Hi All,
could some please help me with the HS-780 Andover RNZAF textures, I can't find them anywhere.
If you can put them on here, AVSIM or Flightsim.com or email them to me, please.
Thanks

Hi Tim
I don't apprear to have any RNZAF textures for Rick's 780 on this pc. I've looked on Flightsim.com and can't see any for this model there either. I feel sure there must have been one but had there been, I think I'd have had it installed
There may be something down at the NZ Flightsim Forums. I've just seen DaveG down there (probably looking too) and he may have some success being a member. I'm not so I don't think I'm seeing everything
EDIT: I've checked Avsim and OzX too and nothing on either

I guess SoH is the next port of call...

Maybe the titles prevent it??...they are longer
You may recall the Andover had a quick map patch so a section of the base 748 textures are stretched along the fuse....I think

Hello Mate
Yes, I remember it being a pig to paint!
Well.. I've searched SoH too using every combination of search I can think of (I find searching for stuff at the Outhouse akin to having teeth pulled without anaesthetic!!) and came up empty. I feel sure I've seen an RNZAF paint for either the 748 or 780 but I don't have one here and I can't find one anywhere else
Sri Tim but I'm out of ideas now.

I've discovered that there used to be an RNZAF texture file at what is now BritSim. It seems that I downloaded it in February, 2007 and it's 12.2 Mb in size, which means that there may be problems emailing it due to ISP limits. Would it be possible to upload it here ?

Had a google around, but no luck. There were a couple of threads here when they were released saying they were uploaded to Flightsim & Britsim. No sign of them of Flightsim & Britsim is down, but it sounds like Garry has managed to get it off Britsim somehow

I can't get in there anymore. I used to see the main page in Ruskie but now.. the page loads and I don't see anything. Garry must have a key for the back door

I can access Britsim but not post
Funny last time it was down, I alone seemed to still have it
Anyhow
