was just wondering when you were going to release the 727-100 and 200 freight paint kits

also i have been trying to paint the wings on both the 727 100-200
but every time i render it and run it in fsx the wings still show up as metal can this be fixed

There will be no separate Repaint Kit for Freighters, they can be easily converted from -100 and -200 kits.

- Please remove Alpha channel from _T texture
- Make sure you use DXT1 format and correct texture names. At least you can compare your texture and original texture file format and find the difference.

One thing I have discovered about the wing textures...

The FSX 727-200's do not appear to use the textures called "727_200_4_T" or "727_200_5_T"...instead they use "727_100_4_T" and "727_100_5_T".

I found this out by renaming the wing texures on an All-Nippon 727-200; once I renamed them the red circles and aircraft numbers magically appeared on the wings!  Try renaming yours and I bet it will work for you.
