Hi Welshflyer -

Thankyou for the recomendation in here - that is appreciated.

Patrick the programs you need are:

1. Paint editing program, ie:PSP or Photoshop (I would advise PSP)
2. DXT3
3. FSRepaint

If you want to know how to paint I would suggest you take a look at this Tutorial for PSP.
Cheers and Safe Flying

Is PSP XI ok to use or does one have to have version 7? If so, where can it be found for purchase?

TIA

naflod -

The Tutorial isnt my tutorial, just one I know of and what I used to get started.

Painting FSX planes is completely different to painting FS9 planes and this tutorial only deals with FS9.

You will have to find a tutorial that deals specifaclly with FSX repaints - something I cant help you with sorry.
Cheers and Safe Flying
