S-51 HO3S H-5 Mega Paint Pack

Mick

SOH-CM-2025
Just uploaded: a package that includes every skin the FS world has ever known for Greg Pepper's Sikorsky S-51 / HO3S / H-4 all gathered together in one package. Well, every one I've known, anyway.

"Something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue."

Something Old: paints that haven't seen the light of day (or the light of monitor screen) since FS2002 was the hot new sim.

Something New: new paints created just for this package.

Something Borrowed: old paints used as a basis for new ones.

Something Blue: US Navy, US Marines and Royal Navy Dark Sea Blue skins.

Sixteen paints for OBIO's restoration and update of Greg Pepper's Sikorsky S-51 / H-5 / HO3S. This comprehensive collection brings together every known skin for this great old model of this classic helicopter. There are old paints included for those who might have missed them when the model was released back in FS2002 times, mods of the paints in OBIO's rebuild (including the RAAF paint made reflective silver), and new paints made for this package. Included is an Aircraft.cfg file with all the paints patched into the User Interface section. Also included is a set of files to adapt the S-51 to use of Rob Barendregt's True Helo VTOL gauge. (But not the gauge itself; you'll have to download that yourself.)

A big Thank You to OBIO and Michael Davies for updating this fine old model. :ernae:
 
YEAH! This helicopter flies so sweetly. It's time we started having copters where the tail rotors work as designed. GREAT JOB!

Aw, more thanks to you Tim, and to Michael. You guys did all the heavy lifting.

All I did was collect some paints and make some mods to some of them.
