Lost in Translation

[Aztec]

I've been meaning for a long time to have a go at repainting Owen Hewitt's B206, so thought this would be a good subject. It's an ex-Japanese Police machine that is now operated by Heliwork in Central Victoria.



I just have to re-jig the alpha a little bit to give a little more shine, and then it should be up at Avsim in the next few days.

Since joining up here at NZFF it has renewed my enthusiasm to do a little repainting, so before too long I'll try to knock out a couple of ZK- paints.

From Orstrailya are you flying outta Sideknee

Nah Ian, that's Essendon in Melbourne, can't you tell by the grey skies? Was in Melbourne for the weekend so thought I'd use it as a backdrop (the shot doesn't show how bloody windy it was though!)

As a sidenote, when we went to fly home the lines for Jetstar were nearly out the door of the terminal - maybe a product of Tiger being shut down by CASA. I was glad we were getting on Qantaslink,

Thanks Charl, there are some really good subjects there - I'm starting to wish there was a aerial spraying version of this model!
