Textures for use with the FSX native Sopwith Camel (Sopwith Camel.ZIP) aircraft by Craig Richardson, Matt Ivey, Pam Brooker and Paul Frimston.
These textures represent an F.1 Camel, Unit No. 4 Fighting School at Freiston, Serial E(7232), circa 1918. No mention of how it met its end, but it can be imagined. This aircraft is E7232 built by Ruston and Proctor in 1918. Both wings (top and bottom), tail surfaces and half of the fuselage were painted white with slanted orange stripes on top and red paralel stripes on the bottom wing. The aircraft carried national markings on the lower surfaces of the wings only. The British Air Command frowned on colourful aircrafts except in training squadrons which makes this aircraft very unusual.
Many thanks to Craig Richardson and Team for this wonderful aircraft and to Craig in particular for this very user friendly paintkit. Craig graciously consented to add specularity to the metal and wood bearing files which I modulated to add specular reflectivity of various intensity to the engine cowling, engine cover and exterior pilot 'office'.
