P-3C VP56 Dragons

My dad was in squadron VP56 "Dragons" back in the mid 70's, so I decided to repaint the KBT team's Lockheed/Kawasaki P3C Orion.

This is plane number 9, in the fleet, accurate tail number. Funny thing is, they used plane number 9 for spare parts since it never really worked  :D

Should I add it to the database? I guess I probably need to get permission from the KBT team.

It's up in the database. Hopefully there's nothing wrong with it. On my computer, sometimes the starboard half of the texture is blurred, and I have to zoom in, then zoom out to get it back to normal. But my computer is crap, so hopefully it doesn't do that on anyone else's.
