"Loyalty and Perseverance" I think.

Well, it's paid off! This is going to be one of my favourite paints and it's going to Avsim today.

Enjoy.

Rolling.

...and up

I think all the details are reasonable accurate. You tell me.

After a couple of circuits to let the paint dry, it was back down to a good landing. I was surprised - no damage this flight!

Sorry folks, I had a "buff" contact me and i had to do a few corrections. The corrected version is going up to Avsim right now. Details on the upper wing and tail fin have been corrected.

For those that have already installed the first attempt, simply extract over that folder. For new downloaders - see the readme file. It'll be on avsim in minutes few.

Aaaaarrrrrrrrrrghhhhhhh!

I thought I was being clever - other air forces have their flags right way round on both sides of the fin. Apparently the Portuguese have "green bit forward" on both sides.

In which case, you'll need this. Simply unzip it over the "lealdade" folder.

I think I am done now? Here's the link to get the corrected fin:

Hi Chris,

Edit: By the way a nice repaint

Any chance of a New Zealand scheme of this model? Will have to be ficticious of course as there are no DO-27s in New Zealand and never has been (except there is or was a Do-28 (twin version) in pieces at Ardmore).

The reason I ask as I have decided to get a new add on and it is a toss up between the Do-27, the Saab Safir or the Aeroworx King Air. A NZ civilian scheme with a ZK-(DOR?) rego would be great and the clincher. I am intriuged by this models damage modelling. Would try a repaint myself but never been able to work it out that well.

A New Zealand scheme of Dreamfleets Baron would also be nice. :thumbup:

Cheers

Paul

hmmm - I'll give it some thought...

Just got to finish this:

(I have heard the phrase "Let's call a spade a spade" but it's a bit obvious to call an aeroplane a "Flight Thing" :lol:
