What about a YAL colored regular 747? Keep the YAL textures you already have, choose this native FSX Open Sky 747-400F here, merge the VC of your choice, et voilà !

Thanks to Hiroshi Igami for his dedication to keep the Posky heritage alive!



Looks nice with the grey option of the default 747 VC...

Here's a 767-300F cargo (model OSX763FV5_CF6-80C--LL.mdl). I'll merge it with the Captain Sim 767 interior (payware). You can try a Just Flight 757 Freemium interior merge (free!).

Always wondered if Hiroshi would at some point do an FSX model for the 767. No VC just didn't excite enough. This worked like a charm and the model is one of their very best. Thanks very much for the steer.

Somebody had the wonderful idea to backup all the Posky files after the closure of the Project Open Sky web site last month:
http://poskyarchive.com/

Hiroshi Igami is regularly uploading model updates here (mostly FS9, and native FSX as well for some aircrafts):

UKMIL has one... No VC, but compatible with any FSX interior:



Hiroshi Igami (ex Posky, now SkySpririt) has a native FSX 767-KC, and is maybe working on an FSX Awacs version (E-767)...

Hum the Gas can is needed by my 440Sq RCAF. Ive got some hungry Vampire's.

Vonstroheim, where can the JASDF KC-767 base model(with textures, cfg/airfile, etc..). I've looked high and low and can't find the one you have posted in the screen shot. I did get the FSX version of the MDL file.

Download the "KC767J_Multiplayer Special Beta test IH27" here (SSPMKC767JV5_CF6-80C_IH27.ZIP) and change the mdl file with the one found here (in the 767 military section: OSXKC767J.MDL.ZIP).

Alternate japanese livery here (but intended for the Awacs version).

For VC swap procedure and panel options... sorry, too much to list... and it's a matter of taste (default 737, JF freemium 757, captain sim 767, etc...)



And remember, all the old Posky files were salvaged and are found here: http://poskyarchive.com/

[StormILM]

Thanks!

Also, I already had the JF VC and other things preset in a quick build folder in case other variations came about. It runs and looks very good.

Hi

It seems that i cannot use the boom of the FSX KC767J model. Turning on the light with gear do not make any effect to the boom.
Is there any way to operate the boom for the FSX KC767 model?

thanks!

[airattackimages]

Light with gear? Try the tailhook key.

While Hiroshi Igami was busy on the 787, he took the time to build a 777-8X and 777-9X as well, with the new GenX engines... Very impressive... So far only available in a white livery, but 4 versions, 8X and 9X, FS9 regular and FSX native.



Get it here. Please note that this is not for the casual simmer, it's a do-it-yourself-work-in-progress kind of kit-aircraft... Posky style... Depicted here is the 777-8X (I fly it with the Captain Sim 777-200 VC...).



This is no winglets... The wing tips fold! Like a F/A18!

Repaints for the new Skyspirit 2013 Boeing 777-9X are coming slowly...



Dreamliner livery by Andy Nott (skyspirit_777_9x_house.zip @ flightsim).
Based on the FS9 777-9X model by Hiroshi Igami (ssp779x_i61.zip @ flightsim).

For FSX you need to swap the FS9 mdl file by this one: SSPX779XV2--L.MDL (SSPX779XMDL_I70.ZIP @ skyspirit here: Be careful, this is not the "Rev2 Paris Airshow Research model 777-9X", but the regular (older) "Research model 777-9X").

Another nice repaint for the brand new Skyspirit 777 GenX: Air Canada by Brian Chau.

777-9X Rev 2


777-8X Rev 2


All new SkySpirit 777 files are now hosted in FB (whether you like it or not!):

Scenery is a mix of Aerosoft Manhattan X on top of MegasceneryEarth New York City Pack (an old one, includes bits of New Jersey and the whole Long Island), with a freeware Freedom Tower by Cliff Crane (avsim) a bit tweaked by me.

I don't know why I love big liners like this, and not sure if the SOH crowd is much into tubes...

And there was a time that the Italian Air Force had a nicely coloured tail on their KC-767 , so it was time to put it on the Posky/SkySpirit2010 KC767J model. Then they took away the "tri-colori" and kept it simple in just grey. Unfortunately the only thing missing on the model is the under-wing pods. But it is a great plane to fly anyways, and it is also for multiplayer use.
