Found this on flightsim, but somehow the colours don't look right.
Does someone have a nice clear picture of the real thing?

From the Readme:

file: M339C_09.zip
This is a full package (aircraft panel and sound) and it is for FS 2004. a specific version for FSx is planned.
To make this version of the aircraft i started modifying in some extent the exterior of my MB339PAN model , which i made some time ago in collaboration with Paolo Zamparo. and due to the completely different panel used in the 339CD version I had to rebuild all the Virtual cockpit and panel...
The panel background is based on photographic material found on the net.
Included in this model there is also a Virtual Cockpit, with working essential flight instruments and animated flight controls. I tried to recreate to my best the real looking of the panel.



Not too bad I thought, it flies very nicely.

Looks like they need to back off the Vibrance and Saturation.

I'm no great painter, but this seems to be something I could attempt.
The externals are quite simple, just 2 texture sheets.



And the refuelling probe can be lost quite easily - there is an "A" model which will do.
The local "CB" version had a Viper engine, and better avionics fit, but externally I suspect is the same as the "A".



I see there is an FS9 RNZAF photoreal paint for Dino Cattaneo's version.



Marty, does this look like the stuff you have?

Heaps of pictures here from the 2001 disbanding ceremony of 75, 2 and 14 Sqns : http://www.kiwiaircraftimages.com/mb339.html

Definitely darker than the shades used on that repaint smile.gif

OK so you can have nose and tail wrong, or probe.
SO the probed "CD" bottom right probably *is* the best shot at it.



Phillip's pics are a bit washed out so difficult to colour match.
Ian the shot above was from Dino's download...I'll get to this.

When looking at the our Ex's they appear far more aggressive really warlike , i would say Dino's model would be supreme after the reputation off his T-45 and F-14 , i went in search for the refuel-probed and found mention it only being an idea for the cancelled Italian order of 20 that in turn became the delivered order of 18 in 91-93 as ex-CBs of the RNZAF

HELP NEEDED!

I've been in touch with Massimo Taccoli, and he's going to make us a CB model!
He's now looking for reference material for the VC.
Can anyone help with some clear pictures or drawings showing the layout of the panel?
