    SWS Van's RV-8  N747JG - Image 1

    Description

    N747JG built by Jim Gray who is a leading light of the Rocky Mountain Renegades. He was lead pilot while they were flying formation aerobatics, which is a heck of a job! I've included a picture of him in the company of N747DT.

    Thanks, but was our first outing in it and it's very different to what we're used to. F4F and F6F usually. We'll get better...I hope. It was nice because we were in the Redline liveries. I'll keep a look out for you.

    Stars 'n' bars relocated to proper places. Sorry about that.

    Beautiful repaint, Ron! Thanks for doing all these wonderful RV schemes! If you ever get bored, the poor RV-10 is pretty neglected. :)

    One minor issue on this one that's an easy fix: The star-and-bars insignia on the wings is on the wrong wing on top and bottom. The insignia should be on the top left wing, and bottom right. Standard for real military planes, and if you look closely at the pic of Jim's plane, his has the correct placement.

    Thanks again!

    A misspent childhood building model airplanes because flight sims didn't exist yet made this second nature. :)

    I did actually know which wings they should be on. It's just that each wing has it's own texture and I suffered a brain fart.
