Hi, I think it's time now to enter the stage.

Visiting this forum already some month ago, before I got my current rig and FSX, I first want to thank all those lads who gave me some wonderful birds and repaints for my hangar since than (in the meantime I learned to fly some of them without permanently hitting the ground:d).

I now have a very special request that forces me to "come out from the background":
Flying around in Scottish and German sceneries most of the time, I recently tried out helo-flying - and it worked, thanks to some reasonable information I got from here. My favourite bird (besides the CBi300) soon became Piglet's OH-6. Unfortunately, I have to go around always with a gunner in the back seat or with Nippon camo on it (just imagine that ATC guy when we passed his German regional Airport tower window). Did any SOH-"specialist" ever consider giving that power egg (the Kawasaki-model w/o gunner) a civilian paint? The colourful one from TV-series "Magnum PI" e.g. is very well known over here in Germany. Man, what would I give for that bird painted with a Scottish saltire flag to explore the Highlands - they could stop developing further helos for me (ok - maybe a BO-105 later, if I got some more experience).

Regards
Mike
 
Welcome to Sim-Madhouse, Mike! :wavey:

I would wave from South of the Border but I'm currently across that narrow gap of water the Scotland's South-West. ;)

Hey Mike,

Welcome to the SOH!

:ernae:

Do you have a good recipe for haggus? :d


I loved that helo in Magnum PI. The 500 is a sharp bird.

Ethnic minority? Yes and no:wiggle:

I'm a native German, so I'm not really a part of an ethnic minority:costumes: - millions of us are around here.

On the other hand - not so many of my fellow countrymen wear a kilt (sometimes) what definitely makes me a member of a minority again, at least in my country.
@Lionheart: Yes, of course I have. At present my cooking is better than my hovering.

Thanks again for your warm welcome over here.

That's correct

I shoot the breeze with the pilot when he recently took a break here at Dortmund (EDLW, Aerosoft) airport:costumes:

No takers on the paint yet???:wavey:


If I could, I would....:isadizzy:
 
If I can find a HQ photo of it I'll give it a try. Welcome aboard Mike!! :ernae:
 
That are great news!
Bob, your repaints and props look quite as goos as your avatar:jump:
Took out your yellow 152 for a ride around London last night. Germany switched over to winter time, so I had plenty of time to enjoy.

Hi again

here are two interesting paints on the same bird. One is the opposite of a Scottish egg :d, the other one shows exatly the "Magnum" colour scheme but with different colours. Seems that the owner bought that copter with different liveries :costumes: Both found on airliners.net; Hughes 500C civil
 
Now I like that "Jack" livery, very nice.

It may just be worth noting that it's better to provide the links to the pictures on the Airliners website in future, it's frowned upon to post images that have been saved off their website. ;)
