Paint kit link goes to a 404 page though.

If you look at the link you'll see it has some extra characters after the zip name. Remove those & the link works.

Are the Garmins modeled in 3D and permanent elements in the VC?

[StormILM]

If there's one repaint that needs to be done for this model it is a reversion to ole #13, White Lightnin'. Any takers?

Yes. This is a great model and great flyer.

Tim, awesome post for must have aircraft to decorate your hangar


Thanks

[malibu43]

Cool! I already own it, but maybe this will spur the creation of some new repaints!

I like that White Lightning above, and some "restored" WWII schemes would be cool as well!

[scotth6]

Yeah thanks Milviz. That is very generous. Thanks for the sale too.

Cheers,

[Flyboy208]

After my skepticism about Milviz (my 350 issue) I must add, this did come as a surprise and might also sway me back to rethink my stance about Milviz.

Thank you milviz, much appreciated.

[MustangL2W]

Thank You Milviz.... That one needs some Army Air Forces Repaints!

[Bjoern]

Yes.

Feared as much. Thanks, guys.


Immersion whimpers and cowers in the corner as I am throwing a privately owned airplane around the sky of Ronnie Raygun's USA with more advanced technology in the cockpit than any (back then) bird in the armed forces' arsenal could muster.

Not only internally, but externally there are details on this aircraft that aren't true to any production Lightning during WWII either (that goes for the real aircraft just as it goes for the superb FS model). This is a one-off, just as the real aircraft is, restored to be a solid, regular flyer, as well as a piece of art when on display.

And just as a reminder, the aircraft isn't based in the US, it is based in Austria (it was restored in the US, for Red Bull), and is flown at airshows all over Europe, not the US.

As for available repaints, Gordon Madison did some very nice ones (note, with this model, you can't repaint the polished prop spinners, so any repaint for it will have to make do):

A more accurate depiction of the real aircraft (i.e., all of the Red Bull markings/titles applied): http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforum...4&linkid=17102
Polished, with no markings: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforum...4&linkid=17104

BTW, thank you very much Milviz for the very generous offering!!
