Best laid plans...

I was going to do a repaint for St. Paddy's Day, but forgot about it. This was the best I could find in my hangar.

So Happy St. Patrick's Day.

Thanks for looking. :)

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Thanks Chuck. :)

No, it's the Long Island Classics Eagle II for FS9 updated to FSX and I have never been able to get the gauges to show up. And I have not flown it enough to justify buying the IRIS model. But right now, I can't remember whose repaint or where I got it. Have to find the zip file, which is getting increasingly difficult. ::)

Try editing the Alpha Channel of gaugeglass.bmp. Palette Index 50 works for me. http://www.simviation.com/phpupload/uploads/1300418979.jpg

Other VC textures might need a few more tweaks to get it right.

Very nice scenery. What is it? Is it a freebie? The airplane is quite sharp, too.
