Brilliant paints. Looking forward to their release. Nice addition.

Already released - link about two posts above. There is a little correction to make to the Union Jack jet - the starboard side of the fin has the 4FTS crest and not the RAF Valley crest as on the port side. Thanks for pointing that out Tranquil and via PM. It will be fixed!! I learned a lot painting this and have a few ammendments to the black Hawks as a result (slight movement of some markings and better no-step areas on the mainplane). I can upload a 1024x1024 png file when I'm done so the experienced ones can apply the corrections if they want to. I'll be updating all mine over time , and maybe just upload the full pack when I'm 100% happy.

Mark, I'd have loved to have painted the Tuc's and thanks for the compliment, but the truth is, I've only just started painting aircraft for real - it was F1 stuff for GP3 before!! I hope that photo is not a hint

Hint, hint, lol

[Dinga69]

Hey - this is a Hawk thread, not a bloody TinCan thread Will certainly consider painting this at some time, will put it on the list.........I have other projects to look at first, so if anyone else wants a go - do it!! Now back to Hawks - the corrected XX278 texture should be up on Avsim later!!

Have added XX230 as this aircraft also wore this scheme last year - little bit retro??

traffic file please!

Thank you!

[Dinga69]

You can use the one from the MAIW UK Hawks Pack 2 - just decompile with Traffic Tools and change the aircraft names to match the ones in the supplied config. I don't make traffic files, or include these as they are not my work. It does require a bit of work deleting unused flights and aircraft, then allocating serials in the traffic file. Hope that helps!!

Ok! Thanks!
