Post by: 1sum41 on August 30, 2010, 10:59:42 PM

hey all my friend out here in georgetown has a p51 named buzzin cuzzin. the plane was in the 78th Fighter Group . his name is kent holiday. i was wondering if any of yall could skin his plane for me. it is the same skin (just redone) as the one used in WW2.

Never been a big fan of the 78th Ponies, but I like that one. Would make a nice wingman for 'Big Beautiful Doll'.

While it would be nice to have, the P51D skin slots are full. I very highly doubt HTC would accept new pony skins for a long time to come. I am sorry.

Yeah, but some of the ones we have are crap.

I volunteer Cactus/Oboe for the job, but only if I get a ride in it ;) .

Beatiful bird.  Does Kent Holiday fly in AH?  Great idea, Tordon - I would definitely skin it for a ride!

Maybe Skuzzy would promise to swap it into the game for a ride, too?   :pray

Were the "rear view mirrors" standard or an add? Is that vinyl decals or paint on the fuselage? A beautiful ship none the less. My personal preference is a worn, war-used look but then again, I can't afford a WWII warbird lol!

The mirrors were a pretty standard addon. I think they were made under contract but not fitted at the factory, but I forget exactly.

RAF Spitfire cupped mirrors.  Lots of the 8th AF Mustangs managed to get them too.

How ya doing Treize!  It's been a while :)

Yeah, I knew the T-Bolt mirrors were usually ripped off a SpitV, but wasn't sure on the Ponies.

I take it you didn't get my PM a couple weeks ago, Dan?  :cheers:
