These texture sets were created using the excellent paint kit supplied by Warbirdsim's John Terrell. I must also give credit to Paul Randall's invaluable resource on the 8th AF fighter groups.

These repaints are freeware; they can be used and modified as you wish for your own use. They must not be used or sold for commercial gain. If you want to publish any repaints based upon them they must be published as freeware and must acknowledge the authors Dave Quincey, Warbirdsim and John Terrell.

These files are virus-free and have been tested with FSX SP2/Acceleration. I have no reason to suspect they will harm your system but they are used entirely at your own risk.

    Thanks for the pics. Lt. Shelby N. Jett was my father in law's uncle. We use the screen shot of Jett Job as our wallpaper! My father in law loves it.
