Super Alan,thanks a lot.
Are you going to do shiny metal repaint of the 182?
I would really like a paint of the old style shiny metal lower fuselage and cloured top half.
Thanks again.
regards Chris

Thanks everyone!.
John,
Something like that. Anti-Glare panel matte finish with some wear like Oxidation of the paint and weather beaten. Also starting to roughen up a bit from microscopic cracks due to the wear, temperatures, rain, sun... especially down here in Florida.

Re: C182 Repaint (U.S. FORESTRY SERVICES)
dammit I forgot one little part!!! UGGHHHHH Tired I guess. Haven't done that in a while.
The red leading tip of the Fin against the fuselage just front of the Yellow/black stripe should be WHITE!!! oooops!.lol)
OK It will take me 2 minutes to correct that so I'll make an update of the main *.*_t.dds file.

Re: C182 Repaint (U.S. FORESTRY SERVICES)
Beautiful stuff, there's something about the 182 that makes it look really good in "formal uniform" (e.g. USFS or CAP). And it would really be a shame to have a plane look so beautiful and stand idle, so here's a nice little utility I saw mentioned in another forum that will keep it busy:
https://github.com/ollyau/FSActiveFires/releases
Essentially, it downloads data from NASA's FIRMS site and inserts active fires in FSX/P3D (the fire/smoke effect is actually rather nice).

Tym,
I use FSActiveFires to determine ALL my virtual flights. Something different every time.
