HS uses a CFM56 (CFM56-5B) while AC uses the IAE V2500 (V2500-A1/A5).

Re: Current Projects
My head hurts. I think I need to lie down.
So, I decided to compare the fuselage to a background image in gepolyo and found that the cabin was sit back and the nose too long. It took a lot of work, but I got that fixed. I noticed it when I was going to cut out the exhaust pipes in the side, which I just finished.

Re: Current Projects
First, nice upgrade (A380Plus). Second, I'm a newbie on modding.ProPilot275 wrote: ↑Mon Jun 19, 2017 1:26 pm Can somebody tell me what is the problem here and how can I solve it?
You can solve this by going to Blender and deleting this issue.

Lucas OR - June 19, 2017
I've spent a lot of fun on my today's modding.
For the first time i've used reference images found on internet to cut the fuselage and tail - Not 100 % accurate, but it's better than my previous ones (I never did that before).
This is the NC (New Colors) of Avianca, i've made a research for the OC (Old Colors) too, but i've decided to do the actual first. When i was almost finishing i noticied the diferent winglets of A320 - So this one is missing the Sharklets. I will later speak with Utachy to see if he allow me to do a simple modification - or i can left the actual until he made them.
As the image show, i've not applied the country flag, website and registration - because he can be used to do the different trademarks of Avianca Holdings (Avianca Colombia, Avianca Brasil, etc) A heavy competitor like Latam Airlines.
I will do the same thing on the OC, but i don't need to worry about the winglets
More pics TBA as well on Twitter, as my modding steps continue.

Re: Current Projects
Is that the port-side winglet? Why is it there? Open it up and see if it is the child to something it shouldn't be.ProPilot275 wrote: ↑Mon Jun 19, 2017 1:26 pmCan somebody tell me what is the problem here and how can I solve it?
You did a good job on that tail paint. It looks good.
===========
And here is my current project. I've got two paints done on my Bonanza.
* One is supposedly a real-world paint, but when I looked up the registration number it had a very different paint job. From what I can make out, I think Beechcraft made a rendering of what their new Sport Package will look like and used one of their real registration numbers. I don't know if they have actually produced a G36 with the Sport Package yet or not.
* The second is based on the Bonanza KSH painted for Gunny with the fictional N1952J registration number.

This plane is my most recent paint. While researching it I found that the pilot crashed after engine trouble in Florida. It brushed the roof on a house and landed in the back yard. The pilot was transported to a hospital with minor injuries. I couldn't find any more about it. I'm pretty sure I remember this one being on the news when it happened.

Also, many Bonanza crashed already - https://aviation-safety.net/wikibase/db ... er=datekey

Re: Current Projects
Glad you fixed it Richard Vo.
I've started the fleet 4 of YSBRA Group, the B737-200 will return with a new fuselage and minor improvements.
Yesterday i've enjoyed my trial of Google Sketchup to export some materials from the Skecthup Library. With lucky i find a great model of the 737-200 and i've used only the fuselage, very clean except the windows and doors that i removed later.
The doors and windows i did from zero using an decal image. Also i edited a little the engines.
As you can see the cockpit is very simple, i've not find any good decal for the cockpit/instruments (Most of them was panels for FSX/FS9 lol). Making instruments is not my paradise - but my greatest one was made for DC-9.
And the comparison with the original model made by Top Gun Creations - which used a Boeing 737-300 made by Takaty as base model.
I still need to fix the collision model (still from 733).

Re: Current Projects
Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and The Big Bopper, all died in a Bonanza crash, which inspired the song "American Pie." Jim Reeves and Randy Rhoads are two other musicians who died in Bonanza crashes. Even the co-founder of Apple crashed a Bonanza, but he survived it.
This is a sort of tribute to a record-sitting Bonanza 35 v-tail, N80040 "Waikiki Beech" that was flown non-stop from Hawaii to New Jersey in the 1940s. I used the fictional N840WB and added the "Waikiki Beech" name. Like N936B, this plane includes 2, 20-gallon Tip Tanks, which will significantly improve its range, but not nearly as much as the additional fuel capacity of the real "Waikiki Beech", which had a range over 5000 miles.

Re: Current Projects
Takes a couple of days of work and your $ 1st born male child to install these Aux. tanks and rewire for lights and Aux. fuel instrumentation.Not to mention the plumbing involved.

Re: Current Projects
Not to mention that several of them talked about the pumps for the tip tanks failing.
I am probably going to do a couple more paints. I already did a new one today, based on one based in Tennessee.
