There's someting about the Duke's shape that I think makes it almost 'majestic'.

Very nice realistic screenshot, simple in a way, yet effective!

It sure is a beauty. I love the lines of the fuselage and tail section.

yeah cant think of many 'ugly' beechcraft...except maybe the 1900D... :p The Duke certianly is no exception to Beech beauty. And the prospect of a realair turbine duke down the road wet my chops that much more. The Duke paintkit is ready and approved by Realair. I will upload it when the new file server is in place :)

In fact....

Way back in FS2002, Adam Broadmore did a fantastic repaint of the Flight1 Cessca 421C. The label was G-ORA. Seems it's one of Avsim's 'missing' files.

It was eagle wings and body done in pastel colours on white.

If anyone can come up with that, i'd be real grateful as that bird ports well into FSX.

And..... if somebody could do it for the Duke, well i'd err.... pollish your boots sir:salute:

Now the paint kit is out, this be an unadulterated :bump: :jump:

Can anyone remember that C421 paint? Any Pics of it floating around in your archives?

Pretty please?:kilroy:

Dougal, I too was a c421 owner back in the day and I seem to recall a few very artistic paintschemes for it, I remember one that was some kind of jazz musicians scheme. I will see if I can find some of those old paints too. :D I would love to see some artistic freedom on the Duke as well. I was thinking of finding the texture for the boxes found behind the copilot's seat and make some kind of PSD file for them so you could create your own box...may require a good sense of humor :D
