NAC DH-114 Heron repaint available now at SOH

[Maarten -]

Hi there,

My latest repaint, featuring the New Zealand National Airways Corporation's de Havilland DH-114 Heron 1b ZK-BBM 'Matapouri', has just become available here http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php?catid=7&linkid=18256.

I made this repaint for our distiguished flightsim pal Pete Ham, who is also very active as a Chief Pilot and driving force of Classic Flyers NZ at Tauranga Airport, New Zealand. (www.classicflyersnz.com) Classic Flyers NZ includes a museum which has in its static collection the real ZK-BBM.

A big thank you goes to Steve Baldwin (aka SteveB aka Stalin) who was so generous to make his brand-new bare-metal textures for the Heron available to me so I could make this repaint.

You will require the DeHavilland DH114 Heron Srs 1 & 2 FS9 package (by Derek Palmer, Fraser McKay, David Booker, the CBFS Team and Gary Jones), which is available at Classic British FlightSim (http://www.cbfsim.co.uk/cbfs_lib/thumbnails.php?album=51).

This repaint has not been tested on the FSX version.

Cheers,
Maarten

Many thanks again Maarten.




Just a little bit of extra info ..... several years ago I took an elderly gent for a flight in our Stearman. He was a retired ex NZ NAC Captain who had flown this very Heron while it was operated by NAC.

I get to meet some very cool & interesting people.

Pete.

It has been a great pleasure making it, Pete.

Your passenger must have been very pleased to see his wee girl again.
