This folder contains a repaint for the Piper L-4 Grasshopper by Flightreplicas. It shows Piper J-3C-65 G-AXHR in yellow. Built in 1943 with c/n 10892, it flew with the USAAF as 43-29601, became F-BETI in 1948, and went to the UK becoming G-AXHR in 1969. Originally it flew in the yellow Piper colors depicted here, at present it is back in its WW2 camouflage colors. It is still airworthy. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom.
Note:
Some people report that my Piper Grasshopper paints are not working for them. Apparently there are two versions fort he Grasshopper in circulation, one on offer directly with Flight Replicas (where I bought it), and one available via the Marketplace.
If none of my Grasshopper paints work for you, then the problem is probably in the title of the airplane folder: For my version it says "FR_L-4H_Grasshopper_liaison", my guess is yours says " L-4_Aircraft_liaison".
If you have this last version, the solution is relatively simple. You have to change two things in each repaint: Change one line in the aircraft.cfg, ànd one line in the texture.cfg, in both cases replacing "FR_L-4H_Grasshopper_liaison" with "L-4_aircraft_liaison" so that you get
base_container = "..\ L-4_Aircraft_liaison” in the aircraft.cfg file
and
"fallback.1=..\..\ L-4_Aircraft_liaison\texture.LD" in the texture.cfg file
Theoretically, the paints should show up then.
Sorry about this,
Jan Kees

I purchased from Flight Replacas and cannot get your paint to show. I cut and pasted the changes you said, but still no show. Not even "pink". Cannot make changes to the aircraft.cfg as it is read only.

He descomprimido en un archivo temporal y luego instalado en la carpeta Community pero no funciona , no aparece la textura en el simulador, algo falla.

Very good, nice to see British civil for the Cub. Users with the latest L4 update will need to tweak a couple of CFG files in the texture folders or they'll get the pink squares...

PaulHolmes could you please be more specific about the tweaks of the CFG files in the texture folders.
I have bought the Piper L-4 Grasshopper (v1.2) from the Marketplace and the repaint texture does not even load.
