These are Canadian Coast Guard Alouette III liveries for Taog's Hangar's fantastic model and using his paint kit.
Updated for Version 1.3 of Taog's Hangar's Alouette III.
The older file 1.0 (Not updated to Ver 1.3) is C-FCAX's final livery before retirement and how she sits today. (Sans floats)
The new file, Ver 1.3 is how C-FCAX appeared when operational.
She was based out of Victoria British Columbia, Canada until her retirement.
A little history found on the web. (Please feel free to correct me where I have made errors.)
C-FCAX was manufactured in June, 1965 and first flown as F-WKQI by Aerospatiale in Marignane, France. On July 11,1966, the Canadian Department of Transport received the first SA316B Alouette III, Registered now as C-FCAX, with two more aircraft delivered in 1967. Now fitted with permanent floats, they were deployed from Quebec City to maintain maritime navigation aids and operated from ice breakers. All three were transferred to Victoria airport, CYYJ in the late 1960s, delivered to the Canadian Coast Guard and used on the Pacific Coast to support remote lighthouses and the Western Arctic, NWT. She served the Guard for 20 years until replaced by new MBB B0105's in the 1980's. Transport Canada oprated her last flight on Jan 30, 1987 for the Canadian Coast Guard from Parksville to CYYJ in Victoria. Pilot: Jones.
In 1989, Department of Transport Canada donated C-FCAX to British Columbia Institute of Technology as a ground instructional airframe.

This was my first upload to Flightsim.to and was mostly done "old school" with GIMP and using Blender to find components.
Here she is, warts and all.
If you have the previous version of this livery for the original Taog Alouette III ver 1.0,
please remove and replace the files with these to update it.
Otherwise just place the folder named: taog-alouette C-FCAX LATE RED into your community folder and fire it up!

Me too. Ha ha.
I am in the process of completing all 3 ships. C-FCAW, C-FCAX and C-FCAZ in their
70s, 80s and 90s liveries. That makes 9 liveries in total.
