Repaint:  February


 This is "February�, registry N351MX, painted with the distinctive red stripes of the 31st Fighter Group, 15th AF from WWII.
 �February� was flown by the highly decorated pilot Lt. Jim Brooks of the 307th Fighter Squadron, 31st Fighter Group in WWII.
 In the present day, it is owned and operated by the Friedkin family warbird collection (Comanche Fighters LLC) in Houston, Texas.
 It has made many memorable and fantastic airshow appearances, including the Duxford Flying Legends Airshow in 2011.
 It�s a real treat and joy to see this airplane.

 Aligning the stripes to keep the continuity between disjointed control surfaces while also trying to keep the relative positioning of the tail numbers
 to the stripes were all part of the repainting �fun�.
 


 Here's another screenshot of February in FSX. This screenshot recreates/simulates a special low level formation pass that was performed at the NAS Oceana Airshow
 back in Sep 2010.

 After looking for ways to merge the helmet's fixed Visor Cover into the Horsemen Flight Team theme, I tried a gradient color pattern on the
 visor cover. Also I adjusted the color on the microphone boom parts.
