Since piper commissioned Jonathan Alba to do the 1998 Air Toulouse paint, I finished up the rest of the FAIB 737-200 fleet for my 1998 Flightplans. The paints in the old yellow and blue ex-EAS 1994 livery are from ranmori 's EAS livery which I then added Air Toulouse logos and titles to. The others I made from scratch. The standard livery from 1994 is in this thread already. 1998 by piper and Jonathan Alba: 1994 White Nose: 1994 Black Nose: Albino: White with titles: Download Here

The original 1987 FedEx Feeder livery. In 1994, the new livery was introduced and all deliveries after late 1994 were in the new colors. The last planes in the old colors were painted by 2001. Morningstar in Canada did not get these colors. For FedEx Feeder Japan, this is the correct livery, but the Philippines Caravans in the 90s were all in the new colors as far as I know. In my drive I have modified the FedEx Feeder 2017 plans to represent everything from 1987 to 2017. The 1993 plans are all old colors, 1995 is a mix but mostly old, 1998 is a mix but mostly new, the other years are related to airport closures (KATT to KAUS and KMQT to KSAW) and ATRs being added in 2006 for Empire and 2010 for Mountain Air Cargo. I only did one tail number, because I couldn't find any evidence of even an "operated by" sticker between the different carriers, but I made a .cfg entry for the various carriers that wore this livery. I saved the photoshop file, so if someone feels like making every single tail number like the painter who did the modern fleet did, be my guest, but I'm not doing that crap LOL.

I recently knocked out some of the paints needed for Grupo TACA 1998. All the 737s are done for the various carriers between myself and Eduardo (though the Aviateca colors 737-200 was only done on the UTT model and I don't plan to do it on the FAIB model myself). Lots of variations lead to me updating the plans to represent them all. There were so many variations that I just decided to do the fleet basically. I plan to do the Airbuses eventually, the 767-300s could be a little tough for me, probably won't do those other than this easy one I did already. As the aircraft without full markings were constantly operating flights for the various Grupo TACA carriers, some paints are shared between carriers. The last 737-300 and 767-200 in the fleet both had their liveries removed in early 1998, while the 2 767-300s were one in the 80s colors and 1 in the new colors. The Shorts SD3-60 is done already by someone else, maybe I'll do the ATRs. Maybe. 1998 was the end of the regular liveries, by 1999, sans the odd ball TACA albinos, all the rest of these airlines lost their identity to Grupo TACA. Here is the fleet of TACA of El Salvador...well, the types I painted, anyway: FAIB 737-200: Download the TACA FAIB 737-200 fleet here: drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/1SdsGVqN7zgt14VatBL7I77GuMOKlcgMLFAIB 737-300: Download the TACA FAIB 737-300 here: drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/1Q6Q0L0F_bp6xdUPBBVQv25HrM7c-181RFAIB 767-200: Download the TACA FAIB 767-200 here: drive.google.com/drive/folders/12AGK6GC7M9g-dD3lMX684Lr5QDKzSJC_?usp=sharingNext up is LACSA of Costa Rica old colors paints are my edits of Eduardo's paints: FAIB 737-200 fleet: Download the FAIB 737-200 LACSA fleet here: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1yofD0GRvJJtAr-gjx_8Wdz-vgTyvrwFh?usp=sharingFAIB A320: Download the FAIB LACSA A320 white nose variant here: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1tZSDd0GPHibklsL6C-19leOweEsSpQap?usp=sharingNow on to NICA of Nicaragua. NICA had just 1 aircraft, and it spent about half the year in a very short-lived new livery that was worn for less than a year at which time it got the new Grupo TACA colors. I painted the new NICA livery already and it is in this thread a few pages back. Here is the same aircraft in the Grupo TACA colors, pick whichever livery you'd rather see it flying in: Download the FAIB 737-200 NICA Grupo TACA livery here: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1c__srWXSqhQSkchZGqS1myUwR5YUk5Ga?usp=sharingFinally, Aviateca of Guatemala. They got rid of the 737-300s by the end of 1997, and the 737-200s were quickly repainted with just a few wearing the old colors by the summer of 1998. Which, again, I didn't paint.

I've still got dozens of paints I've made/modified to release, just time-consuming to share it here but I'll slowly get around to it. I did a lot of Northwest AIG DC-9 conversions, but since someone had those in progress, I'm debating if it is worth my time to share them as with my luck he'll release them the next day LOL. Anyway, how's this for "out of left field" as us Americans say? FedEx Fokker 27 fleet for the CPAI model! Represents each carrier and livery to operate FedEx Fokker 27s, including FedEx Europe, FedEx Feeder, and FedEx Feeder Canada. As only 29 of these Fokkers were ever bought by FedEx, with the majority staying in the US, many of the European carriers only had 1 in the fleet or just a few at most. They were first delivered in 1988 to Mountain Air Cargo, who operated them all over the United States (and later, all over North America) rather than just in one geographical area like they did with their Caravan fleet. Basically, until the mid-1990s, most current FedEx Feeder ATR routes were flown by Mountain Air Cargo Fokker 27s, then Empire Air started to get some as well. In 1990, Morningstar Air Express received at least 1 Fokker 27 to form FedEx feeder Canada, and several European carriers also received Fokker 27s to operate as FedEx Europe in Germany, the UK, Italy, Switzerland, Ireland and Belgium. Between 1992 and 1994, the FedEx Europe Fokkers all ended up at Empire or Mountain Air Cargo in the US. The first Mountain Air Cargo Fokker 27 got the new 1994-introduced livery in the summer of 1999, while Empire Air got their first Fokker repainted in the fall of 2000. Though by 2003 most were repainted in the new livery, a few Fokkers ended up flying in the original livery until retirement in 2005. I made flightplans for the FedEx Feeder carriers but didn't really take these Fokkers into account, I will update them and upload my representative 90s Morningstar Air Express plans as well based off the 2009 plans (which are almost identical to the current 2020 plans I use in terms of routes, so probably very accurate for the 90s still other than fleet types). Flightplans needed for FedEx Europe, I have too much on my plate one of you can do them lol. Proper callsigns included in the aircraft.cfg entries. New colors are color-matched to Michael Pearson's paints while the old colors are color-matched to my Caravan in the 80s colors. In addition to painting these for Christian Page's model, I have also modified the PBR textures done by an AIG member for those of you using P3Dv4/5. I added a "CARGO" folder to the PBR/master texture folder with the windows all plugged in the lightmaps, cabin lights, and PBR texture files. Just drop the "texture" folder in your CPAI Fokker 27 folder, and add the provided texture.cfg to any liveries with plugged windows or no windows for proper cargo lighting.

Some 707s I created off of hybrid paints by others to retire DWAI textures, especially since some of my DWAI 707s have the tails and noses messed up. Did Dee Waldron at some point change the texture layout so older textures don't work with the most "modern" DWAI 707 or something? Very odd. Royal Jordanian 707-300C 1984 NAAI (combined the Royal Jordanian Cargo 707 paint with a JARO hybrid livery off Avsim in a huge Romanian 707 package). Download HereNigeria Airways Cargo 707-300C NAAI by Brian Wheatley, I just converted it to the cargo form. Sadly, the pretty bare metal was painted over by time these birds became freighters.

More random crap you say? Why, yes. Yes I do. HJG DC-8-50FMid to late 1990s Transcontinental Airlines DC-8-50F fleet, including a lone American International hybrid. For use with my upcoming Transcontinental plans. Download HereZANTOP\Transcontinental hybrid DC-8-50F, used for the short-lived 1997-98 Daylight Air operation based out of HUF, also used for standard ZANTOP flying. Download HereHJG DC-8-62American International DC-8-62, based off the DC-8-50F livery from HJG. Download HereFAIB A320:Shaheen Air International is operated by Constellation Airlines. Not used in my Shaheen flightplans (though they operated a lot of aircraft for a short time and you can replace a 737-400 with this), but used in these full colors around Western Europe by Constellation in 1998. Download HereAIA 727-200First Air very briefly had a First Air Cargo subsidiary operating this lone 727-200F between YVR and DAY for Emery Worldwide in 1998, alongside the ICC Cargo A300 doing the same flying. Flightplans included in my upcoming late 90s Emery Worldwide modified plans. Livery based off the First Air 727-200 on Avsim, but this livery was a bit different and I had to make much of it myself, too. Was gone by 2000 or late 1999. Download HereAIA 727-100I never realized Jason King's "Skybus" livery was not the 80s pax 727 of Skybus but the Flying Tigers bird, of which Skybus operated most for Flying Tigers in the 80s (they didn't operate their own 727s, Evergreen also flew them). Though most Skybus 727s appeared with no titles or tail logo, at one point many of them did have full Tigers titles. I used Jason's paint to re-make the paint I had converted from a fake 727-200 livery that had flat grey instead of bare metal. Killer job on this, Jason really stellar jet. Download HereAIA MD-81In 1990/91, Balair very briefly wore this livery on the MD-81, A310, and MD-87 before switching to the similar BalairCTA livery used until it was acquired by Air Belin. The Balair fleet was mostly still in the 70s colors in the early 90s. I'll probably do the MD-87 eventually, this was harder than I expected to modify so I lost interest. Based off the BalairCTA paint I think by Eduardo? Download HereAIA DC-9-32CFSwissair Cargo 1979. Was operated in these colors from early 1980 until about 1981 or so, the only freighter Swissair had at the time. Was briefly also operated in the old colors. In the 1979/80 AI project thread I have added representative plans for this aircraft. Based off the 1979 Swissair DC-9-30 repaint off Flightsim.com. Download HereOSP ATR72Trans World Express 1992. Transworld Express was the wholly-owned regional affiliate of TWA (callsign "REDBIRD") acquired from Pan Am (who had acquired Ransome Airlines). In 1989, the first aircraft got the red TWA stripes, but in 1992 when the ATR72s were delivered, TWA removed the stripes from the livery. In 1993, the stripes were brought back. So really, Eduardo's 1993 plans should have a bunch of planes in this livery and only a few with stripes. In 1995, this carrier failed and Trans States began doing the TWA Express stuff. Didn't do the ATR42 yet either. For now, I just removed the stripes from Eduardo's paints...but this was not really possible without messing up details and stuff so I'll take his TWA decals and re-do these from a blank paint kit one day. Download HereRFSL CRJ-200SkyWest house colors 2003 (based off the 2002 30th anniversary livery, a few planes in the fleet got these modified colors and were used by all SkyWest CRJ customers (mostly Delta and United). The 30th-anniversary plane itself wore the "30th" titles until the mid 2000s then got this modification as well. Worn until the early 2010s, maybe 2010 or 2011. Original by Michael Pearson. SkyWest house colors 2005, flew alongside the above other house colors also until about 2010 or 2011 or so, maybe a little later. There were more in this livery than the more colorful one. Again, flew for all SkyWest CRJ-200 customers but mostly United and Delta. Tail based off the above livery by Michael Pearson, fuselage from his Delta Connection 2000s colors. Nice to retire more AIM CRJs. Download HereDWAI DHC-7Trans World Express 1992 based off Eduardo's paint, stripes began being reapplied to planes in 93 and by 94 they were all back to being stiped. Download HerePAI Jetstream 31\32Trans World Express 1992 (these aircraft mostly flew on in these colors until being retired in 1995, Trans States flew DIFFERENT Jetstreams mostly and these ones went to the desert in the white livery). The other livery was worn by some Trans States Jetstreams from 1995 until 1998, but seldom photographed. Both by Eduardo Villanueva just modified by me. Download Here

Please check the original post as I have updated links to paints that I am hosting for others including most members of the 1998 project who have painted aircraft, like Ranmori Scythe, some contributors like piper, and temp hosting for files lost in the Avsim hack needed for my flightplans. I have also started deleting old paints (which were always meant to be temporary) now that others have given proper repaints of British Midland, Turkish, ect. MSFS update: For models that have an FSX native model, like the AIA 727-200, OSP ATR, etc, my .DDS paints for P3D will work in MSFS. This is so long as you use the FSX-native model and not an AIG or FSTL-converted MSFS-native model. For example, AIG is about to release the converted 727-200 with OCI for MSFS. If you use that, then these repaints will not work without modification. If you cannibalize their 727 conversions and plug in the FSX-native models from Avsim and use those, then it will save you time. Note that all FAIB conversions by AIG at the moment use the FSX-native models so my repaints will work for those as is. For MSFS native models that must be used in the many cases where there are no FSX-native models (such as with most TFS models, the NAAI Fokker 50, and many others), I will be uploading MSFS versions of those paints with MSFS format aircraft.cfg entries over the next few weeks. Though AI has a looooooong way to go in MSFS to work as well as it does in P3D, FS9, and FSX, I am convinced that it is the way of the future, and even with a good PC, I simply get much, much better frame rates with much better graphics than I can run in P3Dv5 with high traffic levels and add-on scenery. So, it is hard to go back and use P3D for much these days other than AI immersion. I will gradually start releasing things MSFS native paints without P3D versions at some point this year when the traffic situation is more acceptable. That all said, for now, everything is in P3Dv4\5 format like normal. Here are some things I've made since July when I last posted: FSPX A330-200:Lufthansa 2000sI found that no one has painted the Lufthansa A330-200 on the TFS or FSPX models, and it is needed for the 2003 MRAI plans. I adapted one of the paints by mikeblaze to the PW A330-200 model. It is just a rough representation for now, retaining the A330-300 reg and decals, so that those of you with early 2000s traffic can see it until someone does a proper paint one day. Download HereFAIB A320:Canada 3000 (red engines)My Canada 3000 paints are all adapted from Eduardo Villanueva's Air 2000 repaints, who wore the same livery in the 1990s. I did notice, however, that some of the aircraft had all-red engines in the 1990s. So I updated my 1998 plans accordingly and made this 2nd Canada 3000 variation to go with them. Download HereCDAI L-1011-500:Air Zarco 1999 (TAP hybrid)I really, really hate this model. Lol. Someone from HJG gave me an unfinished L-1011-500 AI version of their flyable model a while back and I converted it to work properly in P3Dv4\5. However, modifying repaints from the Tristar 1 to the -500 took about 2-3 hours for each of the few airlines I did it for (though they look amazing and are surprisingly OK on FPS). Given the difficulty of conversions, the fact HJG never even released the flyable model and thus it has no paints yet to download, and the lack of a paint kit, I decided to do this one on the CDAI model from scratch. It represents Air Zarco (today known as Euro Atlantic) at their very start in the late 1990s with this ex-TAP L-1011-500 before they became Air Maderia and changed their livery a few months later. The Air Medaira livery is out, and both are correct for the 1999 plans, but as this one was funkier and the other livery is fine for a 2000 representation, here is this one if you wish to use it. Download HereAIA 727-200:Delta Air Lines 1995-1996 Olympics StickerMikey did an awesome job with his P3Dv4\5 Delta 727 fleet. Though he did 1996 Olympic sticker versions (which were worn fleet-wide in 1995/96) of the 727s, the winglets and shuttle variations were missing that version, so I went ahead and made them using his other paints to represent 1995/1996 and complete his 727 set. Teamwork makes the dream work. Download HereFAIB 737-500:Southwest 1987 Delivery colorsA quick modification of Eduardo Villanueva's Southwest 737-500 paint to represent the aircraft up until the #1 heart was introduced to the livery in 1995. Download HereFAIB 737-300Southwest Airlines ex-American Airlines 1991Southwest Airlines 1987Southwest Airlines 1987 Spirit of KittyhawkIn 1991, Southwest acquired American's ex-AirCal 737-300 fleet and deployed the aircraft on the US West Coast for expansion. They operated in hybrid colors until early 1992 or so. I made that from scratch atop chrome textures by Eduardo Villanueva. I edited Eduardo's 737-300 standard and Spirit of Kitty Hawk liveries to reflect the 1987-introduced livery that came with the 737-500s and was worn up until the #1 heart was added in 1995.

I am temporarily hosting the Impulse AI paints until someone can get a hold of them and see if they can rehost their repaints that were also lost to the Avsim hack. For now, I just did the paints needed for the 1998 plans and a few others I remembered off the top of my head. Feel free to request more if they are not already on Avsim (double check please because some of their paints are still downloadable in the Avsim library). Impulse AI Paints hosted here: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1KysetvIRrsRVBmepjWwhQ4vobu7Ci062?usp=sharingAlso, here is something random I forgot to share before based off Brian Wheatley's excellent AirCal 737-200 in the post-American hybrid colors (worn from 1986-late 1988 or very early 1989): Download here: drive.google.com/drive/folders/10PSTOcrhveeWBHiqEWsaAgOIKfWwpJnE?usp=drive_link

One by request of the man who owns the front fuselage section of this aircraft, retried after being the team plane of the Charlotte Hornets basketball team in the late 1990s, operated by TC Aviation. Prior to that, the aircraft flew for RAM and then the vividly painted US start-up Prestige Airways. I already made flightplans for this aircraft in the 1998 thread. Just updated it.
