HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO ho ho ho <cough... ahem> ho, haaappppy Christmas... nearly.
Yeah, I know it is rather too early to be doling out Christmas presents but, as Grandma Grain used to say; "It's never too early to be fabulous darling". Ummm, or that might have come from Strictly... ?!?
Anyway, here is the Smeary liveries gift to those on flightsim.to who like to fly airliners and want to look festive. Sadly, regulations didnt allow me to fit the baubles and lights - too much glare. But, here is the the 'Under Wraps' collection of merriment and daftness.
Yes, they are fictional. Feel free to pitch them to the airlines - I am certain you might make an impression! However, as I am all too aware that some form of realism is key. So, here is my thinking:
By doing a spot of googling, I found that there are four main airlines who fly direct to Lapland. I know there are more, but, for the sake of this, they must land at Rovaniemi which is the closest airport to Lapland. They must also fly direct - I only wanted to make 2 versions of this and have already blown that! This left me Finnair (obviously), British Airways for Europe and American Airlines for the USA. Oh, and... oddly... lets not forget the budget option of Ryanair (which was surprising as Ryanair rarely land within 100 miles of the place you actually want to arrive at).
So... armed with rolls of festive wrapping paper and festive sticky tape, the Smeary team got to work... until we couldn't actually tell which aircraft belonged to who. So... armed with round edged scissors (safety first) we got to work again; and we have created the perfect vehicles for taking happy festive families to visit Santa and back. Once Covid ends...
Anyway, I do hope you like this little stocking filler. There is something coming (hopefully) for those who prefer not to fly commercial airlines. Maybe something in the Christmas jumper style :-)
As with all drag and drop multi-packs, please unzip outside of the community folder and then drag those suckers in. Either that... or I have heard you can just unzip them from within the community file. Your choice:-)
o7 and Happy Christmas...
