Thanks for your compliments

Sorry, that links to OLD versions. ( for Late28_v10 )

These screens show my latest versions wich have not been published yet. (for Late28_v10_2.0 )

Wheels with spokes on F-AMXV Brise de Mer, inspired by the wheels wich come with the default F-AJUY Aerospatiale -Light-Blue, but totally different.

Just a little explanation about the liveries' choice for this project :

For the XPFR package I have decided to not integrate all the liveries because of the size of the final package. Actually, the Latécoère package is 130 Mo (90% due to liveries).
There is one issue with multiple high definition liveries (4096x4096 pixels), it takes much more disk space than for X-Plane 8 or 9.
So, here is the difficult choice :
- Choose typical different liveries for a representative variety ?
- Integrate all liveries with less quality definition to keep the package size ?
- Keep definition and get an heaviest package ?
- Keep the other liveries on independent download ?
As we do during the all project process, we also have to find the best compromise for this kind of choice... but, in this case, the choice is not due to liveries quality !

Pour l'archive XPFR j'ai décidé de ne pas intégrer toutes les livrées en raison de la taille du paquet final. En fait, l'archive du Latécoère est de 130 Mo (90% dû aux livrées).
Il y a une question avec les livrées multiples haute définition (4096x4096), elles prennent beaucoup plus d'espace disque que pour X-Plane 8 ou 9.
Le choix devient difficile :
- Choisir un panel restreint de livrées typiques pour avoir une variété représentative ?
- Intégrer toutes les livrées quitte à avoir une archive très lourde ?
- Baisser leur qualité pour ne pas trop alourdir l'archive ?
- Laisser les livrées alternatives en téléchargement indépendant ?
Comme nous le faisons pendant tout le processus d'un projet, nous devons également trouver le meilleur compromis pour ce genre de choix… mais dans le cas présent, le choix n'a pas été lié à la qualité des livrées !

Ok,Beber, I fully understand.

You implemented my FARE livery, when my revision of the FARE livery is ready, it might be an idea to replace the FARE livery in the package.
It will be more up-to-date and does not make the package bigger.

In the new version I made use of the "posters" and I changed the mirror.

I`ll keep you posted.

P.s.

I`ll publish the other revisions at ORG.

You're welcome
I am also looking on your Simoun livery wich seems to give a second life to this aircraft.

If you like you can add my Simoun files to the Simoun too.
I`ll prepare a files-set for you (edited OBJ files, my normals and my livery)
Still have some work to do on the Simoun.

New Latcoere 28 Air France duo-livery published today.

Still working on the new FARE livery.

[Leen de Jager]

As my version of this Latecoere depicts a former Spanish Civil-War aircraft I tried to add some historic elements.

This Latecoere serial number 933(on the inside-type-plate) ) was donated by Air France to FARE afer being in use for Air France under the registration F-AJVB. (still vaguely visible under the thin FARE painting)

This airplane was used by FARE as a transporter and as a bomber as well, so I made two versions of it.
One version with a cabin-interior and a freigter/bomber version without.

have a peep:







Still a lot to do.( rear-door-right, remains of the F-AJVB registration, aluminium propellor and a bit of ageing.)
Thats fine with me, I like the job.

Really great ! Thanks Leen.
