Hello all,
I am very new here and I hope this is the correct section for this post.

I recently attended an Airshow in Youngstown, OH that featured the Thunderbirds, but the planes that really caught my attention were the Strike Eagles. I was wondering if somebody could do a repaint of the Strike Eagles demonstration team. They are based out of Seymore Johnson AFB in North Carolina. They have amazing paint jobs. They are like a smoke black. Here is the link to all the info on wiki. Thanks http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4th_Fighter_Wing

I don't see any pictures of a F-15 of your description.
Can you give me a link to a photo of the repaint you want?
And what F-15 do you want me to use?

If you can provide me with this info, I'll be glad to do it! Grin

I was under the impression they used a standard grey jet?

Sorry, i've been out of town for a few days,
I think this link has some better photos and also has pictures of their patches and other misc. things. I guess
you are right, they do use the standard grey, but, there are
a few photos where the jet looks almost black.

This link is to their demo teams acutal website.

And I would say this is the best freeware F-15 i've seen thus
far. I know it does not truly represent the F-15E as it does not have a dual cockpit, but, the a/b's work and the sound is pretty good, as is the model.
Hope this helps, and thanks in advance for your help, time and hard work.

You know, it would be nice to get a decent F-15 for FS2004 that has a panel that actually looks like an F-15 and sounds that sound like an F-15 rather than a lear-45.

6 years in the USAF and half of that working on F-15s and the other half on A-10's I have been sorely disappointed with the various aircraft models out there for these two.
