Guessing that was a Tiger Meet scheme from a while back??

Yeah, it was from 2003 I think.

Can't forget these guys.

Mark,
Did you touch the canopies at all? Seems to have more of the "gold tint" like some of these N's had back in the day.

Excellent as usual Mark!
The splinter camoed F-16 is one of my favourites!

Thank you for these, a clean and camo'd Viper is such a sexy jet.

What's next on your list?

djnocturnal · Post by **djnocturnal** » 05 Mar 2012, 13:15

Convince the author of WSAI JAS-39 Grippen to realise an F-16 Block 52, and you put it in the colors of Greece, Israel, Oman, etc.

Well if you had the NBAI Hornet or Harrier paintkits open, both squadrons at NAS China Lake (VX-9/VX-31) could use some aircraft. The CoNA Hornet turned out great.

MIKE JG · Post by **MIKE JG** » 05 Mar 2012, 15:41

China Lake is in final testing, plus Mark did those paints.

Mark, how about the USMC Harriers?? Most of them have now been updated to the dark gray over light gray scheme, plus the Boss' birds for each squadron have not all been done.

I think Aaron did some of these but there are still plenty to do.

If you can find serials for them, there are the T-38's for Langley and Tyndall as well.

i'll take a look at those harriers. Forgot about those!

djnocturnal · Post by **djnocturnal** » 05 Mar 2012, 18:03

Mike if you have any pictures of the boss birds let me know. Would it be safe to say they are all going over to this new paint scheme?

MIKE JG · Post by **MIKE JG** » 05 Mar 2012, 19:41

Yes, even the 2 seater models have been given the new paint scheme. I have pics of their tails at home, I'll try to post them here for you later. I think they're repainting them as they come in for depot maintenance.

djnocturnal · Post by **djnocturnal** » 05 Mar 2012, 21:13

I was hoping to make it a direct replacement for the maiw package but it seems as tho quite a few of the serials have changed amont units as usual.

Here is a start.
