Jøssing II

**JensOle** · May 16th, 2009, 04:20

Hi,

Another Catalina paint I'm working on: Catalina Mk.I JV933 / 3-C "Jøssing II" of No. 333 (Norwegian) Sqn. based at Woodhaven 1944. This aircraft is painted in the late war scheme of Extra Dark Sea Grey over White.

That's a really nice scheme.

Great choice and great work (as always)

A beautiful presentation of an elegant old bird. She's graceful like a 1940 Lincoln Continental or a 1936 Cord, - designs that will never die.
Can't wait to fly her. I'm in love.

Hi,

Thanks! I appreciate the feedback. I'll try to get it ready for uploading later today.

The Norwegian Vingtor Cataline reference page has been mentioned before, but I post the link one more time. A lot of interesting history and info about the Norwegian Catalina Squadrons during the war (and post war):

Beautiful paint bro!! :ernae:

**jdhaenens** · May 16th, 2009, 07:00

Absolutely Brilliant, Jens!

**JensOle** · May 16th, 2009, 08:07

I'm also working on Jøssing II as it looked during July 1945 when it was used to carry a delegation including the Commander of the Armed Forces, Crown Prince Olav, on a tour along the entire Norwegian coastline. On this occation the small Norwegian service flags were replaced by much larger flags. It did also have the new "KK" squadron code which 333 Sqn got towards the end of the war. I have two reference sources which mention different color on the letters; sky or red. Of interest is also that it has got the C type wing roundel.

The "Jøssing II" paint has been uploaded to flightsim.com and here at the SoH. Enjoy!

Splendid!

Thank you very much, Jens...

Great repaints, indeed!

***Roger*** · May 17th, 2009, 05:17

Hi Jens,
Whatever I do I can't get the repaint to show in the menu. I've changed "ø" to "o" and checked all the entries in the cfg entry. Any ideas, I really like the scheme and am looking forward to flying?

***Dangerous Beans*** · May 17th, 2009, 06:09

Hi Jens, very nice repaint.

There is a small error in the cfg entry though which is probably whats stopping it loading for Roger.
The sim = line is on the same line as title = after a very long space.

Roger, try this and see if it fixes it for you.

My research for information regarding for the color of the code letters used on Jøssing II during the summer of 1945 has been difficult, but judging from b/w pics it looks like red. So here are a few pics of Jøssing in the scheme used early post war, stil under RAF control.

***FlameOut*** · May 22nd, 2009, 17:56

That looks great Jens

Maybe I can get this livery to show up in FSX. I could not get your 1 st. one show despite the [fltsim.xx]... post per Dangerous Beans on the previous page of this thread... had a Yago repaint do me the same way with Aerosoft's F-16
