Hi!

Does anybody here know of a Lufthansa repaint of the 377? It´s a little strange to fly this bird in europe in the liveries that came with it.

Have looked on Avsim but haven´t found anything there.

Hi Eraser, there's none that I know of. Lufthansa never operated the 377, they did use the Lockheed Constellation however. It would be neat to see the 377 in Lufthansa colors, but the Straotcruiser repaints are few and far between, and I'm having trouble finding a Pan Am 'white top' scheme thats in the higher quality SP2 texture set. Good Luck!

I know that Lufthansa never used the 377....but it would have been nice to have one regardless. There are some fictional ones out there so.

Are there any liveries for european airlines?

There's an Aer Lingus one out there, I think thats it. Air France had their own double-decker rather than the Stratocruiser, it was a full two deck though:

The Breuget 761:

Go to Flightsim and search in the library for: Sean Doran

http://www.flightsim.com/file.php?cm=SEARCH

He has several great historical and fictional paints there to choose from. Aer Lingus is the one I use all the time. I hope you find something you like.

I bump this up, maybe one of this talented painters wants to make a nice ancient Lufthansa repaint, please? :mrgreen:


Would be great!

Lower frame shiny metal, then the blue line, top white with old Lufthansa writing...

Most of the repaints on Flightsim.com are for the older version of the B377 and not the Cots version. They might work but I think the main fuse textures are 1024 rather than the new 2048. I am doing a series of paints for the new version and might do the Lufthansa if there is enough interest.

Warbird,
I think whichever repaints you choose to take on will be met with great enthusiasm! You are breathing new life into an area that has not seen much activity lately. I look forward to your next repaint, and thanks for your efforts!

Looking good already! Will there be a Lufthansa writing on it when it's done? What will you do with the Volkswagen? Passenger bus? That would be awesome! I wish there would be people actually boarding the plane. Maybe the guys at A2A will make an update for that? *hint* ;-)
