E-Jets 175/195

Hello everyone!

I joined air-child just two days ago, and there is one problem. Your fleet consists only 170/190, but I have a payware (Feelthere) version which has only 175/195 versions.

I think this isn't a big problem overall, but the repaint for E190 won't work with 195, because it is two meters longer. Is there any solution, like creating new repaint? :think:

It would be really unpleasant to be unable to fly in the colors of Air-Child :(
 
Hi Marcus, welcome aboard! :hi:

The 2 meters difference in length shouldn't be a problem for the paint if Feelthere had simply stretched their 3D model. Their E-Jets exist in two versions: 170/190 as the older version and 175/195 being the latest release. Obviously they designed a completely new model for the new version. In that case, even if V2.2 had been the same aircraft variants, repaints for older versions would not be compatible.

I suppose the reason for the 175/195 variant is pure business because the technical differences are really minor, compared to the slightly shorter jets. A new release of the 170/190 would have to be considered as a simple update, while a new variant can be sold as a new product ... :think:

Well, the only solution would be a new repaint, as you say. Someone having the new version would have to do it. I only have the 190/170 models and don't intend to "upgrade".

Volunteers? Anyone?

The last 3 years have shown that aircraft painting is not extremely popular among most of our members :lol: Also maybe not many have those new E-Jets yet.

If you find the paint kit for these models, send it to peter[ at ]air-child.com. I'll have a look and see how much it differs from the older version. No guarantees, though.
Or maybe Andrew will take a look - if I send him pizza & beer .... :p

Will that come packaged with the fs9 pmdg 737 psd files? ;)


Awaits a reply of 'oh I forgot', followed by some work excuse :LOL: :D

Here's a link where you can download the paint kit :)

I currently fly the the E-Jets using house colors. This is for the feelThere E-Jets right? These are my favorite planes.

I can paint for you people but only for the FSX version. I will need the following from previous painters:
1) Air child logos
2) Color palet templates.

Great! We have a volunteer :D

Jayson, you can find the basic stuff in this file:

A link to that file is also on the intro page of "repaints", although somewhat hidden ;)
 
Ah thanks. I was wondering where that is. Anyway it may take some time based on my schedule.
 
Here is a preview of the E195. This is a modification of Matej's E190 livery. So I'm waiting for his permission to share to the community. ;) Take note that I don't plan on doing the E175 though. :S

There are no E175's in our fleet anyway ;)

You said earlier, that this repaint is for FSX only. Does it require lots of converting to make it work with FS9 too, or is it a simple task?
 
Matej still hasn't replied to the PM I sent. Last visited the forums in Oct. :(

As for FS2004, we just have to find out what it looks like. ;)
