Thanks for testing this model Fredem. I really appreciate that.
Uploaded this a.m. Egyptian Air Force Royal Flight from the King Farouk era in the early 1950's. The only actual "military" livery I have been able to find (the USA-COE Black Mallard doesn't count :-).
FS9 and FSX port-over textures for TAA VH-TGA uploaded...
That is a beautiful scheme wellis; thank you
Can't leave it alone...another Mallard uploaded this evening. This one is a continuation of the "study" of Mallard J-34. In this instance it is a livery worn prior to its turbo conversion. It is one of two registrations before CF-FUOT/C-FUOT, (and later VP-CLK), the other being N2977, of which I can find no photo.
Thank you Milton Shupe and team for bringing us these wonderful freeware aircraft!
William,
Back in my younger days (ca. 1962) when I was hanging around Timmins/Atlantic Aviation at Dorval, GEV was a regular visitor. Back then teenagers were allowed and even welcome to be around customer aircraft and I got numerous chances to see her up close. Of course there was sometimes a price - "hey kid, can you help me wipe this hydraulic fluid off the belly and gear?" There was also payback -like being invited to ride along when the pilot taxied her to overnight parking... Of course she re-appeared years later as CF-UOT and I saw her almost daily for a while.
So, some 20 months ago when Milton asked me to help find some info on the Mallards, one of my first thoughts was that I'd be able to see J-34 (as GEV and UOT) in FS fifty years later.
Thank you!
(and thank you again Milton, although you already know I'm very pleased).
