Looking gorgeous there, Bernd!

Is that skin via the "replace the textures" technique? I assume it's not just a drop in repaint? And if its the replacement thing, is the skin itself an old FSX/P3D version? Either way, she's looking really good there against some great scenery.

Thanks Andy, yes its via the "replace the textures" technique. I bought next to the plane also the livery pack 1. That gave me four different skins to play with. Then I found out that the textures used for the old CS C-130E without VC are the same as the ones CS uses now for the C-130H. And for the old plane quite a few free liveries are available on the .to site. Download the ones you like and drop only the textures and new thumbnail into one of the four livery folders you have. Important: don't change anything else or it won't work. And don't advertise this with Captain Scam. Otherwise they sure will find a way to stop this technique.

Your set really shows off the Hercules well. Great paint, great skies and scenery, and wonderful wide-view cockpit shots!

Perfect! I had been thinking about doing exactly that! The livery pack is nothing special but I figured it would be a good basis for this sort of thing. Next stop - the CS site to grab myself the pack!

Lovely images, bernd, from around Vancouver Island...toured by the RCAF C-130 Hercules...

The scenery and the livery both look outstanding...!

Amazing shots Bernd! 😉

Thank you my friends for your kind comments. Although I also like the Transall, I'm really happy now to have the long missed C-1230 too 🙂🙂
