liner simpilot Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Is there anyone out there can repaint Project Opensky - Boeing 747-100B-PW-JT9D-7R4G2 in the Boeing House colors, There is a pay one. I would greatly appreciate it. Here is the paint. Thanks Kenny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSMR Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Could be wrong, but I think that is the 747-100 JT9D-3A’s if that pic is from the early testing days. If it IS the -100 of course. The 7R4G2’s were only on the 747-200’s I think. Along with a host of other engine models as well. Unless maybe added afterward perhaps but I thought only the -200 had those. I’m flying right now the 741 with the -7A’s. Good motor until hot and heavy and she struggles a little. https://fshub.io/airline/RUA/overview Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downwind66 Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 I just today found a chart on the 747's, the JT9D-7R4G2 only came on the -200B and the -300. Kenny - The chart shows a PW JT9D-7A for the -100 model.. That's assuming this chart is correct? It doesn't even show a -3A engine? Kenny - That is a very nice paint scheme!

Rick :cool: The -3A’s were on the original -100’s but weren’t the best performers evidently. I hear that most airliners opted for the -7A as soon as it was available. Still not great but better performance then the previous motor. And I THINK the -3A could be modded to become the -7A(W) or -7A(H) or something like that? Not sure but good to see some love for the classics!! The only heavy I fly now is the 747-100. I’ve parked my 747-400 permanently. Nothing like INS nav and manually adjusting the throttles keeping the EPR matching the charts on the climb. More work equals more joy and fun in my opinion. :) https://fshub.io/airline/RUA/overview Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downwind66 Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Sounds like a winner to me! Have a nice evening! - Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liner simpilot Posted May 26, 2018 Author Share Posted May 26, 2018 Thanks to all that responded, I enjoyed the stories and history. On flight sims, I fly the classics of the 60's-80's of various airliners & aircraft's. If you go to Screen shot forum look at the aircraft's under Liner Simliner you can see what I have flown. I thought if I can get a repaint of B747-100B house color I thought it would be great to do DC-10-30, B727-100, DC-9-10 & now the B747? all in house colors that would be different. My dad was one of the test pilots for DC-9 & DC-10, he has been gone for 38 yrs, I want to dedicate DC-9 & DC-10 to him. I have the Boeing 747-100B-PW-JT9D-7R4G2 Open Sky project model not aware of which is which that is why I am looking for a repaint of this bird.

Downwind66 Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 Kenny - Just out of curiosity, where did you find this pic which depicts the texture as it shows? I like it, just wondered where you saw it? Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liner simpilot Posted May 27, 2018 Author Share Posted May 27, 2018 Thanks for asking Rick. I googled b747-100 house colors. Should be the third row from top Rick. Kenny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downwind66 Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 [ATTACH=CONFIG]203353[/ATTACH] Never mind, Kenny, I found what you are referring to. Do you suppose those are models of the 747's? Yeah, most of them are models, some actual pictures mixed in! This is the model, not the pic that you have above. You went to the google site and searched from there, right?

Downwind66 Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 I found it Kenny! I did a google search on N7470, and got many many pics of this aircraft. Seems like someone would have done a freeware download, or at least a repaint/texture! So sad to see this 747 in the boneyard! ########Kenny - See next page, I found fs2004 freeware for this same aircraft, could you get one of these guys to tell you how to convert it to FSX? ############## Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Downwind66 Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Sweet looking bird! Yes, it is! Kenny (liner simpilot) was looking for someone to do a texture/repaint, I happened on this last evening FS2004 freeware, downloaded into FSX, made some tweeks to it, and now we both have a nice flying piece of history!

liner simpilot Posted May 28, 2018 Author Share Posted May 28, 2018 Thanks Rick, JSMR, for helping me out on this venture. I like the ones that are posted here, I clicked on the link and it said "No search results" Rick. My fault I did not specify FS9. Did a search on Flightsim website, all there was is a payware one no freeware. I wish HJG did one as I have a lot of their's downloaded, and like them all the details are fantastic as for freeware. I look forward to reading your next posts Rick. Kenny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downwind66 Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Kenny - are saying you couldn't find the download? Hold on, my friend, I have to find this for you! Rick ##### the file name is os_n7470.zip or you can pull it up going into the flightsim.com library, 2004 aircraft, advance search, Boeing 747 N7470. 4 items will appear, you will want to download the second one! ################## Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downwind66 Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Kenny - I revised my last post. Give it a try again, Sorry, it was a late night, all this info was on my PM's to you that went out in LA LA Land! It's all there, Kenny. This ended up being one of my nicer downloads! Rick No payware for this aircraft. This is freeware all the way, it's been there all along! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downwind66 Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Also, check your PM inbox, I think 1 of 3 went out to you! FS2004 (ACOF) - FS2004 Jetliners FS2004 Boeing 747-100 City of Everett [ Download | View ] Name: os_n7470.zip Size: 5,118,940 Date: 05-12-2006 Downloads: 1,447 FS2004 Boeing 747-100, N7470 "City of Everett" A repaint of the Project Open Sky 747-100/200 Version 2004.1.1.0. Travel back in time with this detailed high quality add-on and re-live that magic moment of the mighty 747's first flight. On February 9, 1969, Boeing flies its 747 model for the first time. The jumbo jet, christened the "City of Everett", (N7470 - CN20235/1) is the first new Boeing transport not painted in Boeing's traditional prototype colors of brownish-copper and yellow. Crowds of people gathered at Paine Field in Everett that morning to witness the flight of the largest transport plane in the world. Repaint by Tijn Mar.

I am so glad I found this aircraft for you. It is one sweet flying 747! AND, in the process, we both got a "Piece of history," in that this particular aircraft was the first 747 to fly!

Kenny Kenny - these entries are missing from the end of the aircraft.cfg [attitude_indicators] (This one might have been there, the other 2 were def. not! attitude_indicator.0=1 [altimeters] altimeter.0=1 altimeter.1=1 [airspeed_indicators] airspeed_indicator.0=1 airspeed_indicator.1=1 Also, I changed Autopilot entry: gs_proportional_control=9.52 to 12.00. Was landing short on ILS landings. I also lowered fuels levels down to 60% to give it better performance. Enjoy Kenny, I probably have 5 hours on mine so far. Really nice flying!
