Need to do stuff here and there, but the worst is over.



The paint kit for the FS9 model (http://www.calclassic.com/f27.htm) is already available (http://api.viglink.com/api/click?format=go&jsonp=vglnk_jsonp_14100478519596&key=bbb516d91daee20498798694a42dd559&libId=30ebf893-0f5f-4417-9f38-f598e03705a9&loc=http%3A%2F%2Fcalclassic.proboards.com%2Fthread %2F6533%2Ffokker-fairchild-last-virtual-cockpit%3Fpage%3D11&v=1&out=https%3A%2F%2Fdrive.google.com%2Ffile%2Fd%2F0B 6K_xiE2GqmMcU83QURlbm8wajg%2Fedit%3Fusp%3Dsharing&ref=http%3A%2F%2Fcalclassic.proboards.com%2Fboard% 2F3%2Fcalclassic-discussion&title=Fokker%2FFairchild%20F27%2C%20at%20last%20wi th%20virtual%20cockpit!%20%7C%20CalClassic%20Forum&txt=drive.google.com%2Ffile%2Fd%2F0B6K_xiE2GqmMcU8 3QURlbm8wajg%2Fedit%3Fusp%3Dsharing) and the main texture can be carried over, soooooo... *nudge* *nudge* *wink* *wink*

Great stuff, Bjoern! I'm looking forward to trying this out in Allegheny colors. It'll make an excellent companion for the CV-580, too.

Thanks for tackling another overlooked aircraft for FSX.

This will certainly lead to another Piedmont Airlines addition!

Bjoern, your work is looking fantastic!

F27! A great idea. And there have been so many operators: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Fokker_F27_operators :jump:

Letīs wait and see...

Thanks, guys!


Keep in mind that this is originally a Calclassic project, so 90% of the credit goes to the guys there!
I'm just converting and polishing it.

No external tanks, no military versions.

And yes, that's rain and moving wipers.

It was very popular as a regional aircraft in Australia from the late 50s through the 70s. The paint I would like to see is Airlines Of NSW. They served the region where I grew up.

I'm not going to paint this thing, but save for the wing textures, all paints for the FS9 version will work*.



*If the painter used my paintkit and left the "FSX compatibility" layer enabled. If not, it's at best five minutes of work to adapt the fuselage texture.

Although there won't be a military version, but I'm convinced there will be a Royal Netherlands Air Force Version.... :very_drunk: :encouragement:

This is the colour scheme I was referring to. This is the scheme worn prior to the 70s.
