That was a typo. I meant Antisocial.

Cargo / Carson Air Metroliners
« on: November 13, 2025, 09:54:40 PM »
Paints for the seven Metroliners operated by Carson Air and based at Calgary, and registered at Transport Canada in late 2025. These come with a flightplan based on Flightradar history. In fact, two!
They're painted on the venerable DJC/Craig Ritchie model.
One flightplan uses the entire fleet of seven over the course of a week, leaving at least five parked at Calgary every day of the week. The other operates the same schedule using just two aircraft, as the two main freight runs don't exactly overtax the fleet too much. Aircraft will occasionally visit Kelowna for heavy maintenance, but as these are weekly plans for the actual freight runs, I've not made any of those rare trips.

Forum members' repaints / Cessna 208B Caravan (amphibian) C-GRUC
« on: November 13, 2025, 09:46:13 PM »
A Manitoba based Caravan on floats that is based at Lac du Bonnet, but which I've based at a nearby "proper" airfield as it's an amphibian and there are more land airfields than watery ones.
It's owned by the company "3097488".
I've supplied some 52-week plans. These move the aircraft fairly locally but it also branches out to places such as Winnipeg, Regina, and out to Kelowna over the course of a year.

Okay, can't think why that might have happened, and that it took over a year for anyone to notice!
Thanks for pointing it out.

Forum members' repaints / Cessna 185F C-GYFW

A Cessna 185F amphibian that is (maybe "was") based at Kelowna. "Was" because it was substantially damaged in a water landing 11 September 2025). The extent of its injuries is not yet known, but it flipped inverted into the lake (the pilot is okay).
It's here anyway.

Forum members' repaints / Cessna 180 C-FADO
« on: October 04, 2025, 10:45:21 PM »
A Cessna 180, C-FADO, based at Kelowna. This is painted on the HTAI Cessna 185 as he made no model for the 180, which in real life has a smaller tailfin (because it has a less powerful engine).

DJ's repaints / Re: Piper PA-28 Archer ll Tyne and Wear package

If I'd bought this package for myself I'd have run off several sets by now with my automated planner. It can take a bit of setting up sometimes, but in the actual creation process it's pretty good these days.

Forum members' repaints / Southern Interior Flight Center
« on: August 31, 2025, 12:36:04 AM »
A group of Cessna 172s operated by the Southern Interior Flight Center based at Kelowna airport, BC. Four 172S and a single 172N. They come with complementary 52-week flightplans that you can use with a swapper available at Flightsim.com, or just pick one you take a fancy to.
Interestingly, SIFC is related to Carson Air, a significant medevac operator in the BC region.

Attached is a revised repaint to correct that glitch visible in the screenshots for the original version - that grey intrusion into the cream stripe on the tail.
I was evidently the first to spot this! Yay me!
