  • Special Server Maintenance

    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

KC-97L paints by Jankees

I have all three 377 zip files (FT/Larissa/117GA) in an archive.

As it turns out I've also got a few others saved as well. I can see the Cal, AZ, Missouri, Tex, and UT KC-97 zips, too.

If it's not violating anything can I transfer them to you via PM?
 
If you go to the Warbirds library and go to Jankees FSX Military repaints pages 16+17 there are some there.

Regards Paul Day.
 
Thanks guys. Also found some L - model skins I was seeking (USAF/ANG) at flightsim done by Paul Craig based on Jankees' paints.
 
Thanks Jankees. Searching here for the "L" models you kindly painted however are proving difficult to search for.
 
On avsim, search for blom, order results by date and they are on page 8 in scan view.
Sorry for doing so many paints...
 
On the contrary, we are very indebted for your prolific and generous work!

What I cannot determine is which texture for the KC-97L has the two small radar fittings on the top of the fuselage.

Thanks Jankees.
 
Thanks. The reason I am asking is that some of these aircraft (see links) had a tan or white top on the larger radar fitting instead of black. On the old Greg Pepper KC97L I recall repainting some of these just to add to the variation. If this is not textured and baked into Manfred's model and can't be changed then I understand, though when I try to use the L-model with some of the G repaints, the radomes appear, but they are solid black, untextured with no silver + black on top finish, which suggests that it's not in the model? Bit of a mystery.

Life is to short, Never apologize for doing something that brings you and others such enjoyment !!!

Please have a :very_drunk: Happy New Year !!!! Paint on, if it makes you feel good. Enjoy !!!!! :biggrin-new:
 
Well, I found it. It's in texture #4. I am not a rivet counter type (heaven forbid) but part of the joy of this hobby is fiddling around with these kind of little mods, so I am a happy bunny. :jump:

HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL !
