Thanks. I know the static object method, which is great, but I also prefer the randomness of the the game's ParkedAircraft method, especially combined with DA's mix of airliner skins. Rather than a Cold War scenario where you would very rarely see western airliners in E Europe and vice-versa, or WW3 with no airliners except for the air bridge to Europe, I'm thinking of more modern low intensity-type scenarios where both countries would still be open for business to the outside world - say Greece/Turkey, Ethiopia/Eritrea or a South American conflict as examples. Stratos's idea of copying the aircraft for Red and Blue sides seems a bit clunky and unnecessarily bloating the Aircraft folder.. But building on this and on DA's RED_Airliner nation idea, how about just copying the skin within the aircraft and declaring the nation as RED_Airliner? Obviously you would need to set up the Userlist.ini to include Airliner and RED_Airliner and include those nations in the terrain's Nations.ini Would that then generate the parked airliners with a mix of DA's .tga skins on both red and blue airbases?

If you include the Airliner nation as both FriendlyNationxxx and EnemyNationxxx in your terrain Nations.ini list will you get parked airliners showing at both friendly and enemy bases, or is there a NeutralNation that could get this result?

Air Cav..

You know how it is. Wait ages for a(n air)bus and then two arrive at once!

Cobra gunship..

Reds..

Thanks so much Russ, he looks great in the Hawk.. But in the Gnat, it looks like the Flintstones are flying the plane! I reverted back to the PilotGnat that came with the model and swapped in your .bmp so what I now have at least fits in the cockpit and has a bit of red. which is good enough for me...
