Hybrid/Early 1-11's

Firstly, Greetings everyone, first post in this brilliant forum with some screenshots of recent repaint work on David's BAC1-11.
Having looked through the available coverage for this brilliant aircraft, I recently came across a handful of oddball hybrid liveries for the Ryanair old frames that I have taken the liberty of reproducing and making available through Avsim. These are posted below and are taken in FS9. I admit, they are pretty bland, but they did at one time operate as such.

Im not really a stranger to repainting FS9 (and previous versions) aircraft 99% for my own use but occasionally release the odd one or two.

Just thought I would share with all and especially the chaps that are responsible for giving this old fella thousands of hours virtual flying in the classic jets for almost a decade.

If there are "any" 1-11's that havent been already covered (most unlikely I know) I should be very grateful for any information with regards to these if that is possible.
I will keep looking for the odd one or two that may turn up through old photos on the net ;)

Best Regards
David James

Nice job DJ :thumbsup:

Welcome to the forums :hello:

I think there are a few gaps in th later African liveries and not all the military use in the UK has been covered I think.

I'm sure those here who want them will jump at the chance of getting them :)

Hi David :)

I can only echo what's been said before. It's always good to see new paints and these.. as bland as they may be.. are just the ticket :thumbsup:

Vast majority of the corporate 1-11s are missing. There were a hell of a lot of Saudi registered ones that were seen all over Europe.

Good work. Already downloaded from Avsim :thumbsup:

Once you get into corporates, there are a lot that can be done.

I did a few buy that side was not something that interested me so much, so I didn't pursue it deeply.

I did a half dozen maybe, but I don't think many others have been done by anyone else *-)

The very later one though with the next generation hush-kits don't have a model for them.

Hi David,

great repaints - great shots, many thanks!! :thumbsup:

Well, the last 1-11s operating in passenger service haven't been repainted yet. I admit their liveries are not very colourful.
But if you would want to pay some attention to these - you would cover the very last period of that great aircraft in passenger service... :)

The SCAT aircraft was actually operated by Kazakh carrier Trast Aero.
They operated two 500 series aircraft, one was painted all white, the other one was blue. Sadly I don't find any pictures and at the moment I don't have too much time for research.

But here's an interesting story of an enthusiast flying SCAT in 2007...

Air Malawi would go nice with DM's VC10. Philippine Airlines was quite a big user, and for the UK, Ford!
