Hi Dave,

thanks for your nice compliment, but do not forget: this wasn’t the last York repainted by me! :prayer:

One more Avro 685 York repainted by Virtual Birds Factory will soon arrive in another classic British livery at AVSIM.com: G-AMXM in colours of Hunting-Clan Air Transport at about 1958. This aircraft started with the Royal Air Force as MW323 and was involved in the Berlin Airlift in 1948/1949.

Thank you Manfred for your announcement of the Avro York ASCALON here in this forum.

Due to an oversight, the model.moyd file necessary for displaying the Ascalon textures is absent from the package uploaded to avsim. :doho: However, the model file has been included in all other Avro York repaints ...

Hi DaveB,

hope you are back from AVSIM :lol: So let me tell you there are two more Avro Yorks in the virtual air:

@ AllanL and DaveB,

The York to be painted in Hunting Clan livery entered the paintshop two days ago. Feel free to tell us your suggestions even you have no pics. We have a lot of information about that lovely old lady, however in some cases only b&w pictures. So we will do our best. :wink ...

@DaveB: What a nice compliment, thank you.

Is there a livery most wanted by the Forum Members?
Let me know your suggestions please!

Thank you all for your nice words. Some more very interesting liveries are still in the paintshop. So you should be on the lookout. :wink:

Today an Avro 685 York C1 in 1957 MEA Middle East Airlines colours started to AVSIM and flightsim.com, one of the nicest liveries ever seen on a York. :dance ...

I have uploaded Manfred's York repainted in a rare BOAC special night blue scheme as used for two Yorks shortly after WWII. Some sources indicate they were painted blue. According to other sources both Yorks may have been painted in black. We prefer the blue version.

Hope you also like this scheme ...
