For what its worth- more FORD repaints at Garry's web-site

Just noticed a few new liveries at Garrys site:

http://www.gjsmith.net/Textures/ford_tri-motor.htm

Two new Cuban airlines. Two UK airlines (Instone & Imperial Airways). One from Mexico. Two new Australian repaints (West Australian and Australia National Airways).
The grand total is now at 127 repaints for the old Ford.

Take care.

OhOh a tri motor in cuba with nose art of Betty Boob. Now that's classy and a must have in my hanger:salute:
 
I think this is gotta be some sort of Flightsim record. At this moment Gary Smith's website list 164 repaints for the default Ford Trimotor. I don't think anybody anywhere has created so many texture variations for a single flightsim model....ever. Am I wrong?

Certainly solicits a high whistle and a holy smokes to begin with....

The plane below was real, flying out of Lansdowne field. In service for only about a month, she flew into the ocean in heavy fog just off of Dungeoness, Washington. I have (older) friends who can remember as children, Ford Trimotors flying in and out of Lansdowne, now the location of a shopping mall.

Thanks Gary. Thanks Ed. What a terrific archive, so much to explore!!
