Chuck Lischer's SF260 Marchetti

Featured Replies

This is/was Chuck Lischer's Marchetti SF260;

Chuck Lischer was killed June 27 2006 when a small military jet he was piloting during a radar test crashed into a wooded area near Ocean City Municipal Airport in Maryland. He was 61. I expect he's now giving aerobatic lessons to the angels. :angel:
 

Chuck was a very well known aerobatic display pilot in his F260 which, over the years had many paint jobs, all of them dark blue. My repaint represents, as far as I can manage, the way it looked just prior to his crash. There are a couple of anomalies  which are down to the modelling of RealAir's marvellous add-on.

The rivet counters among you will quickly suss them out! :smile:

Finally, I'd like to say, if any aircraft in FSX is worthy of a 'bringing up to date' it's this one. How about it RealAir? I, for one would buy it as a new product as opposed to an update as I know there's a lot of work to be done.

 

Anyway, it's on AVSIM in left and right seat versions.

Once again a nice job Ron and a wonderful tribute to Chuck!  These are stylish little Italian stallions and I would be first in line to purchase a RealAir update.
