Very nice and an interesting scheme too. A repaint your doing? Alphasim?

I've only got the first AS pack with the F2, etc, always meant to get the other two but never got round to it.

All three packs are still available at Alphasim.
You should see the other side.....

The only Lightnings I have are the older Alpha Sim freeware ones...they work in FS2004...mostly.

Tranquil is doing this without the aid of a safety net - or even a paintkit!!
I certainly don't have one.

Video and website for Lightning XS458

Just downloaded the repaint and about to install. Before I did, I found a video on youtube of XS458, as well as a website devoted to XS458. The website is as follows http://www.lightningt5.com/index.html.

Important, please note that there is a slight mistake in the readme file concerning the Aircraft.cfg section, it seems that we missed out the panel text..

(if not added no panel will show)

[fltsim.xx]
title=Lightning_T5 XS458
sim=Lightning_T5
model=T5
panel=
sound=
texture=XS458

where it says panel= please add T5 so it will look like

panel=T5

Also note, that there are no serials under the wings as on the real bird!

thanks to RL_201 for his pleasant pm

sorry again, but slight mistakes do happen!

thank you

That's my fault, I'm afraid.
I've separated out all my Lightnings (by type) into individual subdirectories - for ease of tweak, panel mods, etc.

Here she is - in FSX:
