This is a repaint I made a few weeks back for A2A's fabulous Piper Cherokee. OK, the PA-28 certainly ain't British, hailing from Vero Beach, Florida. I do reckon she's a classic though: this one's based on a 1960s 'C' model. However, it's the paint job which may just qualify it for an entry visa here!

G-SIXT is actually a PA-28-161 Warrior II operated by Booker Aviation out of Wycombe Air Park. In 2008 she was re-registered and repainted in a commemorative livery to mark the 60th Anniversary of Airways Flying Club. The paint scheme was intended to invoke the de Havilland Comet 4's operated during the 1960s by BOAC and BEA. The left side of the aircraft carries BOAC's colours and the BEA livery is shown on the right.



I've used a little bit of artistic licence to adapt the livery to the Cherkie C (and those semi-tapered wings on the Warrior are definitely a better match for the DH.106). Just to prove I'm not completely bonkers, here are some photos of the real thing.
If there are any Cherokee flyers lurking here who fancy it, here's the download link.
Best wishes,
