Nice! But 45$? The price could be a little lower, I see that they dont want to save the wallet of users however I have not seen Hellcat from very long time in whatever simulator so it must be purchased by me of course.
btw. do you have any idea what is a carrier? Hellcat without WW2 carrier is like beer without carbon dioxide plus hot drink .

Keep in mind that in US dollars, that about $30. My actual charged amount was $30.49 and from about an hour flying her this AM, she's more than worth that. :-)

I see 45 and they arent AU$ I suppose: https://i.imgur.com/ZWpWZEs.jpg. 30 it's very good level. Maybe I'll wait when it will be in the other stores (like Just Flight for example).
Edit. confirmed - 45 but AU, so near 30USD. Good!

Started on a FAA repaint (D-day), question for the purists among us here :-)
What is the best estimate of the colour of the outline of the Squadron code?
Or were there different colours?

I need to learn to repaint MSFS planes. For one thing, the Blue Angels Hellcat is the wrong color, they were not in the color which became known as Blue Angels Blue until the Blues flew the Bearcat. The were not non-specular Sea Blue either. The Hellcats used for three shows in 1946 were painted in a glossy Insignia Blue overall, with the yellow/gold lettering. This is from the boss Butch Voris himself, as per my conversation with him at a Blue Angels show at Oceana NAS in 1993.

Caz, it is not difficult, even I can do it, and I'm colorblind!
I wrote a tutorial a while ago, maybe a starting point?

Thanks much for the tutorial Jankees, I copied and pasted all three parts in Word. Does the F6F have a Paint Kit? They do always help. I would like to repaint the Blue Angles Hellcat, because the color is incorrect. I know this from the Boss himself, Butch Voris. I had a long talk with him at the Blue Angels airshow at Oceana NAS (VA) in 1993. There was no such color as what is now known as Blue Angles Blue then and the new demonstration squadron wanted something a little different than Non-Specter Sea Blue. So a decision was made to use a gloss Insignia Blue overall. In case you would like to take this on and redo it, Insignia Blue is FS 35044, sample attached. I don't know how to make it glossy in MSFS, as the original is matte, as shown by the FS number.
Thanks again for all your repaints and the tut,
Caz
Errata: FS is 35044, not 35055 as shown, color is correct, I goofed in PS!

Jan Kees.. She's a looker alright ! (great spinning prop image for one thing !)
So no '3D prop' ??....
I have read/heard that the flightmodel was created 'outside' of the MS/Asobo config., i.e. completely independent ? Do you notice anything in that direction ?
Thanks !
Is that your first repaint already ??... Looks great !
Bought this model early this morning, looks and flies great! The engine sounds are also excellent. Some of the best money I have spent on a FS2020 model so far.
