I got the Carenado Embraer EMB-120 when it first came out because I have always had a fondness for the Brasilia have flown many hours as a passenger in them until they were retired from the Fresno, CA routes. I have all the material I could get my hands on to be as close to reality as possible and IMO the Carenado fits the bill. (Let's not talk about repainting, just FDE).
Anyway, after downloading the latest update last week, I did a "Google" search for active users of the Brasilia here in the USA and stumbled upon Wings of Rescue and my heart was immediately touched by all the great work they do with dogs, I'm a huge dog lover and always have been. Over OUR dog history we have had 10 rescues, now 2 still with us in the family. Well, onto the reason for the post:
Struggling through the "paintkit" all of you like Jan Kees and Marius Kramer to name two know what I am talking about. Whew!!!! when its done. Here is my first repaint. This was actually done as the original which originally was owned and operated by United Airlines Express. I probably flew on it a few times back in the day. It was the easiest because of just repainting out all the UAL stuff and adding the logos around the cargo door. There are plenty of photos on the internet to choose from. I wrote to Wings Of Rescue for permission to use the logos and photos and since they lease all the aircraft from Berry Aviation, Inc. of Texas I was referred to them. The president emailed me permission today so here goes.
This is me landing at Morristown, NJ airport with a cargo of 96 dogs. All the aircraft are configured for cargo, no seats.
The marshaller is from UGC by FS2Crew which I really like a lot. Here is what our cargo inside looks like (real photo)
On the ground, shutdown and parked waiting for the ground crew to send the conveyer.
It was getting warm in the cabin without power and no conveyer yet so we opened up the cargo hatch so our cargo could get some air. Its a long flight from Texas to New Jersey and their new homes.
Here is a bit about Wings Of Rescue and the great work they do.
Why we fly - Adoptions! Yesterday, Wings of Rescue in partnership with Mardi Paws flew 96 at-risk dogs and 1 rabbit from overcrowded Louisiana shelters where their futures were bleak. Today many of these same pets continued their flights right into loving families as they were adopted from our friends at Brandywine Valley SPCA! From unwanted to cherished family members in less than 24 hours!
I downloaded a repaint from ERDM that Marius did. The natural metal is really beautiful. I will post a couple pics tomorrow. I am also working on N651CT, a really challenging repaint with the Carenado paintkit to do. Its almost done and when I get finished with alignment of textures I'll add it to here. They have some videos at the Wings Of Rescue facebook page with it in them. Looking forward to getting out of the paint shed and doing some flying of the B120 very soon. I really enjoy discovering all kinds of work I never knew was going on by just looking for a photo or two for a repaint.

for a nicely done airport "for an amateur" he says in his README. It is called FREEFLOW Florida Key West and I also installed FREEFLOW Florida which it says is required all of them working quite nicely. I also downloaded and installed
