10 hours ago, eurowing said:VW is named Wolfsburg? who knew! ;)
and it should be "Ruhr", not "Rühr" . unless you like scrambled eggs hahaha (don't know what's on the repaint, though. just going by this post here)
I realized the "Ruhr" mistake after I posted it. Kind of an homage to Kennedy declaring that he was a jelly donut in Berlin.. :)
-Tschüss!

Fantastic repaint of Lufthansa's 747-430M, D-ABTB "Brandenburg" by the one and only Steve Drabek. I'm a little partial to this particular aircraft. Enjoy!

Steve, you've done it again. A great repaint, sure, but forcing me to spill my secrets.. I'm still convinced that if I ever go to Berlin, I could get into "my" gate for free. I think it's only reasonable to expect the same from LH. I'd even sign my name on the plane..
I've got the PMDG 744, so I'd be happy to give her a spot check. Thanks for working one one that I'm partial to. Now when PMDG releases the 747-8i..you know what to do..

Great job on the paints. Or should I say "ausgezeichnet"!

Fantastic, outstanding work! Fingers crossed that one of "my" 747s will be represented..

Yes, I'm selfish. :wink:

PS - interesting bit of trivia.. the ">" in "Canadi>n" had a twofold purpose. First, it was the logo for Canadian Pacific. Second, the airline didn't want to go through the trouble of offending French Canadians by using the English spelling: (Canadian vs. Canadien). So they subbed the logo in..
