Title: Question for Greebo - 800S/FAA skin
Post by: Jester on December 24, 2004, 08:26:19 AM
Greebo,

Do you have a pic to back up the skin you made for the No. 800 Sqdn. FAA Hellcat?

We started a squad awhile back based on this squadron and I did alot of research on them is why my question.

800 Sqdn. Was deployed aboard HMS EMPERIOR and should display a large red "E" as that was her code symbol. Was wondering where you go the "T" at.
Could you please advise.

Otherwise a great looking skin. !  :aok

he did that most likely because the skin is mirrored on both sides and an E would be backwards on the other side while a T would not.

Yeah, what Fester said. I was going to use an A instead of a T but figured HTC might not want a plane with "AW" on the side. :)
