Some DoughBree L-39C repaint thoughts..

I know there are tons of real world paint schemes for the L-39 by looking at Airliners.net, but I thought I'd go through my collection and share some of mine.

Where I live there is an L-39 at our local air museum.

Notice the fake sidewinder.

And we have occassional visitors during local air shows..

But what I think would be real interesting are those I've seen at Reno in the jet racing class.

I'm anxious to see if any repainters are willing to take these on.

Cheers

Confirmed.
Asking myself what I could do for my country (well, actually it wasn't mine, as I lived on the other side of the fenceline...), I'm currently fiddling on some GDR-LSK paints. It may become a triple-feature, consisting of "144" in LSK markings, "28+52" in its unique 1990 transition scheme and a white/yellow target tug.
Thanks to SteveB's support, I have all the stuff I need for these paints.

Cheers,
Markus.

This Russian Albatros looks awesome, Zsolt!

Here is the current status of my East German 144:

Assuming the Warsaw Pact's Air Forces had the same standards on how to paint the L-39's tip tanks, I think my wing tip's yellow area still has to become a little wider.

More to follow...

Cheers,
Markus.
 
Nice one Markus, as for the yellow on the wings I agree it does need to go a little wider.
Zsolt nice work on the Russian.

Zsolt, your Lithuanian livery is awesome - Thank You! Markus, that DDR work in progress repaint is incredible. Keep up the great work with the repaints Gentlemen - So many of us appreciate your hard work.

Cheers! Mike :ernae:
 
I have a repaint request for zsoltquack.

Your repaints are phenomenal, and I was wondering if you might considering painting this L-39 for me. It is owned by a friend who shares a hangar with me in real life, and is quite possibly the most beautifully detailed paint job I have ever seen on an Albatross.

For those who are wondering, this is the Royal Thai Air Force, and I believe his aircraft is the only civilian L-39 flying in these colors.
