Royal Swazi National Airlines' Fokker 28-3000 as it appeared in 1998, flightplans are completed. This aircraft holds 2 records; The only commercial aircraft to be hijacked twice and the only commercial aircraft to be riddled with bullets during commercial service twice. Oh my.

I will eventually paint the Fokker 100 used in 1996.

Just had a look on JetPhotos and it clearly shows the B.A marking dated 1998.It would seem they were also flying a BAE 146 around the same period in similar markings.Life gets tedious.However,In my experience I have known times when the scheduled aircraft was unservicable an airline will use what is available.

AFAIK BAe aircraft were leased from WDL Aviation in the beginning of '00s.

Some time ago, Robert Dennard uploaded great repaints for almost the entire Reno Air fleet onto Avsim as "roaflt.zip". It not only included every special livery, of which Reno Air had several, but it also include each individual aircraft that we in the fleet at a certain point in time, I think 1997? Well, I modified those paints to re-created the many bastard-hybrid aircraft Reno Air operated in their final days in 1999 in the last months before they merged with American Airlines. The merger was announced in February 1999 with Reno Air already a large codeshare partner for AA, and the last flights were in August of that same year. In that time, many of the plans had various forms of titles or logos painted over, and AA stickers were applied to many of them as well. Some of the AA stickers were already peeling off by the summer, which I included. The aircraft started to appear in a white American Airlines livery as soon as October 1999. I have also included one MD-83 in these colors, which is a crappy modification of FSMuseum 's AA MD-80. Finally, I included the last 5 Reno Air MD-80s used in the 1999 plans that were not yet painted, to complete the fleet. Reno Air had a large SJC hub by the end of their life, and I have many happy memories of watching these jets come in and out of SFO and SJC.

The first part of Grupo TACA to be completed is NICA of Nicaragua, who only wore this transitional livery for most of 1998 between the old colors and the Grupo TACA livery which it was painted in by 1999.

Here are 2 modification's of the late Billy Rutherford's Champion 727-200, one with the short-lived gold stripe livery and another with no tail logo and a green engine cowling. Both required for the 1998 plans.

The problem is, I can no longer find the file on Avsim\Flightsim so I'm not sure who the author was! I think it may have been Ralf Maylin? If anyone figures out where to find this Reno Air fleet file and who made it, please let me know! In the meantime, here they are:

It is by Robert Dennard and is avialable on avsim.
