Here's the 1998 fleet for Transmeridian! The 1995 livery was the sunset over water and the "T" was the 1997-introduced livery. By 1998, all the A320s(except the Albino and Chrysler jet) wore the 1997 livery, however, the 1 727-200 left doing regular charter work, N281US, did not wear that livery until 1999. Regardless, I painted the A320 in the 1995 livery and 727 in the 1999 livery as well so that you may make this mid 1990s plans if you wish or use the paints how you wish. The Albino was just another charter bird and the Chrysler A320 flew DTW-SNN-DUS as an employee shuttle and doesn't park on passenger gates but at the FBO instead. The 727 flying for Aeropostal was repainted into the 1997 introduced livery in 1999, and an A320 was painted in Aeropostal colors. I did not paint that one as I find the 727 more interesting. Titles were applied to the Albino(but no tail or engine logos) in 1999 as well, but I chose the pure Albino. I used Eduardo's TransAer tail(they were the European version of Transmeridian) for the 1997 livery 727, but made the logo myself for the A320 since it has an HD resolution.

I found a great source for Shaheen Air International's start-up fleet of 2 hybrid 737-400s, so I created them. Philippe Tabatchnik made the MAS 737-400 livery, and I modified it for Shaheen and created a new tail for it. I made the Pegasus hybrid from scratch. Check out this Pakistani aviation blog, this talented artist has painted every retro hybrid known to be flown by PIA, Aero Asia, Shaheen Air, ect.

I used this NAAI 707-300C in the 1991 MEA livery to create the Espace Aviation Services 707 which was operated by MEA in 1998 and used for the flightplans, but I was unable to find it afterwards on Avsim or in the usual box accounts/Google Drives. I seem to recall I knew the person, but can't remember. Any help is appreciated so I can give them credit. Conversion for this jet was plugging the windows, covering the titles, and taking the time to extend the cheatline through where the MEA titles once were. I thought it was odd that a fly-by-night Gambian airline would take the time to do that, but it's interesting. This aircraft spent a lot of time in OST.

2 for you; Eduardo's Olympic 727-200 in the 1994 livery converted to storage for my 1998 plans, and Tahoe Air! Tahoe Air was a KTVL based start up, operated by Casino Air, that flew a single 737-200 on a TVL-LAX-SJC-TVL route. KTVL is one of the most gorgeous airports on the planet, but in 1999, the locals were fed up with noisy jets(despite the fact that airline traffic had fallen to about 3-4 flights per day after having had 10-20/day for decades). 2 1999 start ups were using TVL at the time; Tahoe Air, and a tiny little DC-9 operator named Allegiant Air flying BUR/LAS-TVL and later LGB-TVL. To appease the locals, TVL kicked out tiny little Allegiant Air putting their faith in the home-town start up. Big mistake. Tahoe Air failed within a few months, and Allegiant Air went on become one of the largest LCCs on earth. The locals used the failure of Tahoe Air, the first time TVL had 0 airline service in decades, to ban airline traffic. By 2000, there was no air service and that trend has lasted for 20 years(though Horizon Air did try and fail to get the rights for flights). Since sierraair was kind enough to make plans for this short-lived 1999 start-up that Bay Area planespotters hold dear to our hearts, I painted it up! Thank you to my friend Ben Wang for the close up shot of the tail or I'd have not been able to manage this.

Why not just finish the last half of historic air service to KTVL?

Here is the Allegiant Air DC-9-14 that started it all! To go with the 1999 flightplans I just made in my 1998 project flightplans thread based off the initial schedule of Allegiant Air.

As a big fan of French aviation, I decided to paint the missing textures for our recent 1998 flightplans. Note, the Fokker 28 was a -2000 but I only had models for the -1000, 3000, and 4000 so I picked the -1000 which most closely matches the -2000. Also, for the World tails, sources were limited so on some models, the tail is backwards on one side. Best I could do for now, I'm no mikeblaze or ranmori . I'll update when possible. Here are the required paints for Air Liberte active in 1998-99, all color matched to Jason's DC-10s:

Here are the 2 paints needed for Flandre Air, which flew as an Air Liberte regional carrier in 1998. The B1900C and standard livery EMB-120(which was an Albino with a logo on the nose) are in Linguistpilot's box account. Thanks to Eduardo for the metal engines on the EMB-120, as I used one of his paints for them.

Here are missing AOM paints, I painted all 3 737-500s in the fleet(one in special colors) and the special MD-80 livery from scratch, but the white nose MD-80 is by Jens Dohrn, so all credit goes to him for that one as I just removed the black from the nose and changed the tail number. For the SD/Cone modeled MD-80s needed for these plans, just use Jens's livery on Avsim and make 2 .cfg entries, one with an SD tail and 1 with a Cone tail.

Here are 3 paints needed for Tunisair 1998. 2 made from scratch, but I borrowed parts of Eduardo's 1994 A320 to make my (crappy) HD version of the 50 year special livery. I found the 737-600 in the old colors (tail stripes go below the stabilizer down the fuselage) in an old WOAI package, so just the Tuninter ATR-42 is needed but I don't plan on making it.
