, thanks for all the work you put into these.
