    Ted-

    You keep tempting me! ATM I'm flying the Orbx World Aleutians in Sibwings' An-2, but soon, very soon I shall be driving London Control batty with Kestrel & Kittyhawk flights in and out of the Royal Suite. It's grand fun fitting in between the 777s on short final .

    KN628 is just the ticket- Ta!

    PS- I started the repaint thread asking someone to paint the RAE Dak... So if you are ever inclined... That would be splendid as well!

    Thanks guys! Few pics with alpha added. Spending most of my time cross-referencing many pics of C-47's. Exploring the possibilities!





    Need to move the outer reinforced wing panel a few inches out than it shows here.



    Here's one of Monty's C-47 used by the Queen. (1961) Notice the special door added to the rear cargo door. Hmm... adding another door... my next project maybe! Yep, I think so!!!

    Have you contacted Bernhard Lechner about upgrading his RAE Dak? His email is in the readme.

    Leading edges look great, almost looked like de-ice boots on the previous posting. Excellent work ! Mike

    One source I also use is the talent over at War Thunder forums.

    Example: Very complicated pattern on a Japanese aircraft.

    Sorry for delay... life stuff, very much disappoint with people, but hey here is an update using stuff I've learned from master Photoshop experts who do aircraft.

    Focus was on the cowls and center wing area... more to do as more to learn is applied.
