LIVERY REQUEST - DASH 8 Q400 - US COAST GUARD

Gentlemen,

 

I was wondering if the talented repaint maters might consider a US Coast Guard Dash 8 Q400 Livery.  I understand there is at least one such aircraft in service.

 

Also from what I understand, the US Department of Homeland Security and US Customs are operating at least one such aircraft a piece (no markings other than the reg number - unknown).  I'd love to have a plain jane livery for such flights.

 

What spurs my request is that this has proved to be an excellent VFR aircraft to check out the terrific AI Shipping freeware that was recently released.  Below is a link to two large ships intercepting one another off of Miami (I supposed they technically collided) but it's really interesting to see and the ship models are EXCELLENT.  I should also like to point out that different ships, on different courses show up at different times as I've made several short hops from Tampa to Miami and each time I see completely different ships on different headings.  Really nice stuff!  Can't wait for the US East Coast version (author working on it).

Thanks.
