  1. Thanks very much for letting me know and for considering the GNS link. Regards Upkeep
  2. Just got this App and am very pleased with it. I was wondering with the onset of the GNS530 in the next update, are there any plans to import and export fms plans into the App? I am not sure this is even possible of course. Anyway, thank you very much for an excellent add-on to the Saab All the best Upkeep
  3. Thank you very much, Cameron, for such a quick reply. I will follow your advice. Thanks again. Best wishes Upkeep.
  4. I understand that the Gizmo vs SASL conflicts have now been resolved in 10.20 Beta 3 which is very good news. Currently I have two versions of XPlane 10.20 Beta 3 on my computer, one with the DC-3 (Gizmo aircraft) and one with other SASL aircraft. So two separate installations on the same computer, and on the same hard drive. I would now like to try the DC-3 in my SASL installation to check that all is OK. So I have copied over the DC-3 from the Gizmo installation to the SASL installation, but I am reluctant to open it in the SASL installation yet for testing in case I hit some DRM problems with the activation. In a nutshall, am I able to run the DC-3 in two X Plane installations on the same computer/hard drive? I do not want to delete the aircraft in the Gizmo installation until I am sure the DRM side is OK. As you can imagine it is very tedious having two separate installations and I now just want to have one but want to test firtst. Would be grateful for some advice. Thanks a lot Regards Upkeep.
  5. File Name: LES DC-3: Spanish Civil War - Republican and Nationalist File Submitter: Upkeep File Submitted: 12 Aug 2012 File Category: Vintage X-Plane Version(s): X-Plane 9 & 10 Livery For: Click Here For Aircraft The pre-cursor to the DC-3 was the DC-2 which at least externally was a similar looking aircraft to the DC-3. Therefore I am using a certain amount of poetic licence here depicting the two interesting liveries of this earlier aircraft on the LES DC-3. Therefore these liveries on a DC-3 - rather than a DC-2 - should be considered fictional. The liveries here of the same aircraft: one before and after capture in action. In the Spanish Civil War the Republican Air Force used four DC-2s as transports. This particular DC-2 was captured by the Nationalists on 17th June 1936 in Sevilla, in southern Spain. It was immediately re-painted in typical Nationalist colours and was named Capitan Vara de Rey, after the famous 19th Century officer in the Spanish-American War. Sadly I was unable to find any specific references to the markings originally used by the Republican Forces on their DC-2s, but have constructed this livery based on what appears to be fairly typical Republican livery. There are plenty of good references showing other aircraft. This DC-2, before being re-painted by the Nationalists, is named after the Republican Supreme Commander of Fighters in the Spanish Civil War: Andres Garcia La Calle. The livery shows the widely used fin markings of the Republican Air Force, plus the highly visible red stripes, presumably intended to limit the risks of friendly fire, ground and air. The original of the wonderful LES DC-3 can of course be found at: http://www.x-aviatio...uglas-p-84.html To install these two liveries, merely unzip the files and put in the original LES DC-3 livery folder. However, these liveries work all the better when combined with the military cockpit file provided by that master livery maker Leen de Jager which can be found on: http://forums.x-plan...&showfile=16470 As before, the liveries are not remotely near the Leen de Jager standard, but they cover an important event in history and I wanted to depict them as best I could.
