Special New Dreamfleet Livery.

[petermcleland]

Here is a special new fictional livery for the Dreamfleet B734. It commemorates 50 years of Jet airliners starting with the De-Haviland Comet.

I downloaded the small Zip file from Dreamfleet...unzipped it into the Text-o-Matic folder and Four Clicks later, there was this lovely new aircraft in my growing fleet of DF734s. All these new textures are FREE....Way to Go :-)

The only thing that livery is missing is the new FS2002 chrome effect

nice pictures, how do you ge tthe airports like that though, all the ground crews and stuff like that??

That is Oliver Pabst's Bremen...when you arrive there, you stop by a sign and wait for a "Follow Me" car. When it arrives, it leads you to your stand and the Marshaller jumps out of the car and waves you in very precisely to the right spot.

You then set some radio frequenies to indicate how long till your departure time. The pier now extends and drives up to fit exactly to your front door and a set of Mobile Airstairs drives up to your rear door.

When that has happened you can set some frequencies again, which will call for the Fuel Tanker...he will come on your left side and fill the tanks. He will be followed by the Catering Truck which will arrive at your starboard front door, screw down his four corner steady jacks and raise the catering part up to the level of your door.

When this is all finished and your departure time has arrived the pier will retract and the Airstair vehicle will drive away and park....that's it you are ready to go.

You will be pleased to know that this wonderful scenery is Freeware :-)

Hi Mario,

Glad you liked it...I downloaded it today and with it, a nice British Airways Ireland livery. There are now over 200 free liveries for the Dreamfleet B734 :-)

No it does'nt, but it does have something better. Take a look at this http://www.flightsim.com/dcforum/DCForumID3/4164.html

I'm just curious, why do people put 734 and 744 etc. Is this a typo or what?

Hi Peter,


Could you tell me your computer setup to get those great shots, especially the Video card...thanks

[petermcleland]

Mike,

It is how the Airlines abreviate their types in the timetables.

B734 is short for B737-400
B744 is short for B747-400 etc.

In fact British Airways don't even put the B in...so we get:-
744
D10
320
ATR
757
762
777
M80
M90
SF3
It is not very consistant...except that it is only 3 digits wide and it does tell you what you want to know. BTW...in the BA timetable there is only ONE exception to the 3 digit rule and that is Concorde...which goes in as Concorde :-)
