Till now , the cockpit and cabinwindows seen from outside always have been invisible.
Just holes to look though , without any "glass" to be seen.
In the latest version X-Plane 10.20 (build 102014)adding some realness to the glass failed again.
I did not want to wait any longer.
Just place the contents of the objects folder from this downlaod in the main objects folder of the King Air.
A backup for the default files is included.
I am confident you`ll never want to use these back-up files.

"Quetzalcoatl" livery for the LES DC3 /C47
This is a livery-paint made by Leen "Flybike" de Jager for the Leading Edge Simulations Douglas DC3.
Not just a normal average paint , no, this time a real thrill for those who want someting "obscure and spectacular"
This paint depicts (more or less) the N9012 in a livery for "Bird of the Sun" Air Travel Club.(1978)
Special for this livery is the fact both sides of the plane have different textures.
Both textures show the Maya-god "Quetzalcoatl" ( serpent-alike-symbol) , on the right with an animal-head ,on the left with a more human face , both known from the Maya-culture.
Thats why I named this paint Quetzalcoatl.
As usual this skin-package also includes customised cockpit/cabin texturing and normalmapping.
New for this paint-job is the addition of some "virtual-cabin-windows"(exterior effect only)
How to install:
Just unzip Quetzalcoatl.zip in a temp folder.
Start reading Quetzalcoatl Readme.PDF carefully FIRST.
I really hope you`ll enjoy this very special and rare livery as much as I did during the extremely time-consuming process of making it.
Cheers

Leen "Flybike" de Jager, LES DC3/C47-livery nr 8 * ,
This paint depicts (more or less) the DC3, N25672 in the Braniff livery.
The original model had wing-registration and Braniff-text on the wings, due to the limitations of the mapping of this model, this could not be reproduced.
As Braniff was the first (or at least one of the first) airliners making commercial flights with the Douglas DC3, this was a paint wich had to be done ( I was told ;-).

This is a repaint by Leen "Flybike" de Jager, made for the superb X-Scenery Mitsubishi MU-2.
It represents the N316PR wich crashed tragically on the 25th of June 2006.
I added normal-files (with specular-layers) which contain custom-made effects (specular regulated gloss).
These custom normals are part of the livery allthough they can be used for other liveries as well. Please read the enclosed N316PR_Readme PDF carefully. Use a text editor e.g. Wordpad for editing the OBJ files.
Questions, or need help, please mail me.

Livery by Leen “Flybike” de Jager, filename Stampe-F-GKEB.zip for the:
Stampe SV4C with Renault 4P engine
Version 2.0
Released by Lamahelo & Beber
for “XPFR.aeronautics” and available on the XPFR website.
Look for STAMPE-SV4C_v.09-270_(33).zip ( designed for XP9 flying like a charm in XP10)
Sometimes a model is so appealing I really wonder why do`nt we all fly this bird?
I installed the little bird in X-Plane10 and I am thrilled.
Really a small jewel , looking so pretty and flying so pleasantly.
As usual I could not resist making an extra attractive skin.
I implemented normal files in the model, added several details as usual, etc.
A big "Merci beaucoup" for my friends from XPFR.
This really is a "MUST HAVE"

This is a livery-paint for the Leading Edge Simulations Douglas DC3/C47.
by Leen "Flybike" de Jager
This paint depicts (more or less) the DC3/C47, Iberia EC-ADR .
The original model had wing-registration, due to the limitations of the texture-mapping of this model, this could not be reproduced. ( grrrrrrrrr..........!!)
Outside-looks based on sparse photo-material, cockpit inside, just one of the many variants (artists impression if you like) and not representing the original one. This might have been the cockpit when this aicraft had been restored by ................ instead of ending on a scrap-yard.
She is not anymore, the memory however is immortal.
Another tribute to the bird I fell in love with.

Paint made by Leen "Flybike" de Jager
This paint depicts (more or less) the DC3/C47, FZ658, Royal Newfoundland Air Force.
Mind the strange "roundel" on the fuselage, this was a political protest on an air-force plane, and caused some fuzz in 1948/9
The original model had wing-registration, due to the limitations of the texture-mapping of this model, this could not be reproduced. ( grrrrrrrrr..........!!)
The skin-set includes cockpit and cabin textures as well.
Pay attention to the difference between the day and night-cabin-textures.
How to install:
Just unzip FZ658_Newfoundland.zip into a temp. folder, and start reading the readme file
This livery comes without pilots.
If you prefer to have the little guys at the yokes, just remove the pilot.png file from the FZ658_Newfoundland/objects - folder

Photo-research and "mental coaching" by Harvey Stein
Thanks Harvey ,for encouraging me to lay my hands on this fabulous Douglas Sleeper Traveller !!!!
This paint depicts (more or less,within the limitations of the model) the DST , Douglas Sleeper Traveller , wich was in fact an enlarged version of the DC2 , made by Douglas on request by American Airlines. ( round 1935 )
After a production of about seven DST`s the plane was rebaptised and became the name Douglas Commercial nr 3 , the DC3 was born and a new era in aviation started.
So we can say, this is a kinda "Mama-Dakota"
The original model had wing-registration , due to the limitations of the texture-mapping of this model , this could not be reproduced. ( grrrrrrrrr..........!!)
The skin-set includes cockpit and cabin textures as well.
New features : Main wingfairing more visible ( texture and normals) , new right-side passengers-door AND sleper-windows.
How to install:
Just unzip DST-NC28325.zip into a temp. folder , and start reading the readme file.

Shabby-old-panel for the LES DC3 / C47
by Leen "Flybike" de Jager
Last weeks I got requests for making an old, a bit worn out, cockpit ( panel,yokes and consoles) for the Leading Edge Simulations DC3/C47.
Suitable for those who really want to fly the plane on one of its last trips or experiece some real risky smuggling-adventures in an airplane wich is.................................you know.
Or better said flying an old bird.................to its restoration.
This panel comes with dark-grey upholstery and floor.
If you want to use the old panel in a livery having another colored upholstery and floor just remove the file named InnerWall.png from this download ( leave InnerWall_NML.png were it is.)
How to implement?
Just unzip the contents of this zip file into the objects-folder of the livery you want to get the old panel..
Make a backup/copy from this livery first , you might not dare to fly my panel.....it does not look so trustworthy.
Have fun and enjoy

118527 Jiminy Cricket
This is a livery-paint for the Leading Edge Simulations Douglas DC3/C47.
Paint made by Leen "Flybike" de Jager
This paint depicts (more or less,within the limitations of the model and its painter) the C47-D ,118527 "Jiminy Cricket "
Historical Note:
"Jiminy Cricket" is depicted as it flew for the Sicily operation in improvised night camouflage.
It was one of the original 52 C-47s that deployed to Egypt with the 316thTCG in December 1942.
"Jiminy Cricket" was one of the first from the 316th Sq. ATC, to visit Project 19, delivering worn out parts and returning rebuilt
engines to the RAF.
It eventually took part in the invasion of Sicily, where, the pilot, Sgt. George Quisenberry received wounds from German FLAK.
The shell destroyed the nose of the Aircraft, knocking out all instruments except the stand by compass.
Jiminy carried the crew back with nothing but the moon and the sticking standby compass.
Jiminy Cricket was repaired and served through May 1, 1947, then was "salvaged"
The skin-set includes cockpit- and (freighter-) cabin textures as well.
Passenger-seats, luggage-racks ,airco etc.removed from the plane.( its a freighter now !!)
Livery dedicated panel and cockpit colors
How to install:
Just unzip118527JiminyCricket.zip into a temp. folder , and start reading the readme file.

Stinson L5 PH-SEN by Leen "Flybike" de Jager
This is a skinset for the default Stinson Sentinel in X-Plane.
MIND!!
This is not a livery to be build in the usual way.
I added normal files to the plane and added and changed some other things too.
Unzip Stinson L5 PH-SEN upload.zip to your desktop and make sure to read the enclosed ReadmeFIRST.PDF
If not installed exactly as described normal mapping will not work.
I hope you`ll enjoy the bird as much as I enjoyed making this special livery.
Adding normals and speculars , its just like magic.

Paint made by Leen "Flybike" de Jager.
* Paintwork for this livery includes added normalmapping and higher-res textures.
Livery dedicated panel and cockpit colors.
By adding normals and increasing the texture-resolution this default Cessna 172 is "as good as new".
This paint depicts (more or less,within the limitations of the model and its painter) OH-CAM
Installation:
Attention this is not just a livery , and cannot be implemented as such.

This is a normal_set for the excellent Cessna Corvalis TT-model (aka the Columbia 400).
Model made by JGX-Designs , available at X-Aviation.
Can be used in XP 9 and 10 !!
Some days ago I got the Corvalis as kinda birthday-present ( be assured ,it was strictly legal ) and I was very pleased having this bird in my X-Plane collection , I really love it.
Its very unlikely I`ll find my way in the extremely sophisticated instruments/panel of this plane.
Its not to blame the plane , nor its great manual.
Its just me , I am just a painter, I am not a pilot.
Being a painter , I was quiet disapponted to see this plane having about fourty excellent default-liveries.
Adding another nice one would be , bringing water to the oceans.
Nevertheless I could not withstand the temptation of adding something I was missing.
Some more gloss and adding normalmapping to the model enhanches its appearance in a great way.
Thats all I did.
How to install:
Just place the files from this upload in the Corvalis main Objects folder.
Please make a backup from the C400_2.obj file in the main Objects folder first.
Thanks to JGX-Desings for giving me permission to publish the edited OBJ file.
Please enjoy.

This is a high resolution (4096 = X-Plane 10 only) livery for the default Cessna 172.
(*!) ATTENTION !!
To benefit the effect of the normal-files its vital to download and install my SAR livery for this bird FIRST ( following the instructions carefully)
Then, just place this Skyhawk C-GCAG folder the liveries folder.

Buffalo C-GPNR ("Buffalo-Joe" McBryan`s favorit plane) for the LES DC3/C47
Probably the most famous flying C47 these days, we even can say she is a movie-star.
Making a repaint wich already exists is always tricky , people start to compare and gues which one is the best.
Be assured I do not like to see it as a competition.
Even more tricky is making a repaint based on a default livery wich comes with the aircraft ,
Normally I do not make paints on request , let alone ,one based on an existing defeault livery..
For this "movie-star" I am happy to make an exception.
Taking the default LES DC3 in its default Buffalo livery to start with was quiet logic.
In the end not much of this original livery has left the way it was , shapes were changed , text reshaped and logos reversed.
Neverteless there are some lines and shapes wich I did not enterely by myself.
My main goal was to reproduce a C-GPNR wich comes as close to reality as I am abble to make it.
Big problem is the fact the plane changed its looks so many times ( as all pretty girls do ) , its hard to tell exactly how and what.
Outside made close to reality.
Cockpit colors giving a C-GPNR experience.
Cabin ,giving a Buffalo-Air feeling.
I hope you`ll enjoy this flying legend.

KLM-Cityhopper livery for the Saab 340 by L.E.S ( a paint by Leen "Flybike" de Jager )

Layered Paintkit for McPhatstudios ATR72-500 by Leen de Jager
By Leen "Flybike" de Jager.( based on edited and composed blanks made from the original McPhattextures )
This paintkit includes a set of "neutral-normal-files".
Make sure to place these normal-files in the objects -folder of your livery.
These normal-files have an edited normal and /or specular layer.
Their individual file-weight is much lower than the original ones , approx 7Mb instead of 16Mb
Using these normals prevents the default normal-files from making the default texture
visible on your paint when sunlight is striking the texture .
These customised normals (V2) replace the set I made and published earlier.
This paintkit is free ( for non-commercial use ONLY).
When publishing a repaint based on this paintkit, credits :

This is a livery-paint for the Piper Tomahawk ( model for X-Plane made by AWALL86.) X-Plane 9 >>
Download the original model by AWALL86 here :http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php? app=downloads&showfile=11697
I deeply fell in love with this lovely bird ,
Painting it has its limitations , nevertheless this was really a challenge , doing some almost impossible paint-things.
This skin depicts the original within the limitations of this model as far as I was able to do.
This set includes normalfiles with speculars for plane , interior and pilot.
It also includes a customised walnut-panel ( for the 3D cockpit-panel only).
Doing research for this project , I met Charlotte Forrestier , the lovely Swiss lady-pilot.
How tow make a nice looking woman from an ugly male pilot ?
Never ever expected to do that kind of job
Well ..... please meet Charlotte !!!
If you do not already have this model, begin downloading and installing it.
Building-in this livery:
Unzip this upload to a temp. folder.
Copy the folder named Piper Tomahawk Breitling from this download into the LIVERIES-folder of
the airplane..
Copy the files named obj3.obj and obj3_NML.png into the main OBJECTS-folder.
Placing these two files here will have NO influence on the existing liveries.
They will only enhance the beauty of Charlotte Forrestier , our female pilot for the Breitling
Tomahawk.

C47-D-Flottille 56S nr 87, livery by Leen "Flybike" de Jager
This repaint is inspired by the French Navy livery for the C47 D It depicts ( more or less ) the nr 87 at the end of its career with the 52S Flottille.
Unless her age, she was a reliable workhorse.
These days she doesn't fly anymore but she still exists, standing at the entrance of the Nimes Naval base.
As I wanted to give an over-all impression of the bird I aimed my brushes on the outside and to the interior, including the panel and cockpit as well.
Did some additional bumpmapping (editing the normals accordingly the changes to the exterior).
At the last moment a found a French crew, willing to fly this bird to you.
Merci beaucoup mes amis
I hope you`ll all enjoy this skin as much as I enjoyed making it.
