	I think you will find there is a classic BOAC livery available in the expansion pack for a freighter and there is another classic BOAC repaint available for the standard 300 ADV model around on the net, not sure if it is listed in the free liveries section. Both liveries are for the period about 1973-4 period, blue black with the gold speedbird. These are the only ones I know off that are available none in the white tail blue stripe style, unless there is a 2004 model available which could be converted for the FSX.

	the only problem with the cargo expansion model is that the word "Cargo" is right next to the BOAC, it kind of spoils it, it would be helpful if someone were to remove the Cargo from the title

	Hmmm got your point the passenger repaint was not uploaded here to Capt Sim liveries for some reason the original repainter decided he would not for why I have no idea and he has also stopped doing repaints of any sort. I was posted via AVSIM and I found a working link to a file share site that may work: http://www.gamefront.com/files/17628718/CS707X_BOAC_01.zip If it doesn't and you can't find it email me and I will send you a copy.

	Speaking of Re-Paints - is there a Re-Paint Texture file available for the 707 from the movie "Airport" (1970's) , tga livery ?? Trans Global Airlines. I know there is one available on the HJG site, but it won't work with Captain Sim's 707, at all . I wouldn't mind swapping textures with one of my 707's from Capt. Sim if that tga were available . Thanks - the JetRanger (kmkc)

Firstly I know you didn't do it, but perhaps he pulled it because it's not accurate. Colours need some editing, Speedbird and BOAC logo and similar coloured parts are too orange, should be more golden and the blue looks like black. Here's a 707 in BOAC colours at the National Museum of Flight in Scotland

	I've started to tweak it. Looks like this now, need to adjust the blue still and the gold is about right for those conditions, why is it always raining at Duxford � Oh and the PFO is reversed on the right hand side of the tailplane, needs fixing later.

	Darren No this not my work at all, I am only just learning to do repaints and this quality of work is just a little beyond me at the moment. If you can make the adjustments how about posting the before and after results and letting us know what colour changes or font changes you made.

	Darren for what its worth I had the good fortune to spend a day in the BOAC 707 cockpit and playing around the aeroplane in Hong Kong as a young guy. I remember that the funniest thing was the cockpit interior seat and colours which were not the standard blue/grey we see on the models but a chocolate brown colour, always stood out in my memory. Try doing that for the VC (just kidding) don't know if there are any photos that show this.

The BMP files will work fine with the 707 Captain for FSX. So it should be fine. Just remember to copy the texture.cfg from one of the other texture.xx folders, e.g. CS_B707-300\texture.aa folder, into the texture.tga folder or a lot of the 707 will be black! Mark
