Douglas C-47 v3 Livery Thread

[Skyhawk18]

Hi Gunnar,

Looking great! Was wondering which graphic settings do you use in FSX (willing to share/post you "nvidia profile inspector"?)

Regards,

Marcel

PS
The thumbnail of "Placid Lassie" is still "little_egypt"

Thanks Marcel
The screenshots are from P3D v.4.5. That's why I forgot to remove the old thumbnail. A new thumbnail can be downloaded here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/o8ize1qcnn...bnail.jpg?dl=0 The livery will work fine in FSX as well (It is basically made in FSX and copied to P3D when finished)

Aha! Well spotted!!!! #1 was from some old/previous session, uploaded by mistake! I really am becoming more like my old father-in-law (R.I.P.) every day, who used to describe himself as "a daft old fart"! He flew C-47s in WWII - towing gliders - and loved them.

The link is in the previous page of this long (and amazing) thread - but to save the artist and yourself a little time, here it is:

The (FSX) thumbnail included is for "Little Egypt". There should be a correct thumbnail inside the C-47 Placid Lassie folder that will have to replace the one in the texture folder.

Well, we had a few C-47 or DC-3 in the Ejercito del Aire as well as in Iberia. Here is one of them, I do have the intention to paint more, but Real Life is holding me tight

I just uploaded them to the Add-Ons for your enjoyment (should you like them!)
Tell me what you think!

[mercure]

It is very nice Ascua, thanks a lot!
Never enough quality liveries for the Dak!

Shalom and greetings all my pals,

Can any talented livery repainter please be kind enough to paint on Super DC-3 (C-117) this livery as seen on this photo below? Thank you for any consideration any of you might have for this repaint request.

Regards,

Aharon

The TransNorthern scheme is basically the Super DC-3 Douglas demonstrator livery. Changes are the text names, relocated and changed registration, and addition of the Alaska State flag on the fin.

The mods are simple and would be a good learning session working from the existing Demonstrator paint that was done by John Detrick and is on FlightSim https://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/fslib...ght&fid=174405

Is John Detrick regular member of SOH forums here? Maybe I can ask him to do that?

The PH-PBA, once USAAF '42-100971' as she looked during Operation Market Garden. She was named 'The Squirrel'.
This historical repaint is inspired by 75th commemoration of the Allied drops into Holland, September 1944.
The chalk number '3' depicts her paradrop mission on Sept. 17th , 1944 into DZ-N south-west of Groesbeek.

Real one:

FSX Derby Airways Douglas DC-3. Textures for Manfred Jahn and team C-47 v3.12. Derby Airways textures by Gary Harper.

Yes, thanks Ian...been 'off radar' for a few weeks so missed your post. The repainter Gary Harper kindly took this project on for me using supplied photos etc and did a very good job too. I did thank him when he released it, great paint job too!

Hi Aharon, buddy .. did you try posting on NZFF? I could have sworn I saw a post from you *somewhere* asking about "old" C-47/DC-3 liveries ...

I used to try to keep up with all the NZ liveries on my old version of NZFSIM, but it all got too time-consuming to keep updating. *However* ... I can check my old archives to see what I have. I think Doug (at NZFF) also has some of the old ones.

Was it for FSX or P3D you were after?

Adam.

[Aharon]

Hi Aharon, buddy .. did you try posting on NZFF?

Not about this Mount Cook liveries

I could have sworn I saw a post from you *somewhere* asking about "old" C-47/DC-3 liveries ....

yes you are right I was asking you about all New Zealand based airlines' liveries and all New Zealand air forces' liveries in your famous website that has now vanished

I used to try to keep up with all the NZ liveries on my old version of NZFSIM, but it all got too time-consuming to keep updating. *

That is not not not problem and it is understandable. Your old NZSIM website was amazing

*However* ... I can check my old archives to see what I have. I think Doug (at NZFF) also has some of the old ones.Was it for FSX or P3D you were after?

I would gratefully appreciate that please and it is for FSX using Manfred Jahn DC-3/C-47 model base version 3.12 or whatever is latest version, please.

Thanks for any assistance you might offer

Aharon

Where can I find this repaint as seen below please as I seem unable to find it on SOH, avsim, and flight sim libraries??

[johndetrick]

Yes I'm here. I lurk here in the shadows and don't post much. I'll see what I can do in the next few days.

Thanks for your kindness regarding your special repaint for Super DC-3 known as C-117.

Meanwhile, can anybody please be kind enough to point me to correct direction where I can find the SAS livery mentioned in my previous post seen above showing screenshot of the SAS DC-3 with registration number SE-CFP painted by Skyhawk18?? I cannot find the repaint on SOH, Avsim, and Flightsim libraries.

Wonder if this could be it, Aharon?? Are you sure that Skyhawk18 was the painter or did he just post the screenshot?

[rohan]

If people would bother to actually read the thread, they might find the link in post 1157 still works - watch which browser you use though !
