Re: Jetstream
Beautiful work, Rui! Curiosity got the better of me and I had to do a quick Google on 'Media General'. This company obviously had excellent taste in corporate aircraft.
Media General was an American media company based in Richmond, Virginia. The company's origins can be traced back to 1887 when Richmond attorney Joseph Bryan acquired The Richmond Daily Times, which later became The Richmond Times-Dispatch. Joseph Bryan's son, John Stewart Bryan succeeded his father as owner and publisher of the Times-Dispatch, which merged with The Richmond News Leader in 1940 to form Richmond Newspapers, Inc.
After John Stewart Bryan's death in 1944, his son, D. Tennant Bryan led the company into a period of expansion into television, changing the company's name to Media General in 1969. Media General, Inc. began trading on the American Stock Exchange in 1970.
Sorry to digress.

Re: Jetstream
Rick, if you're reading this, please give me until this evening,
when I will email you a set of better textures,
for all the repaints so far...things I wasnt happy with;
-the whites were different around the fwd wing root area, these areas were not matching visually...and it just didnt look right !
-added some distress or weathering fx to the "daily drivers" like SierraPacific and Cal-State. ( kept the House Colours Prototypes clean)
-Cabin Interiors were misaligned, the roof rack needed some tweaking. Done.
-and a few other tiny little bits, really...
So expect these repaints tonight, in your email. ok?
Will email this message too.
later, gentlemen,

Re: Jetstream
well,...almost 6 Am now...
Happy Sunday everybody !!!!!!!!
So, every single pixel is now as I wanted,
all the shades of white matching all the various models parts, etc...
custom interiors, as you can see, from a somewhat functional first cabin for the roll out aircraft, to a more Corporate looking and rather elaborate cabin
( bear with me here, and my imagination!;) )
Each and every colour scheme comes with its own cabin look, and also entrance...maybe I shouldnt have...but since its a great looking model and the files were there...well..
I have zipped all the files and emailed Rick for his aproval,
and so hopefully they should be available for you to download soon.
I hope you like these textures, its a lovely aircraft, as I said already, and a real pleasure to paint and fly
off to sleep now....
zzzzzzzzzzzzz
