Viscount 810 textures

Post by aeroart »

I would like to find United, Capitol, Air Canada, or other U.S. or Canadian airline textures for Rick Piper's Viscount 810 for FS2004. I tried all the obvious places (Rick's Paintshop, flightsim, simviation, CalClassic), but no luck.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Art

You won't find any :worried:

United, Capitol.....I presume to mean another carrier called Capital and Air Canada did not operate Viscount 810 *-)

Apart from Continental I can't think of any US carriers that operated the 810 ( nothing major at least) although Royal American had some painted up I'm not sure if they entered service.

No 810 operated in Canada that I can think of.

Hi Garry

I can only think of the Viscount 757 which was used by Air Canada & Capital (both of which are in the 700 series basepack)

Exactly Rick

Those airlines mention and others in North America are 700's not 810 as requested *-)

The 700 was used extensively for many, many years :)

I found textures for a Continental Airlines Viscount 800 on Rick's website and it works fine.

I followed Leif's suggestion about going to www.classicbritishfiles.com, but my sign-up appears not to have been accepted. Or maybe their email confirmation just hasn't been sent yet.

Anyway, the Continental paint job looks great. Thanks for your suggestions, and thanks to Rick for a great sim.

The paints Leif mentions are all for 700's

The Continental was in the base pack so you should have already had that *-)
