Hey Steve,

Flew the '121 Green off Gary's Midway for some carrier testing. Lovely paint! I ran out of time to try the '164 - and I really like that you appear to have added a custom helmet to that paint. For 60s and 70s eras, that's an awesome touch.

Cool helmets, huh?

Thanks again for your great work on the Scooter ....

Thank you DL. I added the orange chevrons to the 164 pilot's head gear based on the photo I had. Glad you like it. VA-93 will be up later today. I'm going ahead with the 212 bird with a different side number since I had already created a new shield and did a few hours research before I knew there were others out there.

Also have an "F" in the works of VA-113 Stingers which they only flew for a short time before converting to A-7Bs.

Looking forward to all three.

I learned something new from you today ... I didn't realize '113 used the F before going to the Corsair ... I always thing of A-4Cs in the context of VA-113. Cool. Who knew ...

take care,

request?

I dunno if this appropriate and is the right place, but if anyone is kind enough to make a repaint TT-0403 Indonesia Air Force. I am nowhere close to proficient in repainting. I believe this in conjunction with the Navy livery within the sim

Thanks in advance :jump::jump: :encouragement:

Here's a quick stop at Saigon, on a busy morning, transiting through up to Chu Lai ... kind of like how the AI C-133, DC-6, and Constellation all came together ...

Thanks ex,

Yeah, I'm not a big fan of the humped E and F, so I change the model= reference. Works fine ... though on the later M, with the square fin, I don't mind the hump as much. Don't ask me to explain it, I don't know .. :very_drunk:

cheers,
