I've been trying out the iFly aircraft of late and felt the need to repaint it. Uploaded it to Avsim today. I should imagine it will appear in the next day or so.

Nice! :D

We already have one from OpenSky. Anyone know what the difference is? I'll find out myself soon.... :wink:

I love that Canadian Cargo livery with maple leaf!!!

I do WISH WISH you would put that cargo livery on POSKY 747-400ERF or 747-400BCF version 4 and POSKY 777-200LRF version 2!!!!!!

Rob, IFLY 747s are like Meljet 747s. IFLY is noted for their cool 747 panels. I prefer POSKY 747s version 4

One thing I forgot

I do WISH you would use that same cargo livery on POSKY's new 747-8F:):)

I'll have a look at the Posky stuff. No promises though. I've had issues in the past with Project Opensky. Their aircraft tend to look incredible, but fly like pieces of crap....

IDK... Maybe they've improved their flight models. Time will tell.

Regarding POSKY, Version four of 747-400BCF or 747-400ERF freighter plane, version two of 777-200LRF freighter plane, and new version of 747-8F have shown MUCH improvement than the earlier versions that you flew before.

Even version 4 of 747-200F flies amazing!!!!

I do wish POSKY would correct flight dynamics of 737s. That is why the other company Therehold Dude company modified POSKY 737s to correct only to be told by POSKY not to do it. I find it strange considering the fact I know many many virtual airlines modified cfg files of POSKY planes to correct flight dynamics but hide them in fleet download center behind password protection so that POSKY would not know and discover.

Regards,

Aharon

All my repaints will be for FS2004. I messed around with FSX, but in the end I un-installed it.

As for Posky, I've had a look and one of my biggest complaints is still valid. No Virtual Cockpit. Why anyone would go to the lengths Posky does to create amazing visual models, complete with many special effects, but neglect to add even a rudimentary VC is beyond me. I generally don't sit on the wing when I fly....

And again, Aharon, I'm painting in FS9, not FSX... sorry man.

????????? I do not remember complaining to you about FSX or FS9 or FS2004. If you would please be kind enough to recall from all my screenshots, I have no problem flying your FS9 liveries in FSX:):):) Remember I am using your FS9 liveries for 727-200F ADV, 757-200F freighter, and 757-200 passenger for FSX flights:):):)

So if you plan to paint your cargo livery on FS9 (FS2004) version of POSKY, version four of 747-400BCF or 747-400ERF freighter plane, version two of 777-200LRF freighter plane, and new version of 747-8F, that would be much appreciated. I can easily convert to FSX version by putting your liveries onto FSX planes.

On other matter about POSKY, if you really like to fly freeware 767s, the only POSKY 767 that has excellent flight dynamics would be 767-300F freighter plane version four using model 767-300FER-GE-CF6-80C2. Sure would appreciate your gorgeous cargo livery in that plane so that I can create cool screenshots for all CVA pilots who love 767s.

Thanks,

Aharon

I might take a crack at a couple of the freighters. Will be a bit though. My time off is rather short this set! :wink:

Shalom Keith,

Thanks!!! Please take time I am patient man:):):):) I do look forward with eager anticipation for your famous cargo livery with maple leaf tail for those new planes POSKY, version four of 747-400BCF or 747-400ERF freighter plane, version two of 777-200LRF freighter plane, new version of 747-8F, and 767-300F freighter plane version four using model 767-300FER-GE-CF6-80C2.

Regards,

Aharon

So... Why can't Posky organize their website better? It's a gong show trying to find anything.

Tell you what Aharon... you add me some download links to the planes you want... and dig up the damned paint-kit for it off their site (damned if I can find them, even though people say they're there) and I'll see what I can do....

sheesh - you can't find anything either! I thought it was just me because I don't know what their terminology means.

Some of their paintkits are actually just blank white textures. Makes it really hard to do a decent paint job. I have a partially made paintkit around somewhere for the 757 but it takes a lot of work to strip all the details to different layers. I also just finished stripping a 727-200 to separate layers...need to apply some paint now. 8)

Shalom Keith,

I am not paint expert but I will try to find paint kit for you:):):)
