• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

One more A-4...

I did a paint from each of the units onboard the BHR at that time.......

Notice of SNAFU!

I zipped the wrong texture file into the VA-212_No2 folders. If you downloaded this file "FSX_Virtavia_A-4F_VA-212_No2.zip" before 16:00 US Eastern Standard Time you got a bad file. It has since been corrected so please re-download the file for the correction if you're still interested.

My apologies for the inconvenience.
 
Looks great Steve!!

Of course, I am on biz travel, so can't try these out for another few days - but I'm sure they're lovely - so thanks in advance!

Ah, yes! The smell of xylol, cyanoacrylate, and Floquil sting the nostrils almost as much as hot Jet-A fumes while the vibrations of an idling JT-9D jar you to the bone as you're standing under it on the ramp loading last minute bags on the last B-727 to LGA of the night! Memories of another time and place. :mixed-smiley-010:

Thanks to you both, delta_lima & gray eagle, for requesting these VA-212 Scooters. The A-4 in these markings is a right handsome fellow.

I worked on the ATL ramp in the summer of 79 for Delta. Loaded plenty of DC-8's, DC-9's, B727's and (new!) L1011-500's! Crew of 4 could turn a DC8-61 in 20 minutes. Was 104 a lot of days that summer...freakin so hot at the old ATL Hartsfield the asphalt paved parts of the tarmac would get soft. Got to work on some B707's from BCal that summer too. Delta was their gate agent. That was the last summer of the old Hartsfield. Im glad I had that experience.

To this day, I hate the USPS for the overweight mail bags and flights from Detroit...loaded with those stupid little Jet Magazines that were a pain to unload.

Such a small world! We may have crossed paths more than once. I worked Eastern's ramp 78-79 then made the jump to management. ORD, JFK, and ORF were my USPS nightmares, specially ORF with all that USN "green" mail! Actually worked (all hands on deck) the night of the move to the new terminal.

No worries. I've done that myself. In fact did it twice with the same IIIB scheme before all was sorted.
Writing readme files, packaging, and uploading late at night is taxing on the eyes and brain.

Thanks for all the repaints.
