Hi.
This might be a dumb question, but how can I unlock planes from the museum?

Thanks ;D I love flying old airliners, but there aren't many good...
Can anyone suggest some models? (freeware)
Till now the only one that's really well made is the Project Tupolev Tu-154...

Tu-154 was not in the EHM fleet. It is a very nice bird, a true resemblance of the B727.

There were plans to include birds, like Super Constellation, B707, B727, Comet, Boeing Clipper and maybe Junkers-52. So far, only the DC-3 succeeded on the casting :)

I think it was Robert's private jet, since the two pictures I saw of it (one at Chicago O'Hare Int'l, and the other at Osaka Kansai I think) were both taken by Robert.

Anyway, a vintage fleet sounds really cool!

Javier, you could repaint the A380 in EuroHarmony colors!! Don't think the MT would allow it though :>

Well, as soon  as you do not present any screenshots, and not use the repaint on EuroHarmony routes -especially when it is an unsupported model- you can repaint any airplanes for your fun. ;)

FSRepaint is the system I use, but you can't really make shades very well.

whats the best way of getting that? can you download it off the internet? or do you have to actually physically purchase it? any freeware paint programs? ( i'm such a tight-fisted.... )  :)

It's Payware, you can order it off amazon for about £15 (for the UK. Not sure whether it differs for Ireland). Why does it always change for Ireland?

I didn't know you had to use MS Repaint. My Captain Sim 757 comes with a repaint kit, but I think I need photoshop to make the repaints which might make things slightly tricky...

I am sure there is not a general tutorial out there about painting. You need to learn by yourself, I believe. I still use the good'ol Photoshop v6. It is 6 year old now ;D You should ask some friends if they had some dusty Photoshop CD-s that may offer you for free ;)
