Rick Piper Repaint

Post by shadowcaster »

Hi
I know it's not really British, but I'm hoping someone can help. I'm thinking of buying the Nemeth Designs EC135, I've been looking around and have seen links to a repaint by Rick Piper of the Cornwall Air Ambulance for this addon. I have followed several links but so far have been unable to download it. Is it still available anywhere.

Welcome to the forums shadowcaster :thumbsup:

I don't have this paint in my collection but I'd be surprised if someone here didn't have it. Hang in there mate.. all is not lost.. yet ;)

Hey Dave
Thanks for the welcome Sir, I'm hoping someone has it stored in a dark dusty seldom visited area on their hard drive. The only reason I would like it is we see it fly around virtually everyday and it would be a nice addition to RAF St Mawgan.

Cheers
Rich

Rick uploaded this and more to his webspace here but the links are no longer active.. http://www.cbfsim.org/cb-bb/viewtopic.p ... 91#p247491

Is it possible for you to see if they're still there please mate? ;)

Kerplung!!! I've found it over at Hovercontrol.. http://www.hovercontrol.com/cgi-bin/ifo ... ts&img=405

Hi DaveB

Alas the links on the Hovercontrol site don't work for the Cornwall Air Ambulance the other repaints are fine. Thanks for taking the time to look guys it must be out there somewhere. Just seems odd that the other textures are available but the Cornwall one. :S

Well.. all I can say to that is pants.. great big rotten ones! *-) Do you ever get the feeling you're destined not to have something 8)

Chances are, we still have them here but the links aren't working because we've changed servers a couple of times since they were uploaded. I can't access Rick's space but Ben should be able to. We'll try and get you sorted one way or another mate ;) Airtrooper (the chap who uploaded the files) is a member here so we have another avenue to try ;)

I've stickied this for now

It could well be that someone has it so this will prevent the thread sinking out of sight within a few days

I also think that others who don't heave it may well want it too so lets at least make it obvious for the time being :)

Good idea mate and thanks for that ;)

While looking for it online, I found one link that pointed to here of all places :lol: Another chap had noted the links didn't work but somehow, he never got a reply :( I found another one on Simviation but found it was shadowcaster asking for it over there! Someone, somewhere WILL have it even if we can't refix our links (the file may not be there anymore). When all is said and done, the others Rick did for the EC135 are at Hovercontrol. It's ironic that the Cornwall Air Ambulance is listed there but there's no download link 8)

Tks again mate :thumbsup:

I just checked my install and I only have the Essex paint and an unknown one that just says 'County Air Ambulance' on the side and has 'G-BZRS' on the tail. The latter is probably not the one we are looking for knowing my luck. :dunno:

EDIT: Just checked the above link and it is the wrong paint. :((
