Sorry all seems theres been a mix up The buffalo textures are not in the Buffalo zip file they seem to have been replaced with the Northwest Territories textures. I have resubmitted the Buffalo textures and they should be available shortly.

Rory:

Both files are there its just that the files got switched - the NWTs are in the Buffalo folder and the Buffalos are in the NWT folder :)

Thanks guys There is a new zip file with both the Buffalos inside just a word though, This time I screwed up, I forgot to insert step three which is to copy the contents of the base texture folder into both the other texture folders, I will be submitting a "fix" file with the correct instructions:o

Here's a shot of one of the original Electra launch customer airlines - KLM flew L-188s on international and overseas routes

This is JR Lucariny's FS9/FSX L-188 model
