    Nice screen shots Lewis. Do you know if there's still a plan to release the KC-97 package?

    Yup, that's the one that made me an addict and severely curtailed my a/c purchases. It raised the bar and no one else has met it yet. It will always be a classic.

    I've just over 300 hours on my BOAC airframe with one engine
    at 294 hours. All four are due for overhaul once I make a flight
    from Malaga to London. Hig oil consumption is limiting me to around 5 hours flight time.

    Once I have the new engines I'll be heading back across
    the pond. Then across the States in preparation for a
    trans-Pacific journey

    It should be noted I used IrFran Views 'auto adjust' colours on those shots so the darker shadows is not a natural in game effect but otherwise its all good :ernae:

    What I really like is that Martin did such a good job ont he skin, its photoreal without there being a single edited photo involved in its painting, now thats talent!

    Mr. Lewis "Lewis-A2A,"

    I recently got a new set of Axis' just to use with this beauty (and others like here) since under Accu-sim it feels better to have it (it almost needs it IMO). I've missed flying here...

    PS: Great ScreenShots!

    I couldn't handle it personally I'm to heavy handed with my fists of ham, I always seemed to break something when flying it lol, Great shots!

    Could someone please direct me to where I could find the American overseas airlines repaint? What an awesome paint job. Thank you very much.

    It's a stock paint that comes with the aircraft.

    LMAO:isadizzy: Thank you, I've had this plane ever since it came out, guess I never went through all the paints. How embarrassing, next time I'll definitely check.

    Hee hee, I know what you are up to Lewis my boy. Let me tell you right now it won't work. I am wise to your wiles and I am capable of resisting them.


    Besides, I already bought it.....


    I agree with the others, nice shots. Rather nostalgic and romantic.
