I'm trying to create Ozark traffic for the early '70s and need an FH-227 for it. The repaint is on Avsim, and it calls for Dee Waldron's FH-227 model. I can't find any sign of it anywhere, although the main texture file is called "FH227.bmp"
Anyone here know anything about this and where I might be able to find it?
There's a possiblility that what's really needed is the old version 1 F-27, but I'm not sure, and I don't know where to find that either.
Thanks for any help you can lend!

I have the plane on my desktop, which I won't have with me here in Chicago until next month, when I'll retrieve it from Oklahoma City. I can send it to you then if nobody else has it and sends it to you first. I don't know why the texture file is named for the FH-227, but that's the way it came from Dee. The OZ repaint is a "fake" FH-227 in that it's really an F-27 with an extra window added via the paint job to mimic the FH-227. What year are you working on? My repaint may not be the right one, as it's accurate for 1971, but OZ modified their scheme on those planes in the 1970's - not sure when, but I've seen the newer scheme circa 1975.

Many thanks to you both. I'm all set now. The project I'm working on is trying to focus on the very early '70s, so this is the correct scheme.
But I started to think maybe I would really rather do the late '60s. In the end I imagine I'll either end up doing that also, or maybe doing a blend of the two, based on about 1970, but going a few years either way with different airlines depending on what schedules and repaints are available.
Thanks again!
...Dave
