As much as I like the original livery on the B-25, Im wondering if there are any other paints available for this awesome bird? Specifically looking for something you would see from the Doolittle Raiders... like this

I know how you feel Rob. Like you said, it's a nice aircraft, and I do like the graphics, but the bare metal just doesn't look right to me for a B-25.

It's not in the readme file, but I could swear I read somewhere that they do not allow repaints.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

It's buried in the documents folder. Wink

I knew I had seen it somewhere. But you would think since he does not allow repaints, he would do some of his own. I did not see any on the site.

You would think so... It appears that there isn't much to do with FS at all there lately, judging by a few of his "news" updates. Wink

It would appear that the only other B-25j paints we have here are all for a Payware version, or CFS2 version.
Other than that, all we've got is the same Roy Chaffin plane for FSX, FS9, and CFS.

If you're a member of SOH, you could try this recent freeware B-25J:

fs9_b25_install.zip

It should work in FSX, and there is a much more lenient policy towards repaints,
so there may be a few available, or if nothing else,
you could at least make one without fear of prosecution. Wink

Actually on Roys site I did happen to find 2 additional paints for the FSX model. One is a US Air Force paint, and the other is a Dutch paint. It comes in a package, and also includes some updates to the aircraft. If the Dutch paint had US markings.... it would be perfect for what I was looking for. bah, oh well!
