Hi Ian,

Looking good, I bet Ben hasn't seen these yet. :smile:

FYI : :whistle:

JEA also had more 200's in same colour scheme:
G-JEAJ, G-JEAK, G-JEAR,G-JEAS, G-JEAV, G-JEAW, G-JEAX.

Loganair also had another 200 in same colour scheme
G-OLCA, G-OLCB (edit, reg amended per GR spot :doh:)

:wink:

@Garry

Thanks for the h/u about the Loganair logo (or rather oh b*gger). That one still needs work and probably I would have noticed that. Will do G-OLCB as well - just checked on A.net and looks identical to G-OLCA.

But that means the Trislanders are wrong - no photos of the other side of the Loganair Trislanders. :sad: So better sort those out as well - just flip the logo horizontal in Photoshop :smile:

@John

As for the multitude of Jersey 146-200, I reckon they all seem to have variations on the logo. I was getting very confused trying to match the paint until I realised that. So a few tweaks may be necessary (might just be reg in different position, or might be different sized logo on fuselage).

And the Manx one - those 3 legs look tricky and the Celtic font :think:

Hi Ian

The Loagair logo is an L so should be that way round and mistakes are made, but sometimes they are not mistakes

The JEA Twin Otther G-JEAC had the JEA back to front on the fin and was repainted into BCAL Ccommuter with a different colour fin still with the JEA logo back to front.

It might have been deliberate to fit the raked tail to the raked logo. Sometime tails logos are slightly smaller to fit if they are flipped.

A small aeroplane his harder to do that something with a nice big wide fin.

Tail logo's are a nightmare......never what you expect :roll:

Trislanders are sorted. Will fly them and take some screenies and put them up on the Otter's pond. [And for those who don't read the VA posts, eg me :redface: , DM has done some work on the Trislander/Islander FDE]

Jersey 146 G-JEAR is done (I hope :worried: ). I will post that to Rob's site as well. Will take a look at the others to see what variants of the -200 can be produced. [Again look at VA posts for FDE comments on JM 146]

Loganair needs the logo sorting (easy) but the fuselage time lines have discontinuities where they cross the forward door and the air brakes - I wil fix it but a lot of trial and error.

Manx will probably be the worst of all, so no holding of breath for that one.
