Thanks for downloading my repaint of my friend's terrific Hughes 550, amphibian, (Bjorn).
I created this paint especially for the Emma Field scenery by Lagonline. If you have'nt gotten it, you should. It contains animations never before seen in sceneries, including environmental sounds.

This repaint is a Gmax model therefore has reflections. I also incorporated dirt, weathering, and shadows. Giving it a more true to life appearance for the location of it's base and purpose.

Simply unzip this file to a temp directory, then drag and drop the folder into your fs2002/aircraft folder.
I will do a few more repaints for the Ranger Creek sceneries as well.

Thank you Bjorn for letting me paint on your helicopter my friend.
