I thought long and hard about painting the 125 as a Dominie T1, as there are vast differences in detail between them. A number of people wanted one painted so I knocked one up as a stop-gap until such time as a 'real' Dominie appears (assuming it ever will!). I had half a mind to paint the earlier red/white scheme and also the black/white one however I will probably be tied up with the 5-window versions with and without the rear underfin.

cheers, Peter W :)

Indeed mate.. I see and understand your predicament. When you're known for doing accurate 'RW' paints (for the correct models) doing something like this is always going to 'tug' a little. However.. if the end users are happy etc etc :) I've bagged a copy anyway and thanks for doing it ;)

It's close enough for me Peter. I'm not a "rivet counter". :)
Thank you very much.

I have a problem with the gauges as it seems that the FA-18.dll is not recognised on my system. I cannot even get the FA-18 model to show its gauges.

Hi Keith.
There could be a problem with simconnect.dll

There are some good suggestions here if you ... haven't you already fixed the problem?

Thank you for The 125 Rob and company

It's fabulous , I particularly love to watch the head shake while heavy braking. It's very good .. more like the AC shaking instead of head movement.

I ... I'm proud to say I flew it to a few airports ( I love TO and Landing) .. and noticing the added effect .. I ran it up and down the runway just to watch it work...

:lol: :lol:

Thank You , Thank You Thank You

Peter,
from my point of view, there's absolutely no need to justify your action - the end result is brilliant, even if it's not exactly authentic. Like the others, I'm not particularly interested in counting rivets, and will happily explore fantasy "what if" alternatives whether that be complete models or repaints / colour schemes.

I'm also hoping that the DH.125 will follow the example of Rob's Meteors and have an expanded production line, having noted that a Series 1b is imminent.

Anyway, thanks for this repaint and the others you've generously given us, and looking forward to your future output,
regards,
Ro

Joe,
Thanks for the link, & yes I have seen it, but not actioned it as my IT expert (my son) is visiting at end of month with his old gaming 'puter which he is passing onto me.
When that is up & running & things transferred from this 'puter, I will report back.
Regards
Keith

I can only agree with the comments below Peter, and thank you for this livery, and indeed all your previous efforts on our behalf.

You must be the most prolific "painter" going

Again, many thanks for all your work.
