Thank you so much! You are now my hero! I can still fly European! And not just in the another company sims. I can now at home!

Thanks once again!

Ahh the good old stripes livery! looking superb even with the "noticable issues" 

So I take it you're doing this and the "last" plain white livery?

You my friend are just too good for me! Are you doing full Palmair or the Palmair European Livery?  That was a great alliance they had there for a while!

Eric.M wrote on Aug 2^nd, 2012 at 9:59am:


Well it's the same as my posting, but without the added European titles, that said I would prefer the European titles on there for 'Palmair European'

Exciting times for the B732!

Great work Eric,
Looking forward to having some EAL liveries from the days before the change to OZjet.
Any chance you would be able to tackle this version of EAL.

Thanks
Chris

Any idea on when your first masterpiece will be able to be downloaded?

Oohhh you're Absolutely right! I kept checking yesterday but to no avail! As its my day off I shall fly immediately! Shme there no bournemouth scenery until next year

Thanks Eric!

Ah yes I remember it now! Very very dated! Haha I guess I'll have to wait for UK2000s new version next year

Absolutely! I do love UK2000. It's a bit of a shame to have to wait a year! Ha!  I also look forward to Luton! As Eiresims is...well okay but has many flaws.

Took a break on the red tailed one to pop out the Palmair paint, its almost finished, looking at it in the sim now. I also didnt realize how many versions of the red tail with grey stripes there were.

just the fact that its the same scheme just a different color tail, RED,BLACK,BLUE. does it ever end

Final alignment and color adjustment as we speak!

captjames wrote on Aug 15^th, 2012 at 8:46am:


Sure is! Im glad you like it the only thing i cant seem to see on the real plane is the small text under the windows, i dont know what it says otherwise i would add it to this plane.

Yes! I've encountered all of those and now I avoid LTN like te plague :/ shame as I love Luton. Although from working there and the issues of the airport. It is the worst airport in Europe! Haha.

If you do need any help or anything let me know

i think it says " Voted Britans Best Airline, Something Report March 2003" The word before report is what im having trouble with. i think it says "What" but i dont think it is.

I'm confused by your last post. I was of the understanding that palmair was no more. Thanks to Ryanair. And the only aircraft they had which was leased from Astraeus, went bust.

Are they coming back for 2013?

An interesting read to say the least. the word in question is either "which" or "what" .

captjames wrote on Aug 16^th, 2012 at 6:16am:


I think your right james, although its seems weird to me to have a magazine named the "which magazine". Read that in the forum that Speedbird posted and it threw me off a couple of times( i thought they were asking a question as to WHICH magazine was it posted in )

Well if they could do all that with just one plane, sounds like to me they should have stayed around a little longer!

captjames wrote on Aug 16^th, 2012 at 10:37am:


That right there is Pan Am level service! Boy what i wouldnt give for one flight on a 707 727 or 737 of that era! unfortunately i was born in 1986 (start of the Classics) and mostly flew on the -300's-400's and -500s along with some of Alaska and Southwest airlines NG's.

Glad I could provide some info for an interesting chat on the forum.

I have to agree that ” Which” is a strange name for a magazine but it was interesting to see such a small airline got such positive attention.

Luckily for me my interest in aviation started at an early age and that my first ever airplane ride was on my 16th birthday (1979) aboard a Pacific Western 737-200. Over the years I’ve had lots of flights on Pacific Western 737’s and right up to the late 90’s on board Westjet 737-200s.
Back in those days in Canada it was easy to get flightdeck visits during flight. I was lucky enough to have many jumpseat rides aboard Air Canada DC9-32’s including a few landings and a gate to gate flight in the cockpit.

I love the old birds and have a huge collection of old memorabilia from those extinct airlines and aircraft. Even had two flights to KSFO aboard CPAir DC8-43’s back in 1978.
If I had only known how rare those old birds would become I would have taken way more pictures.

AH the good old days of aviation.
I really miss them too.     

Thankfully there are some talented people like yourself to tackle a few liveries for the hobby.
Wish I had the software and talent to give it a try, there are a few classic Canadian, US and UK liveries I’d love to see come to life in FSX.

I have lots of pictures from within the Canadian/Air Canada hanger at CYVR for 737-200's that hopefully one day will join my FSX fleet.   

Looking forward to your work Eric.

I’ve been to Spokane a few times back in my younger days. Love Washington State, It’s like the British Columbia of the United States.

Chris

Did you ever get a chance to fly the old classic 747-236B's.
We had them come into CYVR a few times back in 2002.

BA was flying them here all the time till retirement and it was nice to see G-BDXH back in the EAL livery.
I assume all the 747-236's had the FMS that BA retrofitted into them when you guys had them.

What happened to those beautiful old birds? hope they all didnt get scrapped.

Chris

Thank you for the kind words! Im really just an total newb when it comes to this, there are many better than I. ive been to canada once up to cranbrook and Nelson, Nelson was great cause the prestige hotel we stayed at was right at the end of the Nelson airport! If you have some photos of the aircraft you want id be glad to give em a shot if they havent been done already. My first paint i ever did was the Seattle Seahawks "Seahawks 1" livery for the CS 727-200, which is uploaded to the free liveries.

I LOVE Top Gear! Such a funny show and awesome super cars. i have the Game Forza Motorsports 4 and they have the TG test track there with the 742 modeled in the scenery! would be neat to see pictures of your uniform! Looks like we have two ATP's to tell stories to us!

Eric my friend, looking epic! Yeah that right side looks to be troublesome. However the left side looks like the real thing!

10/10!!!

Ah yes silly me! I was flying from Cranwell to Duxford in tiger moth!

Oh yes! Anytime, any place and spotters see different planes/ airlines they may not ordinarily see!

Coming along good. Night shift at the Railyard kicks my butt on a daily basis, but were on the home stretch!

Any closer Eric?

Ok so I think im finally done, Uploaded to CS this morning so it should be up soon!

Tanya returns from holidays on the 13th September (Thursday), so it might not become available until then.

captjames wrote on Sep 11^th, 2012 at 7:19pm:
OUCH! I certainly hope not. Brings tears to my eyes just thinking about it.

Still no sign of it! :/

captjames wrote on Sep 21^st, 2012 at 3:24pm:



Could you Point out the "Union Jacks"? and on the PALM, i was wondering if it was different or if it was my monitor, i triple quadruple checked both sides making sure i chose the correct color but ill look again.

captjames wrote on Sep 22^nd, 2012 at 6:42pm:
I have informed Tanya of this problem. Hopefully it will be looked into soon.

In the mean time, if you have an ImagShack, Photobucket or something similar, account, upload it to there and add the image to post using the

method.
This is how it would look in the post:

In that case I hope it gets sorted out soon.
I'm still getting the problem occatuionally. This was the last time it happened:

They're looking into it.
