Where did you find those?
 
My first turn and all works very well.
It's a great fun, to fly this little gem.

Thank you very much, Henk and Ed
and the AMX developers.

I asked Matt Wynn that same question. My first thought was that it might have been a "wrap", but he said he was sure it had been done probably by a team of painters. . .still seems crazy to me, but effective.

Closeups, looks like real paint(brush) job. Would be h*ll of a job!

Great Shots Ulrich and of course thanks for your contribution to get the AMX updated to Native FSX.
 
Took 2 quick shots on another flight from Mather AFB to Mountain Home ABF. Flies just like an aircraft should!

I'm just dreaming of course, but if we could get modern weaponry and equipment (pods) on this beauty, that would be a dream!

My bet would be a screenprint...spray over stencil....;)
Trick would be to look for any repeated patterns...;)

Any thoughts on the AMX? Once you've flown it, why not post your impressions, screenshots, etc.

Quite nice. It flies a nice aerobatic routine. The GPS took a minute to figure out but everything else was easy. I like the loadout panel. The AMX doesn't look like it should be able to carry those four fuel tanks! I've only flown it clean, but I want to see what a near max load does to performance. (The gear does squat quite a bit when you hang all four tanks on it!) I'm going to try the sound from Flying Stations Buccaneer though as it also used the RR Spey and it does sound a bit meaner.

FYI:

AER.1F-AMX-1 Flight Manual AMX series Aircraft


External Tanks
The four underwing pylons have provisions to carry external fuel tanks, however only two tanks can installed at a time. . .either on the inboard pair or on the outboard pair.

When either one or two external tanks are fitted to inboard pylons, operation of the transfer and refuel system in the inboard pylons is inhibited and conversely.
 
Thank you to all involved in this project, it flyes like a dream, here in Italy this jet is also named Topone ( =big mouse) because of the shape of the
nose :)
 
I must have been first in line at Flightsim dot com this morning, the AMX is already posted for download.

Interesting you would say that. I uploaded to Simviation and Flightsim around 9:30. I left to run some errands around town and when I got back Simviation showed 106 downloads and Flightsim another 44. I don't see how Simviation have that many, but that's what it showed.

Both have a huge member base. I think you'll see a lot more. A fitting tribute to a brilliant model brought back from oblivion.

What you and the team did, the generosity of the original dev, that is simply brilliant. I feel honoured that you let me test it.

I can't thank you and the team enough for this.

And given that you've included the paint kit, makes me hope for a lot of repaints!!

Cheers,

Priller
