| Had a look at your Tu-360 (presumably the Avsim download) and was surprised to discover that it had mirrored textures on many parts of the a/c (similar to the FS9 default a/c). The bmp files therein make defining the actual part of the a/c that is being repainted very difficult to establish, which would entail a lot of detective work in the first instance. Because of this, the work entailed would be 20 times that of an ordinary repaint. All this points to a poor mdl file which has cut corners in the making and suggests that the a/c would be unsuitable for a lot of things, including flying. Sorry, but that's how I find it - yes, the answer is no. |

| hey that's alright its not a big deal. I hate to be a pest but I was also wondering if anyone could paint the Boeing 2707-200 in American Airlines colors? I know I'm asking a lot but I love this airplane. Thanks in advance. |

Hi,
Need to know which 2707 you have in mind - ie zip file name and source.
Should warn you that I have a couple of repaint jobs on the go, so wouldn't be done tomorrow as it were.
Cheers |

| Further to my last - been looking around the download sites and note that there are several 707's with old and new style AA liveries available. Suggest you have look at these as you can have them immediately and probably better than mine. |

| The version of the 2707 is the 2707-200. And that's o.k. I've heard you are a highly regarded painter so I'd like to see what you come up with. Thanks |

Have downloaded the 2707 and it would be feasible to paint it - do you want the old AA or new AA livery?
Remember, I did say that I have a couple of repaints on the stocks and it won't happen tomorrow as it were.  |

New livery if you can. I'm just excited someone's painting it for me. Doesn't matter how long it takes. Thanks Davec  |
