"The Texaco #17 of the Texas Co. was one of the more prominent business-owned airplanes and was seen all over the central and eastern part of the country with Hal Henning as pilot." (American Civil Aircraft, vol 5)
This repaint is a fairly faithful representation of #17, which has had a few changes to its paint scheme over the years.
Since the Texaco 17 was a WACO UBF with the 210 hp Continental W670, the aircraft.cfg upgrades the engine from the QCF's 170hp Continental - with the gracious permission of Paul from Golden Wings Simulations. If you for some reason do not want the extra 40 hp, the original engine data is preserved in comments so that you can switch back.
This repaint requires that the Golden Simulations payware Waco F package be installed on your computer. You can get the Waco F package at http://www.goldensimulations.com. Its easily the best simulation of a classic light biplane out there and well worth the $20.
Thanks to the Golden Simulations team for providing this great airplane to the flightsim community.
This package includes two bonus paints: When I got the Waco F package I immediately wished I had an INF with yellow wings and I even wanted a red one. So I put both together. Thought I would share them with you.
There is no reason whatsoever that these files can harm your computer. These files are offered free and I cannot be held responsible for any damage. If you choose to use them, you agree to do so at your own risk.
