High Roller!

[EricK]

Hi there,
Here are a few shots of my recent departure out of Las Vegas in COF. If you like the plane, this repaint comes in 7 versions and is available at all the big sites.
Hope you enjoy
Eric

Dawn in Vegas. Getting all the electronics up and running.


Cabin door open. Ready for our high rolling passengers to board.


Taxiing out and checking all the systems. Reverse thrusters, spoiler, flaps.


Just after rotation with the rising sun in our eyes


Gear is coming up and we are away!


As we climb up through the light clouds we get one last view of this crazy city


At last some peace and quite, out over the Nevada desert, just as the sun is hitting the mountain tops

isn't that the default learjet?  ???

nice shots anyway!  ;)

[EricK]

It is just the default lear 45. I just meant this repaint of it is available and comes in different colours. (I just didn't want people to think I painted it!) Its a basic repaint, but in my opinion, looks better.

Anyway thanks
Eric

Thanks for the comments,
Vegas in COF is great. Not too much has changed aside from the superior ground textures and of course the sky. Overall, it does seem much better though, especially on approach or departure. Instead of the strip and large hotels standing out like a sore thumb amongst the autogen, it all seems to blend better and is more realistic.

P.S. I absolutely love the new lear.

Hey Eric,
Have you checked out the lear package at ASIM. It comes with a 1/2 dozen repaints with all the popular casinos sponsored on each one!

I have seen those. I have yet to download them, but I plan to very soon. This was my first time to Vegas in COF and after seeing how great it looks, I definately plan a few more visits. The lear would definately be fun with the hotel logos on it!!

If I remember correctly, it is quite a big file.

Hey, did you ever see these I posted? They are from FS2002.

I had a look at your thread. That is a terrific plane and those are some spectacular shots. I particulary like the wing view shot, with the girl painted on the engine cowling. Very cool!

Some nice shots. The default Lear is really good.

There's one Lear that's always parked at Pearson Airport that I see every time I drive by. It's all white with a black Ace on the tail. Perhaps you could do a repaint of that.

[Rifleman]

Is that the Ace of Spades I have seen on Derry Rd on the north side of Field Aviation ?...I seem to remember a 727 sitting there all the time with markings like that ?

[Polynomial]

simply brilliant looking screenshots!! Las Vegas looks stunning as does the aircraft.

Yep that's the one. I guess it is a 727 now that I think about it.

[EricK]

The 727 with the ace of spades that you guys are seeing is an 'All Canadian Express' cargo aircraft and there are tons of them across Canada. The repaint is available through 'aardvark', if you're interested!
