Here are some screenshots of my KMIA - a massive collection of aircraft from all over. One project I'm working on is all of those Caribbean big propliners out of KFLL, KOPF, and KMIA around the 1990's. N90251, the DC-7C you see is a step in that direction. The recent Caledonian DC-7C released gave me a good template for getting this plane painted. (And there are still a ton to go... Bellomy-Lawson alone is going to be interesting...)

Here is another bird painted: Air Taxi International DC-6. Not the best, if I'm honest... The texture mapping around the tail is a real bear. N37570 - as it appeared in 1995. The scenery is my own rendition of KOPF... also not the greatest but its close enough.

Air Taxi International DC-7BF - N101LM as it appeared in approximately 1995.

Bellomy-Lawson DC-6's... N91BL, N94BL, N96BL, and N98BL were all relatively close in livery at one time. Got them all painted up... On to "Aerial Transit" and "APA" Bellomy-Lawson leases...

Bellomy-Lawson DC-6B - "APA International Air" - N95BL as it appeared in the early 1990's. Once I get the "Aerial Transit" leases done (N89BL, N92BL, and N93BL), I'll start posting these up in my Box account. Use for UI or AI use.

Bellomy-Lawson fleet is complete! N87BL, N89BL, N91BL, N92BL, N93BL, N94BL, N95BL, N96BL, and N98BL are all of the 1990's DC-6's I could find (and their respective leases at that time...). I will upload them to my Box account tomorrow along with Air Taxi International. All of these were done by using Paint, Corel Paint Shop Pro X2, photos, the CalClassic DC-6 paintkit, and *lots* of patience... Since most of the propliners out of Florida in the late-1980's and 1990's were unscheduled ad-hoc carriers, I'll post up the FP's I've got generated for them up here too.

Here is another Convair for y'all: "The Wall Street Journal" (N1179) *by the way: I've updated the Salair textures because I saw that while saving them in 32-bit format, they turned blurry due to being *a pixel* too big. I do apologize for those who may have downloaded them already... As I am learning this new world of possibilities, you'll have to forgive my OCD-like practices.

peterliddell: Here is one you painted up a while back on the older AI CV-440 model: Airways International. I found a little bit bigger tail logo and placed the text you had on your paint in the correct places on this new one. I will keep this one unless you say it is ok to release it on my Box account.

I tried my hand at another type of aircraft - The HTAI Cessna 402C. Compared to the other aircraft, this is more of the "spam-can" of the group. However, Florida had its fair share of Cessna 402's in great schemes. Florida Coastal, Airways International, and Cape Air are just a few. Check my Box account for this beaut'...

Here are some more DC-6's for y'all... The first two belong to Vortex Inc. (N11VX and N22VX). The third belongs in Africa somewhere, I believe... No visible reg's but it is 9Q-CYO. Once I get the .cfg's drawn up, they will be available for your consumption.

The competition to Bellomy-Lawson is just as iconic... just as diversified... just as joyous to see flying around: Trans Air Link. With direct service from the US to The US Virgin Islands, Jamaica, and other Caribbean destinations, both of these companies were at each other's throats. I'm looking for some good logos but I will take on TAL just like I did with Bellomy-Lawson. To start, N104DH and N105DH were operated by TAL for a little while in the early 1990's. Once I get the others painted, I'll release them in one big package with some FP's.
