Man... I can't wait HTC to publish a skin editor. That's something that the new AW guys must miss. I recall helping FIDD and the Kraits to publish SAC     :cool:

I lost all my hopes. My pretty Gabby D25 has Bazilians colors. We have now the Gabby plane but it's the D11. Tell me about it, it's camouflaged such a way that it could be any razorback from the 8th.     :mad:

Rahhhhhhhh!!!! Vengeance! Pyro, I'm still painfully saving for a plane ticket to texas... I need to plead my cause in person.    :D

The jug in the video is from the Kalamazoo Aviation History Museum--aka the Kalamazoo "Air Zoo".  Here's a couple pics:
