As promised, here's the finished repaint of my dad's Comanche, N6661P, bought new by him in 1960. He flew the plane all over the American West and Midwest, to Mexico, Canada, the Caribbean and South American. His partner took over the plane after my father had to give up flying. He handed the plane down to his son, who flew it for many years until he encountered structural icing and had to crash-land the plane in a field. The pilot survived, but the plane had to be scrapped.

Repaint perfectionists will catch a couple of mistakes. Let's hope practice makes perfect. Enjoy!

This Comanche has been at the Florida oranges I'd say.





There are a few more pictures on the web and most of them show it in the darker yellow. As you can see it has/had a yellow spinner and a chrome one. I leave it to you which one you prefer.





With and without speedy bits and TTs



On MediaFire now AVSIM soonish.

FANTASTIC job Ron!

So you didn't like my idea with e DHL stickers?

Great paint! Awesome work as always! Thank you for sharing!

Another nice repaint, Ron. I'm all a-buzz

Just click on my signature. Then follow your nose. You DO have a nose?

I'd better used my eyes! Sorry for not seeing it

With Tip Tanks

Could not see any indication that this bird had tip tanks, so I carried the theme to the tanks.



Without Tip Tanks

As seen in all the photos that I could find on this bird.

NOTE: Files have been updated as of 8/25/2015 to include additional trim lines on wing surfaces.

Very nice!

Stunning

I knew if I said I'd do it you'd get your finger out! Lovely job! Well done.

Great paint. Proud to have it in my hanger.

A very modern paint job there, Al. Nice work!!

Thanks,
Mike

Hi,

Very nice job, some nitpicking, the golden/black lines under the wings (fuselagepart) are missing:

Same goes for the upperside of the wings:
