I would love to see someone tackle this paint. It's one that has been pretty well ignored, but was really the one that started off the career of the F-111.

SAC, among others, remember?

I used a picture I made of it when it appeared at the Twenthe AB airshow in Sep 1979. Also uploaded this one and the Upper Heyford one I did yesterday to the SOH Library (waiting for the screeners at this time, may take some time to appear)

It's sounding like a "must have" addition to my hangar. But first I need to know if the pilot relief tubes dump or not? If not then it's a "deal breaker" for me I'm afraid. :)

:icon_lol: I'll pass that along to the developer. I'm sure he'll give it the consideration it deserves.

Sounds like the dumping is more a requirement for airliners. Ever taxi
behind a row of parked 737's? Blue streaks on every one of them.

Interestingly, many people think that airliners have the ability to dump at will, or in flight, as it were. Many think that because they see the blue streaks or hear stories of falling "blue ice" crashing through house roofs. Some even believe that we airline pilots make/take a lav dump when and where we please. Oh, if only! I can think of a few times and places where I would have hit the Blue Poop Pickle Button. Just in case anyone here is begotten with this ill notion, planes can only be dumped on the ground by a lav service vehicle. They hook the hose up to the lav dump receptacle, extracting the lav tank contents and recharging the blue juice (yes, we call it blue juice). The streaks you see on the aircraft sides come from residual blue juice at the lav dump receptacle.

When we are at the gate and are getting serviced after a flight...cleaning, catering, fuel, lav dump, ect...sometimes the lav dump guy forgets to come around, and we have to make a radio call to ramp ops to get the guy over to the plane. Some of us like to get on the radio and tell the ramp ops supervisor that we have a "code brown alert", just to have a little fun, lol.

Just a little anecdotal blither on the subject, sorry for the slight jack.

Nice try,Bone...but we all know that those Chemtrails are backed up Blue Juice being dumped into the atmosphere! on the whim of the hysterical pilots :icon_lol:
 
RE airplanes,dumping,crap........

I was flying for Bankair and while sitting on taxiway Dixie at KATl saw something funny.

Sitting in line with the big boys we slowly crept closer and closer to being able to takeoff. In front of me was a 757 and in the number 2 pos was a old Fokker F-28.
The number 1 blasted off and the Fokker was given pos and hold. The Fokker did not instantly start moving and in maybe 20 seconds later the 777 impatient Capt said, " Tower could you tell the Fokker Delta has a schedule?"

Then it happened.... The Fokker opened up its tail mounted speedbrake "clam shell" and "someone" transmitted a loud farting noise!:icon_lol: There were a few seconds of dead silence which is rare on Atlanta's freqs then the Fokker slowly taxied into postion and took off.

Thank you for that! Freakin funniest thing i have heard in a while!
 
Remind me to tell ya about the Baron that taxied in with a pair of soiled underwear stuck to the tail or the passenger that peed into a fire extinguisher and discharged it in the cabin.

Ok, Back OT.
 
Bone, how did you address the blacked out view from the VC? I'm not seeing which texture is used for glass.

Take the cfg from one of the FSX texture folders, such as the texture.camo, and then drop that in your FS9 paint folder. All of the FSX glass and common paint files that came with the FSX version will be used. If you do this, the only FS9 texture files you'll need are the 111bottop, 111else, 111sides, and 1111wings texture files. The other texture files found in the FS9 texture folder won't be used. You can take them out if you want, but if you leave them in it won't matter.

Just in case there's any confusion, the texture cfg that you need will contain:

[fltsim]
fallback.1=..\texture.shared
fallback.2=..\texture.night

Good story. There's so many like that, it's almost a constant carnival out there.
