Matching schedules for 1974 are ready - I'm just waiting for Kristopher's OK before submitting. As usual, I'll Avsim the repaints once the schedules are posted        I've also done the schedule for Cyprus Airways '74. Since there's no AI Trident, I'm using David Maltby's UI aircraft and I won't do a repaint for that one. Exit runway when able Christian |

Great job, Chris!
Now the Middle East really rocks!!! Just fantastic!!!
Those Alia-birds have been missing for so long - same goes for the Kuwaiti 707!!!
Kind regards!

There's one thing about the Caravelle, I think I should mention though: IMVHO, from looking at Caravelle pics, the model's windows are about 1/3 too small, so I enlarged them on the paintkit to make everything fit
As a consequence, 1/3 of the ends up mapped on the fuselage. There's no problem side-on, but the lower third of the frame looks blurry when looked at from the front.
Obviously, I'm nonetheless extremely grateful for at least having an AI Caravelle...
Exit the runway when able

The Kuwait 707 looks great. Can we expect their 727 and A 300 from the 1980´s, too? It would complete their fleet on the one hand and might not be a great prob as their fonts and livery were similar.  Regards. -STEFAN-SUN_KING- |

In my 1974 schedule (the only KU timetable I have), the only KU aircraft was a 707, so that explains the absence of any other Kuwait Airways aircraft in my repaints. I'll do the Alia 747 bcz I have a '79 timetable (hence forthcoming flightplans) which does use them.
ADTB lists a total of 26 "historical" aircraft types once operated by KU. I have limited time and resources, so I must unfortunately draw the line somewhere.
I encourage you to post your request in the "repaints request" forum, though.

I know, that Kuwait must have had so many AC´s. I just got a Kuwait 1981 in the pipe, so all I need, though, is the 727. Not sure when they got the AB3. Maybe you could do "this one Aircraft" Regards. -STEFAN-SUN_KING- EDIT: Just checked several pages. I just need the 727. That´s the only plane missing.  So, Pleeeeeeaaaassssse..... |

You're welcome! As for Alaska being in the Middle East, well, there's oil and err... it's far away from where I live  |

There is an AI Trident - it's included in the Classic British AI package that David was involved with putting together. It's on Avsim, but don't know the file name - I can send you the plane itself, though - I have it flying my made-up 1970's BA schedules I created by putting together BEA and BOAC schedules. I have the Trident (it's a Trident One, BTW) in BEA colors with BA titles and in full BA livery.
