She's ready Have a play and then compile your list of faults for me You can find this download at the bottom of this page. This one was an interesting challenge to repaint for the sim. First of all, the real world one is a Pitts and there are now really suitable Pittses for FSX - YET. Secondly, the real livery is all flip-flop paints and really irridescent. I haven't done the owner full justice, but it's "NADITS" (near as dammit is to swearing)

Ooops... toungue in cheek there - I should have checked that both copies are removed... there, that's better. Link broke.
Yes - copyrights problems folk. It is like I always say - I always try to contact the aircraft owner for permission to recreate his plane. But when a previous owner has registered the (C) and the current owner did not buy it, then the (C) owner can be difficult - and in this case there are repercussions.
I am OK, but I have to phrase the (C) statemements appropriately and now I am waiting for approval.
Guys - folk have laughed at me over the years about my insistance upon copyright issues, but this is a real issue that can cause big problems. So far I am clean, but I do tend to pick extremely interesting liveries and I do ask whenever I can contact an owner. I know 99% of all painters probably don't, but beware - it could get painful in the long run. I know also of some plane makers (sim addons) who are also currently discussing their releases with the (C) holders - through lawyers in at least one case.
And even if the owner says yes, you ought also to check with the sponsors too if the owner is in doubt.

I've been thinking... Just how many Eagles have I skinned? Not a clue any more... There were several that never made it to release for one reason or another, but here's a small slideshow with most of my FSX EagleSkins and a couple from FS9. Probably less than a quarter of all the Eagles I've done...
