Wonderful shots Peter, can't wait to get my hands on it. By the way, didn't you have a beard in those days or did Rick forget to paint it on? :lol: :lol:

Hi Eric

they are a couple of guys that used to run FSBerlin.(sadly the site is now static) :sad:

Pilot face textures by Arik Hohmeyer of FSBerlin. (with permission) http://www.fsdesign-berlin.de.vu.
the faces are Dale Deluca & Hans Hermann I think.

they where the best head textures i can find.
Originally fron Arik's superb Lockheed Electra L-10A model.

Regards
Rick

No Eric...I own the airport and most things are OK around here :dance:

Here is an extra shot for you:-

Jakes Bar is just a 1000 feet gravel strip with nothing else...So I put a fuelling point there from drums:-

You have to taxi approximately into this position for the tanks to fill :smile:
