Ok ladies and gents, latest news about the RAZBAM Fairchild Metro III:

About to arrive this week to get some paint, and here the latest picture posted on FB:



On FB there's a poll, for 10 possible paintschemes to do: https://www.facebook.com/RazbamSims?hc_location=timeline

Or you can post here on this thread, for those not having a FB account, the paintscheme you would like to see as part of the final package.

Cheers,
Hank
 
Great news, Hank - would love to see some Oz paints for this one. Wikipedia page has 3 pics of pax and cargo versions that fly in this part of the world (not sure about model variants).
Looking forward to release!

I was going to suggest SkyWest Airlines in the white with blue/red stripe because I rode on one to and from KSAN - KLAX back in 1983.

I liked Lone Star Airlines out of Texas as well after seeing three of them parked in the fog when I flew down to Dallas back in the mid-90's.

And although they were Swearingen Metro II's with the early three blade props, open main gear doors, and shorter wingspan; Empire Airlines out of the north-east and Tejas Airlines out of Texas. I modeled both of these when I made the first ever Metroliner for FS back in 1993. I'll wait for the paint kit to do them. :icon_lol:
