I'm using the VUSNs NAS Oceana Scenery and I came across this guy parked on the ramp... Never seen a Mentor painted like that anywhere else in FS or real life. Is there a real life counterpart?

Looks to me like it's a just fictional repaint based on the Blue Angels scheme.

Yep. according to the flight plan for that one it is supposed to visit:
KMMT - Mc Entire Joint National Guard Base
KVAD - Moody Air Force Base
KCHS - Charleston Air Force Base/International Airport
KNTU - Oceana Naval Air Station (Apollo Soucek Field)
KDOV - Dover Air Force Base

I just never ran into it before and was kind of taken by surprise.

According to Scramble.nl it belongs to the "Strike Fighter Weapons And Tactics School" on NAS Oceana, a unit that operates T-34s... but i haven't seen that scheme before

Here's an older shot from the year 2000. Not this same aircraft but a similar scheme. Can't find that serial number on ANet.

Looks like that model's texture should have a yellow prop spinner based on the real world thing eh?

...and are you trying to get on Graham's bad side

I'll let it slide..................this time.

Actually I'm pretty excited about the work he's doing on the lights. It really does make a huge difference for the models. I can't believe we've ignored it for so long.
