Okie, I take that three replies apart from Jim's intelligent one (once again :p) were 'Yes's. I'll wait for a few hours to see if someone has any objections, if not I start to make them.

Dowly · 08-01-07, 02:02 PM

Instead of subsim aviators maybe we could be the "Flying Submariners" or what about Subsim Sea Serpents or Sub Sim Seasnakes?

Reaves · 08-01-07, 07:51 PM

Skin looks good to me.

How about Subsim Naval Airforce?

Chock · 08-01-07, 08:16 PM

Nothing wrong with Subsim Aviators as far as I can see. Besides which, everyone knows the Navy has 'Aviators' not 'Pilots', pilots steer your boat into a harbour!

I like that blue and yellow scheme, although I think the spinner would be better yellow, for exactly the same reason that the Luftwaffe did: Despite many Allied pilots at the time thinking the yellow markings denoted an elite squadron, i.e. the 'Abbeville Kids' of JG26 or whatever, that yellow nosed paint was applied as a high visibility scheme to reduce the likelihood of friendly fire incidents from bomber crews during the Battle of Britain, in a manner similar to the Allied 'invasion stripes' of 1944.
All of which means that on a server with icons off, and a frontal view of an aircraft with a yellow nose, you will know not to open fire on your buddy, and that might give you an edge that others don't have in a fight.

:hmm: good point chock,
would be handy to paint the prop nose yellow as well.

Skybird · 08-02-07, 04:25 AM

What about Neal's profile on the tail fin, like on a coin?

Or a scripture on the nose "Neal's Flying Circus"?

Dowly · 08-02-07, 07:19 AM

The nose is already yellow. I forgot to paint it yellow at first when I took the screenshot, painted it yellow and wasnt arsed to grab another shot.
