Has anyone considered a Qantas Jetconnect 737-400 repaint. Either 50North or Vistaliners ? With QFNZ moving more to a 400 type fleet a repaint would be good to have

Thanks Matt. Got the 300 (pity about the Rego as JNA is long Gone). Would really like someone(Dan?) to do a 400 JTP,JTQ or JTR.

I'm pretty sure the 50N pack comes with a QFA B734 paint, seeing as they are almost identical, it probably wouldn't be particularly tricky to know up a flag and takeaway the 'Spirit of Australia' etc text. :)

Thanks Alex. I have the 50N 400 and the 50N 300 (Qantas texture for ZK-JNG). Tried to modify the texture on both but all I ended up with was grey where ever I tried to make a change.
New to this stuff so any suggestions would be appreciated.

I'll try and whip up a quick JTR. :rolleyes:

Alex

Edit; Quick preview - only half done, but is there anything blatantly obvious that I've missed?

Looking Good. No obvious issues. Don't understand where I was going wrong when I tried to modify QFA texture?

One little thing I have missed is the 'Boeing 737' text. Does anyone know where I can get a decent high-res image of that? All the pics seem to have the wing in the way or zoomed right out...

Otherwise I think its just about ready...

Thanks everyone.
Well looks like we almost have 50N covered.
Anybody keen to try Vistaliners for those that don't have 50N download?

Hi Alex, See it sitting in AVSIM.

Still don't understand how you managed to change the QFA texture with the 50N 734 model.
I went into the texture file and attempted to modify it and all I ended up with was a grey fuselage.Any idea what I was doing wrong?
I'd like to modify the QFNZ texture for the 50N 733 and change the rego from JNG (which left the fleeet some time ago) to something that is current.
