Looking for late style BEA Rapide for FS2004

This would be the "Islander" style, white cabin top, silver doped below with red cheatlines. Not the "Key" livery which I already have.
Some of the posts here by Dave G and others seem to indicate that it's been done for FS2004, but I can't seem to find an actual download link.
Thanks all!

Hi,
I did that scheme was done for the FS2002 model, but not the FS2004 version (different mapping). When I re-did the Rapide for FSX I again included the BEA scheme.
I can't remember off hand if I then back-dated it for 2004

I'll have a look around & if I can't find it, I can reproduce it from my masters.

Hi Pop
Welcome aboard
Dave
I did that livery for the 2004 and I thought you used elements of that for the FS.X
It should be at britsim but when I checked this morning I couln't get into the file library.
Let me take another look
I'll be back

Hi Garry,
I know you did the early "Keyline" type BEA livery (among others) for 2004 which I used in the FSX remake, but I don't recall you doing the later scheme
I could well be wrong, it was a while ago & I get easily confused

I could be just as confused as you Dave
I know it exists...and I remember doing it.............I suppose I Gustave finished it, but it was a long time ago.
Whether it is mine that was available or someone else's I can't say off hand
The best one will be DaveB...he'll know
He's a bit tied up IRL just now but I'm sure he'll pop in with the answer sometime
I do think it might be a Britsim but I can't get into the downloads.

Nope...not at britsim
There is an Eagle in that livery
Sorry...I think you'll just have to wait for the Ripide response team

OK, I've remade the BEA scheme using my FSX masters, and uploaded the package here:
EDIT: link temporarily removed.
I don't have FS9 installed any more, so I've been unable to test them, but it
should work OK

Just got back from the Midlands and seen this. Yes.. I have every BEA paint and then some for FS9. I'll remain on standby in case DG's doesn't work but the chances of it not working are slimmer than a slim thing on the slimmest day of the year
Typical.. weeks of nothing interesting then a Rapide question when I'm not here!

Hi mate
Yes..you were my one hope from the beginning but I took up the challenge with valour...and failed miserably.
Thank goodness for Sir David of Garwood who saved the day.
I was actually onto this much earlier as soon as I approved the post...but got nowhere
Made the day that more interesting
