BTW, a user friendly paint kit = more product sales, that's a fact. When simmers see tons of repaints for an aircraft it makes it a more desireable addon.
I haven't bothered to do any repaints due to the posts about the difficulty in simply lining up aircraft sections. I won't make judgements before trying it but if the stories are true it's a real tragedy.


So true, but while CS's 707s is a pleasure to work with, the 737 is a nightmare. Aligning fuselage sections is very hard, the tail cone/APU is mapped as a completely separate block with chaotic mapping... Even the tail, which should be the part easiest to work on, is too much of a hassle due to the rudder being separated from the stabiliser and at an angle. How they could think that would be a good idea when 90% of liveries display complex logos there is a mystery to me...

If you were wondering why we're not seeing more 737 repaints, here's you answer...

Cheers

Nico
