NZFF

I scrubbed up a paint for the mike stone F27 and did some window adjustments to the old grey ones and mod config files. It works well with the hawker siddeley 748 panel/sound in!
Now just have to find some undercarriage for them and then the only thing letting her down is VC.

First the old red

NZTG was the place to be today for test flying

Now my maiden flight for AirWork Aotearoa

Some passes O/H NZTG


After low approach overshoot off to Base NZNS

Finally Gear down in to NZNS

Cheers

Nice! Let me know when they're finished

Blake ! some real old time NAC colours ! , brilliant effort . .......... Its Strange no real Foker has done a brilliant VC hi details model

Theres is a payware one thats pretty cool with a VC ..FSX

oh no the first 2 i got the paint scheme off flightsim.com modified the windows in the to make them look real
This is my paint job of airwork/nz post I'm just making it up as i go but i think this will be the last modification here it is.
On my way to NZWN

Over NZPN into Blenheim

Mike Mike Mike , thats not the Fokker, its a bloody F50 , the 27 is so much cooler and noisery or whinery

If that's the same F50 i think you guys are talking about it's pretty good looking... can't comment on it's flight characteristics though... The engines on my one cut out when I apply full throttle. Bizarre!

Big Diff between a 27 and 50 or least enough to say not New Zealand

Oh my bad ive only just woken up again today ,working late nights /mornings ,,so its a f50 sorry about that guys ,i like the look of these older aircraft anyway and it would have to sound good so a good f27 would be nice with a VC for sure

You guys are mad

Waka that Airwork scheme has to be the most boring and unoriginal paint scheme ever to find it's way on to an aircraft.....boring white with a small uninteresting logo on the tail and dull font airline insignia.
Dont get me wrong. I am not complaining about your work in the repaint just the actual operators lack of originality.
Are you going to make your NAC and Air NZ repaints available....at least to mates .....wink.....wink

sup bro that Air work scheme thingie was just for my personal use flying cargo around NZ bring a bit of home to me just like my Seneca,Pitts,172,182rg.
When flying away from home gives me a bit of excitement.
As i said those Air New Zealand paints i got off flightsim i just modified the windows and config file to make look more real.

Could do Ian have to get on TS sometime to see how to do it.
Only had paint shop for a week now only flying 3 days a week got sum time on me hands

Dont forget the RNZAirforce schemes

ahh the old f-27, my first airline flights were on an anz 737-200 out of chc in to wlg, then on an ANZ f-27 to wanganui, i remember climbing out of WLG over the hills, what a rough ride, i still remember the engine noise, love those old fashioned engines and the noise they make!!

Yes yes yes Ian,..............BIG difference........
F50 = P&W Turboprops
F27 = Rolls Royce Darts,........ Real Engines, with that absolutely UNIQUE and unforgettable sound !!

Very nice looking paints for Mike's old F27 model, ........but missing a very IMPORTANT one ,..................
NAC "Wings of the Nation" paintjob...........

I have the same problem with the FSX F50 so I never use full throttle for more than about 15 seconds it takes off very nicely using about 7/8 throttle or even less but yes it is a very nice Aircraft.
But I would still like very much to get an F27 with VC for FSX

Hey Waka. Any chance of getting a copy of the repaints for the white Airwork scheme? Would love a copy.
Have you uploaded these to simviation or flightsim (or avsim for that matter?)
