As part of my rebuild after my major PC crash last year I put a 550W PSU in the system, absolutely tranformed it. It also means I have all the power connections etc for making a future switch to PCI-E.

Isnt the P-3 orion the same plane as the Electra? If so, why hasnt someone taken FS-KBTs orion and painted it as a commercial plane. It shouldnt be too hard for an experienced painter, and would be nice because its a great plane. The P-3 and the Electra are related, but are not the same plane. Rumo...

Looking nice Steve. BTW, I have managed to crank the shine up a little more, and I#ve got another couple of things to try - I'll get the revisions over to you tonight/tomorrow morning. It's gone from 'eggshell' to 'vinyl silk', so that's some progress I guess :lol:

I can't even begin to tell you how I am NOT getting on :lol: To be fair, the 'real world' is taking up a lot of time, as I am putting together a website for the company I work for; only really dabbled in website design to date, so a comprehensive travel website is an interesting learning curve!

There is no T4 available at all, the Alphasim is model of the actual prototype.

They have already been done; Andy Nott has a repaint of WK163 over on Avsim, for Bill Holker's Canberra, and the Alphasim comes with the prototype scheme for VN799, which is the scheme the AA T4 is in.

All the best Steve, this is where the fun starts!

Kevin, I was going for 'subtle', I'll see if I can improve on that. :wink:

Thanks for the gloss-black notes, Kevin, I will indeed try to make the finish a little glossier. To be honest I'm not really sure why the textures appear so matte or dull on this model; with the B.2 they were much more glossy. Very odd, but a challenge nonetheless. Maybe Andy G can shed some light ...
