The paintkit of the SkySimulations DC-9 is a bit awkward to use, especially around the doors as they suffer from the same "outsourced to another texture" syndrome than the FSX default airliners. At leat paints adapt fairly well to all fuselage lengths. Had to redo the vertical stabilizer texture though since it was nothing but an unlayered, photoreal blob. *Groan*


I'll upload them next weekend or the one after that. The joys of working out of town...


P.S:
N92S - from Southern Airways, went to the yard wearing NWA's "bowling shoe" colors after 32 years of service.
N9332 - from Air West(!), had "operated by Delta" stickers, but never got painted,was operated by five different airlines without ever being sold and served a whopping 41 years.
N762NC - from North Central, only frame of the three to see the red and blue Delta livery and had a healthy career spanning 38 years.

Now you just need Flightbeam's MSP airport. When I started at NWA not long after the merger most of these aircraft had been repainted all white. The "bowling shoe" scheme came a few years later. Brings back some memories!

I've got my own retrograded default MSP. With separated Northwest and Republic gates, of course.
