Nice!!! . Be aware (if you're the same gent) that if you ever do one using *Maori* motifs, you run the risk of offending some Maori Iwi (people/tribe) - particularly if you're not familiar with what the motif may mean! What's Maori for "flies like a brick"?

One way of catching the Ferry if you missed it

Both paints seem to suit the aircraft.....great shots Dave.

Nice..its more "Pacifica" than Maori

These are by a forum member at Sim Outhouse and I doubt offending Maoris crossed his mind. He's a Scuba enthusiast.

I think my post may have been a bit confusing . That repaint looks like some generic "Pacific" type thing ... I was saying *IF* the author tried to do a specifically NZ/Maori repaint, then he'd run into trouble

I used to do the odd bit of Scuba diving ... when I could afford it

Know what you mean RD....WHAT A LOAD OF B/S

I obviously have not kicked anyone in the 'G' spot at SOH i don't understand the logitec mouse over that one ... pleased i'm not a big backpacker .

Read this thread over at Flightsim.com about email access etc to SOH. We have the same problem here on a smaller scale and have disccsued getting rid of G mail and Yahhoo accounts because of it but the workload isn't too bad here because of spam/bots.

Thats quite interesting Paul as if you join with xtra or telecom as it is now known you get an Yahoo email address, not an ISP one but a yahoo account. Comcast supply gmail address's, me I have been with gmail since it's inception. So it is going to come down to which ISP you join to what forums you can be part of......
Make ya wonder why one spends time dodging lead for the defense of democracy and freedom of choice.

Ahhh thats why I cant login at SOH, thought they just hated me or muted me, nevermind, its a bearpit anyway and not worth the effort

Bearpit?....while there are the odd heated discussion at times its usually quite civilised nowadays...most of the troublemakers have been bannned or have left.
