Serge...

Great repaint.  And your screenshots are really cool.  I like LSO Pit shot as the Hornet is crossing over the ramp... really good looking shot.

Keep it up, friend!

Ok, guys
Here's another Centennial repaint, F/A-18C (No 10) "Hornet" of VFC-12 "Fighting Omars" painted in VF-12 colors (Gloss Sea Blue), USS Randolph, march 1945.







You can download this repaint from Avsim.com (search for 'VFC-12' or use direct link http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?DLID=156732&CatID=fsxacrp)
Great source pictures are here http://www.amv83.fr/Asm/galleryusanavycentennial.htm

Happy landings!  ;D

Oh, here's another, and the last of my Glossy Blue Centennial series, repaint. This time it's a Hornet of VFA-204 'River Rattlers' painted as Navy Reserve Aircraft, early 1950's.








The repaint is available at Avsim.com (search for VFA-204 'River Rattlers')
Have fun!  ;D

Serge...

Really nice.  I like the detail... when did that real-life bird come out?  And I see you have some nice textures on the rails!!  Thats such an eyesore on the Accel Hornet.

Yes, you're right. The Accel Hornet's textures are ugly and incorrect, that's why I had to modify them first. Many thanks to Andy Nott for his paintkit, which my textures are based upon.
