Who is the livery painter of VC-11 livery please? I have retro RAF livery but not the modern RAF livery.

Is the A330 from CLS?

Superb set, Dave, and a great theme - a right bunch of tankers, in fact.. But ...where's the Victor ? ;)

:lol: :lol:

I knew as soon as I posted the Vulcan, I'd need a Victor too. Truth of the matter is.. I took a few moments 'time out' from looking after the grand daughter (I left SWMBO I/C) that took a lot longer than a 'few moments' :worried: I tried to drag n drop the JF TriStar into my current install and the darned thing wouldn't display. My old install is on the same drive too :wall: So.. I had to quickly re-install the lot 8) Same happened with the Voyager. Couldn't find my original so had to install 7gb worth off the Airbus Collection - Long Haul just to get the MRTT model. Not one of my better ideas :lol: I'd forgotten I had an AI Victor installed though I must have happily scrolled past it on the way to the Vulcan. Yep.. child minding does this for you :lol: It's an unusual subject and one often ignored. I've actually repainted a couple of Alpha F3 Tornado's I took shots of while on an AAR sortie with DM and Tonks with a view to re-creating that moment ;) I have a few more ideas for screenshot themes. All I need is the time to sort them out :cpu:

Aharon..
The VC10 C1K is by David Maltby and can be found here.. http://www.dmflightsim.co.uk/vickers_vc10.htm
All DM's models are FS9 and while the Trident, Comet and 1-11 have VC's.. the VC10 does not so it's a bit of a handful using a 2D panel in FSX. Not impossible but not as easy as using a VC. He has some AI models there too which look and operate very very well :thumbsup:

By heck, that third one's a cracker - the sunlight is perfect. It looks like one of those photos Tonks used to post of his day at the office.

Interesting aspect, Dave, well done.
As I've said before, I'm finding jets more pleasing than I did.
Not warm & fuzzy yet, but they can be impressive. ;)
