Texturing doesn't have priority, it will be one of the last things I do. I'll decide then which livree to take. But I'm not excited about an ADAC helicopter in KSFO or VHHH. I'll rather go for a generic rescue helicopter without obvious nationality (and *if*, then Austrian, and not German ;-). Anyway, I will provide a layered texture like Jim did for the p51d, so it should be easy to make a German version. It would certainly be nice to have an alternate ADAC version in the hangar. (And the ADAC may even use it and distribute FlightGear with it without having to pay me a Cent!) I don't care at all for trademarks on our aircrafts. If a trademark holder has a problem with free advertisement, he'll tell and we'll remove and make sure that his company will *never* again be considered for the free sim. (We can even distribute the request for removal in written form. ;-) It's obvious even for the dumbest judge that there's no harm in using a logo, and that the profit is on the trademark holder's side, not on ours (as we aren't even making money). Furthermore, there is no sign of a damage (as long as we don't mount missiles on the ac and let people shoot them at school busses). That MSFS comes without real-life logos/emblems is probably because the trademark holders didn't want to pay MICROS~1's fees. Don't assume that MS does advertisement (or anything) for free! > as I am flying > with their helos (NOT as a pilot) since nearly two decades I'm active member of the Autrian Red Cross and volunteer as a paramedic/ ambulance driver in Vienna ... and as such I have to complain that the Red Cross emblem is clearly too small on ADAC helicopters. :-P > We are flying a BK117 but had a BO105 in exchange for some days the last > year at our base.

I've found a lot of photos on the internet and 170 are already on my HD But I could still use some more information. For example: where is the bottom strobe located? I guessed a place, but didn't see it in any picture. Is there a strobe on the belly at all? Furthermore, pictures of the interior would be useful. And general feedback, about things like beacon/strobe blinking/flashing frequencies etc, and whatever you find noteworthy. Thanks for your offer! m. _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
