    That particular 'version' from Morton had LONDON in smaller lettering after Morton Air Services. I've only seen YO painted like this. Other Dove's (with the slightly different titles) did have Morton Air Services in small lettering above the pax door as did the Herons.

    Enjoy!


    Cheers,

    Royal Jordanian Air Force

    Already available for repaint here at SOH this depiction of a Dove in Royal Jordanian Air Force Historic Flight livery. I fell in love with this livery first time I saw it and had to do it. Also to add in some variety and exoticness.

    Ex-Belgian Devons were used as bombers in the Katangan conflict in 1961. Might make an interesting subject for a paint.

    That looks great! It'll be a nice companion for the FR Heron in Apache colors.

    I'm not a painter, but I understand that the PK is a bit tedious for the Dove....so everyone's repaints are all the more appreciated!

    Fingers crossed for a Reading Airlines (Pennsylvania) repaint someday...

    Not one for me.. I'll not be pulling any US liveries for the Dove but that said.. it's a lovely job thus far. Should I ever venture outside the confines of UK airspace.. I'll be looking it up

    Curious as to what folk think of this model I have not bought it for reasons various but I have a lot of others from JF which while OK for price, have been disappointing and what seemed like good work was somehow unfinished, so reluctant to dive in on this one, for that reason. (For example really looked forward to the DC-8, great textures, graphics but bugs in the handling and performance which made it quite unpleasant to sim with.

    I have always had a fond spot for the Dove and actually nearly bought one for real once but there were significant maintenance issues with respect to the spar and epennage (Major rebuild required), that was the same for all of them, short shelf-life. Been in a real Dove (Solomon Islands Airways had one for a goodly while) but never got to pilot one myself. Sturdy and nimble performer for the engines (a good turbine would have made all the difference). Cabin was spacious and comfortable but cockpit was a squeeze and all that glass in hot areas made them hard work. They had a real pocket airliner feel. Good Navigation trainer for the military.

    So what do you all think so far?

    Footnote: If someone does a Flying Doctor or NT Medical Service or MacRobertson Miller paint then I guess I would have to get it no matter what.

    I do have this beauty and really enjoy it despite it's faults. Most of those are easily corrected though. At the moment it's a hard choice, either fly this one or the Flight-Replicas Heron....

    The issues with the trim and sounds have been discussed variously and fixes found (plus, I understand JF is working on a service pack) otherwise I'm really enjoying this. The thing I like about it is the "feel" of the cockpit. BendyFlyer - you said it was a squeeze and somehow the designers of this model seem to have created that sensation in the model, at least that's how it feels for me. I'd like a DME read-out on the traditional panel but that's really the only deficiency in the traditional navaids (you can dial in the 0.5MHz frequencies we have for some NDB's in the UK, a fact that many other models seem to overlook). Haven't tried the "up to date" panel yet.

    Ground handling is very good indeed, especially with two throttle levers and toe brakes. (again some models seem to overlook this).

    I'm enjoying it.

    its a great plane i like it so far too bad it does not have mixture controls so its limited in alt

    and the lack of a cabin too which is a easy fix
