File Description:
Repaint of the Dreamwings Dash 8 200 in a fictional ANZ Livery. Contains photo and vector editing to create a seamless texture complete with all decals and details. This livery is based on real Q300's so i hopefully this is what a real 200 would look like. Also included are the blank logo-less engines to suit your taste and the fictive tail number 'C-FFNZ' and parking code 'J'. For more repaints see my site: forum-design.co.uk/air

Filename: repaint_dq200anz.zip

It requires the freeware dreamwings model available on flightsim.com under then name 'dwd8q200.zip'

Errrr, there's something amiss here. I loaded up at TG and she was bouncing all over the place. The passengers were none too impressed....

Probably not , it seemed real tail heavy when it took off lol. Wouldn't have been as amusing if it was right, would it!?

Lol yea, try taking off in it with no payload and a full fuel load. ;) See if that fixes your problem.

Yes, that happened to me on take off and landing. It has happened to others I have spoken with too.

I fixed it when I downloaded the MetroAir Virtual Q200 which included a new .air file.

I have uploaded it here if you want it.

Just put it in the Dreamwings Dash 8 Q200 and click yes to write the old one.

Actually ignore that.

It was the new aircraft.cfg that sorted things out- not the new .air file.

Charl has posted a fix in the videos forum!

Just wondering what panel everybody uses along with the Dreamwings Dash8? I tried to aliase the PSS DH8-300 (payware) panel to this but for some reason it didn't work for me?? :unsure:

its a nice looking aircraft, pitty about the "bouncing" :lol:

For a Dash 8 I highly recomend this Q202 :D

Its awsome ,with a VC and 2D cockpit and the exterior model ain't too bad, only thing is its in qantas link colours .Maby theres a repaint for it somwere......
