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 :hello:


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 :worried:

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 :lol:

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 :worried:

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 :worried:

:lol: :lol:

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! :lol:

Hi mate :hello:

Yes..you were my one hope from the beginning but I took up the challenge with valour...and failed miserably. :doh:

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 :doh:

Made the day that more interesting :lol:
