As rememberence day approaches, why not stage your own flight using this Beechcraft Kingair, ZK 459, operated by the Royal Air Force.
ZK 459 is a real life livery, operated by the RAF (45 squadron). It is stationed at RAF Cranwell, in Lincolnshire which, these days are a part of the UK Military Flying Training System.
45 Squadron were formed in 1916 in Gosport as a scout unit, flying the Sopwith 1½-Strutter in France, before re-equipping with the Camel in 1917. They are among the few RAF units to see World War Two combat against German, Italian, Vichy French and Japanese forces. The squadron has been disbanded and reformed several times over its history, and is now a multi engined training squadron.
This design is as close to the original as possible, given the mirroring, incomplete mapping and needing to hand design most elements. The interior has been given an more classic RAF feel with grreen leather and a small easter egg if you look for it. Personally - it may benefit for a tweak here or there - I am hoping that its just me being fussy though!
I have build this to allow players to put their own tail number on - although the original 'ZK459' is painted and will remain. If you don't want a tail number, simply don't add one.
Have fun with this - let me know what you think.

Props and thanks to fisherh who proposed this on 'Requests'. If you have an idea for a livery or want one made; that is the place to put it. If it is interesting and/or a bit out of the ordinary I may just pick it up:-)

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.
