Back to the nineties, in a classic way...

Bought the Captain 737 especially so I could paint her in this livery. She's quite tough to paint (that's an understatement :Thinking:)

 

Anyways, after almost a week and a half, this is the result... Enjoy our company!

Dickson, I hope you're referring to the model, euhm I mean the one without a skirt, euh I mean the plane ofcourse... :help:

 

Thanks all for the replies. She should be available within a few days, expect a week at the most together with the other liveries I'm working on.

Love the paint and the cockpit shot. How does it fly?

What's up with your flight director?

[vesalius 153]

Thanks for all the comments and sorry for the late answer. My system crashed over a week ago. I'm in the process of configuring and exploring my new rig. So painting comes on a second place at the moment.

 

She feels quite good in the sim. However many simmers, like me, think that she is overpowerd. I have her loaded up for 80% and 8t fuel on board. After take off with 2.04 EPR, flaps 5, +2500fps climb rate, she reaches 210-220kts within seconds... If you don't pay attention you blow the flaps out.

 

And during engine idle descend the speed drops to 210 at a -200/-2500 fpm... too bad.

So you can say that there is some room for tweaking. Luckily there's a flight dynamcs tweak on the Captain Sim 737 forum were the community shares their settings for static thrust, drag and other values that can be altered in the aircraft.cfg

@hms

The question is... what's up with the pilot :Just Kidding: I'm not so familiar with that old autopilot... was playing around with some knobs untill I had enough of them and took her in manually.
