Recently I posted a few screenies of the Air India 747 repaint by Rick Sharma. I just wanted to say what a wonderful job he has done. Allot of you commented on the weathered fuselage and I think that is what makes this aircraft so real looking. You also asked who did the repaint and after a bit of research, I located the author. His name is Rick Sharma. The aircraft repaints are frame rate friendly and look amazing. I just wanted to "give mention" to Rick for his great contributions to the flight sim community. If you are interested in getting a few of his repaints, Avsim/search/sharma and there are a few nice ones!
Here are two examples of his work.

Keep up the great work Rick!
