To the four other folks who have downloaded Nellie, would you care to download her again, this time with all her bits and pieces. Link above changed to new one. Sorry about that. :?

Regarding Nellie. I'd like to apologise to any SAAF personnel or Harvard Club of South Africa members past and present for the random selection of SAAF squadrons badges. I founf it impossible to find ANY of the correct badges (Cue some bright spark to come up with a list AND pictures)
Right, that's got that off my chest. Now for something completely different:

Midnight Miss III

Oh, one more thing. The sponsor stickers were a moving target, it seems like every picture I saw had a different arrangement so I settled for a 'general' selection which I think gives a flavour.

That's very kind of you Space. I appreciate it.

You don't mind if I call you Space do you? First names are so much friendlier don't you think? :D

Maybe too late, Ron...but wiki has a list of current and disbanded SAAF squadrons with their associated badges. Here’s a link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_African_Air_Force

Specifically section 2 and then subsection 2.5. Seems like a complete list! :D

Thanks Jacques but I did get those but none of them specified T-6 operations. When it comes down to it they all are too small on the paint to make that much difference. Not only that, Nellie is in the past now. Onward and upward.
Thanks for caring thought. 👍

Since the advent of MFS I haven't used P3D once! I missed the Texan (as I may have mentioned elsewhere) but I didn't really appreciate how much until I jumped in and took these screens. An absolute work of genius! The T-6 that is.
A couple of things:
1: Reno racers tend to be smothered in sponsor sticks which come and go with the seasons. This paint is one of those moments in time.
2: There are a couple of places where the modelling uses one piece a couple of times. I chose the, to my eye, the least noticeable.
3: The badges/labels on the wheel covers are a mish mash. It wasn't possible for me to find the real ones. (Cue someone to come up with a close up photo!)
