Looking bloody good Naki,

Nice work Naki!
the 727 has to be one of the most "right" looking airliners in history happy.gif
Where'd you find that repaint? I remember searching for it ages ago and couldn't find one

The RNZAF 727 holds a special place for me in history and my heart - it was one of the first aircraft I ever flew in after joining the RNZAF. I was even lucky enough to get a jump seat ride from NZOH into NZWN as a young fella, after having provided security for the aircraft during one of the Queen's visits (years and years ago)!! Despite it not being in active service, I still have it in my 'fleet' for prosperities sake. I'm not too sure on the repaint as I have an older version of the Captain Sim model and used the repaint that is available from both flightsim.com and Avsim. I've not had much luck adding direct download links in the past but here goes!!!!

PS - Looks like Naki beat me by a few minutes while I figured out how to add the link and a picture!! DOH
