Hi Good People, Some interesting stuff happening within the Ford Project Team. Edward and I have been busy and have been creating some very good liveries for the Default Microsoft Curtiss Jenny JN4D aircraft. This old girl has not been a friendly model for repainters and there is a void of historical,Fact, Fun and Fictional liveries for her. Edwards, after a lot of research has come up with a bucket of historical aircraft data that we could paint up for the Jenny that would work with the "mirror mapping" and other qwerks in the overall model texture mappings. Just a couple of liveries we have create are: Daredevil Lindbergh - a close representation of one of Lindbergh's early aircraft Another is a Jenny hanging from the roof in a museum - The Fish. I am normally fairly creative but this livery is a real beauty. There are over 20 other liveries already painted and you can check them out at the Ford Project - Coming Soon Page - click on any page top banner and you will be taken to the Coming Soon Page or the direct link is: http://www.ford-tri-motor.net/coming-soon.htm We are trying to cover a good global use of this girl and give her a burst of life for simmers that enjoy LOW and SLOW flying in the simulators. There is still several more to be repainted up for this girl - some listed on the Coming Soon Page. IMPORTANT - These liveries are for the FS2004 Default Curtiss Jenny JN4D aircraft - HOWEVER, I believe that the aircraft ports very easily to FSX and these liveries will work very well in FSX as well (even a little bit richer) So if your interested in LOW and SLOW flying in your sim (FS2004 or FSX) then there are some pretty good new liveries soon to become available, hopefully early August 2014 That's all for now - hope you enjoy our FREE stuff designed for your simulator entertainment. Regards Garry and Edward.

Hi Good People, For those that are interested Edward and I have Packaged up Jens B. Kristensen's deHavilland 91 Albatross (with his consent of course) and a small bucket of era specific liveries. As many may know only around 6 Albatross's were every manufactured before deHavilland was required to focus on the Mosquito production for WWII. The Albatross was an outstanding piece of design work for 1938, almost revolutionary in what it delivered as a passenger aircraft in comparision to other developers. But unfortunately the potential was never fully explored. We, the Ford Project Team, thought we would do some "what if" liveries for this classic aircraft and give her a bit of artificial history as a World Class Passenger aircraft. You will find her at http://www.ford-tri.motor.net - via the Other Aircraft Page or direct link http://www.ford-tri-motor.net/Misc-Aircraft.htm I hope it brings some happy flying times to your sim. Regards and happy simming -
Hi Good People, Edward and I are considering adding a new "Support" aircraft for use in the Ford Tri-Motor Project. The FS2004 De Havilland DH.91 Albatross by Jens B. Kristensen. This aircraft fits within our era specific range and would be a great addition to the overall impact of the Ford Tri-Motor Project. Below are some screenshots of some tinkering with liveries for this girl. I know she is a fully wooden aircraft - but I, of course, did some tinkering with some full metal skin versions - just to see how they would come out. However, before we get stuck into integrating this girl into the project there are two things that need to be addressed: (1) I have been trying to get in touch with Jens to seek his consent for us to use his aircraft for the Project but have had no response so far. Without his consent then we cannot proceed with the aircraft and a package of liveries for her. If anyone knows a more current e-mail for Jens then please let me know so that I may contact him. (2) If consent is forthcoming then we need to know if there is interest out there for us to put in the time and effort to create a batch of era specific liveries for this girl. Therefore we request that you let us know your opinion via this forum or via e-mails to either Edward or I - your are also welcome to suggest a livery for inclusion in the suite. Edward's e-mail [email protected] Garry's e-mail [email protected] Thanks for your time and I look forward to your responses. Happy simming to all. Garry
