Twenty is just about right. Who did the repaint? Whoever it was deserves a mention. Very nice. 👍

Ah, found it. Repainted by Nobu Aki.

@Ron Attwood,

Thank you for your kind words.  Your name is very very very familiar to me but I cannot figure out where I have seen you many times on aviation forums in the past. I am still rackling my brain trying to recall!!! Is that you who frequently roam the SOH forums?? Looking at your mediafire directory containing all your repaints, I wonder if is that you who were kind enough to paint Revee livery on C-47 at my request?

As for the Virgin Island repaint, I do not remember who painted it but I think I found it on SOH or Avsim or flightsim.

Regards,

Aharon
