Hey!

I'm looking for a repaint of the XLoad F-18D. Specifically this paint scheme: http://www.airliners.net/photo/USA---Marines/McDonnell-Douglas-F-A-18D/1480165/L/&sid=7a9fa2807cbbda5617c5247b9ae7e496

It belongs to the VMFA(AW)-225 Vikings squadron. :D
Has anyone run across it?

You could try messaging Dax ( David Sweetman ) on the forums. Or request the livery on there.

Wait for the avsim library to come back up, there is one over there exactly like you are looking for.  It was released in April of this year so go to FSX repaints, sort by date and look in releases for April of this year.

You go also go to sim-outlhouse and look, it maybe there also.

Thanks! It's not in Sim-Outhouse. Already looked there.

But I'll wait patiently for avsim to come back then! There are more repaints exclusively on avsim for other aircraft, so I can't wait :P.

The F/A-18D that the person who started this tread was asking about is the two seat version.  This is available from Captain Sim and you have to have Acceleration installed because the Captain Sim F/A18D needs some of the Acceleration F/A-18A files.

So, turns out that the file I waited for those months is one of the files that is broken beyond repairing, so it won't download :(. Has anyone found this skin made by Marc Leblanc anywhere else, possibly?

I sent an email to Marc to let him know the situation and asked him to upload the repaint to avsim again.  Hopefully his email address has not changed and you will see the Vikings paint in the next day or two back on avsim.

Yeah man, someone actually entered that for the FSX Blue Angels repaint competition and won :D. The download link can be found on their multimedia->downloads page, or simply here:
http://fsxblueangels.com/downloadsMARPAT.html


Now about the VMFA(AW)-225 repaint. Since Marc uploaded his skin right before the library went offline again, I still can't reach it. Could someone PM me his email adres please? Or could you ask him to upload it to flightsim.com or something? Because it is taking a very long time now...
