Hello.
As I am currently working on a Saudia 1979 FlightPlan, I would like to ask someone, if you could help me with some paints. Here´s the list:
Boeing -707-300 Pax -737-200 Pax -747-100/200=>leased from MEA
Douglas -DC-8 +F
Fokker -F27
Lockheed -L-1011 PAX (already available)
I would find it very sad, if I had to release the Flight Plans wiht no appropiate Aircraft. So please, give yourselves a push to help me!
BTW: Emirates 1987 is completed with the Paints and should be soon up.
Regards.

Stefan, Here's a related picture... I took this is the Summer of 1996 at Ardmore, Oklahoma (KADM), this Saudia 747-100 was one of many planes being broken apart at the time. It's dark because it was near sunset and I had to stay on the taxiways, which put the sun behind the plane.

you know, by playing around with the alpha channel, we can actually make it looke like the nose cone, rudder and engines have been taken off <jk>

Hi. Thnaks for the replies. It´s sad to see such a grand lady in an situation like that. Actually, what I ment and I think I didn´t formulate it porbably, is that I am looking for someone who can paint the fleet for me. So, please RAI paint the planes for me!!! Regards. -STEFAN-SUN_KING-

After the lease it spent some time operating out of LGW in full SV colours on sub charters before it met its end. For this time frame it was two leased MEA 747-200 SCD's. I do have some pictures on them somewhere!! I flew on one of them in the late 80's when it was on lease to BA as G-BLVF in combi config. Flew SVO - LHR on her. Paul

Thanks, Peter!!!
Great to see more and more paints from the Middle East!
BTW: Looking at the Aardvark 737 - anybody else think the windshield-windows are too small???

Gorgeous, great, thank you so much, for the paints!!! If you´d do the DC-8, F27 and Tristar, then it´ll be completed. Is it possible to also create a Rolce Royce 747? Regards. -STEFAN-SUN_KING-

The paintkit on the 707 is a little bit off, i did some playing around with it this morning and i should have a better adjusted one done tonight. Also, the F27, anyone have a pic of one of these? It seems they didn't last long in service (75-78) and there are no pics in the normal archives. And Dc-8... is this for Pax or Cargo version?

I think it´s best to paint the F27 like the rest of the fleet e.g. 737, that´s how I think they looked like. The DC-8 in both , as it was a convertible version with a SCD.

Regards. -STEFAN-SUN_KING- Yes but what im asking is do you want the version with the Cargo titles or are these planes on passenger/hadj flights? The titles got painted over when they were in passenger config.

Then I think it would be better to do both. I have them on Cargo Schedules, but since I ´m not completely through i think there could be some Pax Flights with them to.
I really appreciate, what you´re doing. Thanks a lot.
Regards.
