Any Chance of doing one of the ill fated air memphis 707's? To me there one of the coolest looking of the present day 707's I beleave they had stage 3 hushkits similar to the Lowa LTD 707 www.airliners.net/open.file/0731947/M/the last one overan the runway in 2004 and was written off unfortunatly  BTW Thanks for the hardwork, I have many of the jets on this site. |

Sorry we do not have the hush kit model but they operated a 328C in blue livery that may be worth doing???

The blue from SU-PBB is a nice livery too. I remember seeing a sad one of that jet in the scrapper on airliners.net

I have the model built for SU-AVZ, I just need the right font for the fuselage titles. If anyone would like to help, please feel free. Once her paint looks right I'll upload her.  Cheers, Gary |

wow nice model gary!  Very thankful someone has done the Air Memphis livery. Found this pic if it helps. Looks like some kind of white outline bordering the letters. www.airliners.net/open.file/0471636/L/ |

Just a word about that Roman font
The "A" and the "M" are quite different with a thin left side on the real one

Sorry Tony, I had this one buried in my stack of "stuff to do" for a while, and only now pulled it out when the subject was brought up. I'll keep looking for the right text, but If I can't find it, I might just get it as close as I can.
Cheers, Gary

 as does TNR Garry,only one should put a white outline in it. as far as i can see,it is either times new roman or a slight variation on it. the ends of the S and E for instance are the same. also notice how the right tilted beam of the M is smaller, just as it is above. |

I see what your saying, I'll try it out and see if I can get the outline.
Cheers, Gary

Going through Word, Garamond (unbolded) looks to be the closest to the Air Memphis titles. I would try doing the effect that they have by adding a slight shadow to a second line of text that is a couple of points larger than the base (obviously this would have to be done letter-by-letter) that are just outlines.
