IIRC this was mentioned a l-o-n-g time ago. But it is the only freeware one around, and probably been about 400 new members since who don't know about it.
Also the site of the
Tristar that the Court paints were done for.
The links to the A300B4 and 600 don't work - they were the SGA versions.
And the 737s are by Erick Cantu. So that makes them FFX/Kittyhawk?

Hi Ian
I thought it was the 200 that came out a while ago and this 100 was new?
Perhaps not.........must have taken little notice of it at the time
Saw it mentioned elsewhere and thought it was new...ah well that's what you get for surfing brain dead in the middle of the night
The TriStar has certainly been around for a while.
I remember that

Indded.I just checked that myself

Thanks Gary. I think this one is 'vintage' enough to fit into my collection, especially with a nice Alaska Airlines livery.

Thanks for the HU. I seem to have missed this one.
The Liveries link is inactive. I had a look on Avsim, but couldn't find any repaints for the 100.
Grateful for any pointers.

Hi John
The 100 seems to have all the Eastern variations and that's it for now as it appears to tie in with the BETA status. :think:
I must say it looks very nice with all the high lift devices set out at various settings.

Probably because it was destined for Virtual Eastern.
NorthStarDC4M = Pete Liddell of Virtual Eastern painted the Tristar in Court Line colours - maybe he know if any other schemes are available or when the beta test restriction will be lifted.

That's what I mean Ian by the the BETA status is that is can only be downloaded as part of the Eastern VA something clear on the download.
