DLT Repaint Of the 748?

Post by virginblue »

Hi all,

I was wondering if I can beg successfully for a repaint of the magnificient HS748 in the colors of German regional airline DLT (which grew into Lufthansa Cityline).

They had this fantastic overall-red livery in the 1980s:

Later in the 1980s, the changed to the rather dull basic LH livery:

The final livery was Euro-white:

And then there was also this one on the leased prototype of the Super 748:

My suggestion for a repaint would be the all-red color scheme, but I would be thankful for any of the above.



P.S.: First post on this forum - hi everyone.

Hi Virginblue

Welcome to the forum :)

One thing :o

Can you please check before making requests please as the red and basic Lufthansa are a part of the HS 748 package. ;-)

Looks great mate :)

The nose lettering looks a little small now.

The last two reg letters are missing off the nose doors....did you put the reg under the wing? :think:

Hi mate

Bottom left for the underwing

Try and find a pic of it as it will probably be further in than you imagine it would be.
