Dear fellow virtual pilots,

 

quite a while ago I finally decided to begin with my first repaint for the PMDG 737NGX. Being from Ukraine, I always liked Ukraine International Airlines and flew several times with them when I was a little kid - one time even on the jumpseat.

Since I have access to specific information and details of UIA's fleet I decided to start realizing my idea of an accurate fleet representation, using PMDG's 737NGX as a basis. My first repaint will be UR-PSB - one of the first NG's that Ukraine International have acquired in September 2009.

 

 Regarding visual and technical accuracy (equipment and displays) my repaints will represent their real equivalent to 100%. (accurate aircraft configuration files).

 

To begin with, here is UR-PSB, which is almost finished and only needs some last finishing touches.

 

 

All of the airline-specific stickers and plackards are photographed from the real UR-PSB, the yoke-checklist is hand-made.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Once again, this repaint comes with a 100% accurate aircraft config file making it as close to its real equivalent as possible.

I'd also like to thank my buddy Christian / mcnobody , who assisted me with some minor details, for helping me out. 

 

I hope some of you guys will actually download and enjoy my repaints and take them for a spin. UIA's routemap covers most parts of Europe and they do have several scenic destinations with challenging approaches. 

Beautiful job! Love the attention to detail.

Great job Bogdan!

Thanks guys!

 

Expect in the avsim library in the next few hours.

 

 

 

Beautiful! How did you edit the stuff in the VC? And would you mind taking a paid reuqest?  :lol:

Superb! Thanks, mate.

Awaiting for ER package so we can expand our virtual Ukraine International fleet with -900ER.

Well, the only difference between the -900ER and a regular -900 is that the 900ER has an increased usable weight and an increased engine power, the fuel capacity is the same (20.9 tons) unless you order additional aux fuel tanks, which UIA didn't. The short field package and carbon brakes are also standard on the -900ER. Therefore a regular -800 with winglets has a longer range than the -900ER - at least in UIA's configuration.

I simply cut out the stickers from the photographs, adjusted their size and placed them over the main panel texture of the 737NGX, which can be found in Simobjects/Airplanes/PMDG 737-800NGX/vc.

 

 And please contact me via PM regarding your request.

Thanks guys!

 

Expect in the avsim library in the next few hours.

 

 

 

 

Vielen Dank!

 

It's up, go grab it!  :wink: http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?CatID=fsxacrp&DLID=183170

Thanks friend! your efforts are highly appreciated!

You're welcome!

 

Next on the line will be UR-PSI, a recently acquired -900ER straight from the Boeing factory.

After that I will complete the -PSA, -PSC, -PSD line and add -PSJ.

Did a few test flights with it, and oh my.. it looks amazing with REX ENB Natural!

Thank you very much! I'm glad you like it! Feel free to post some screenshots.  :wink:

I'll try. For now, the only screenshots of it are silly ones (Upside down and such, and doing very very very low passes shots) 

Great work Bogdan! Good to see that you got those cockpit textures done and the externals too.

 

Just a tiny littler flaw I spotted is the 'EMERGENCY' sticker below the captain's side cockpit window. This one doesn't exist on the real 737 NG, it's only on the first officer side. This error comes with PMDG's paintkit ... unfortunately. :mellow:

 

Keep it up!
