Along with that you may also want to check out the TCA homepage. I've just released four more repaints. I will make a post later today in the screenshot forum as well along with showing some pictures.

I've just updated the site regarding adding 4 repaints of the B777-200ER to the MSFS 2020 payware hangar. 
These are two aircraft (XA-TFA/XA-TFB) for Tradewind Mexico and two aircraft (F-OHFA/F-OHFB) for Tradewind Pacific. 

Enjoy these aircraft.]]>

Roughly a year ago I announced Tradewind Vacations, which primary tasking will be flying to the main holiday spots in different locations of the world. This of course includes destinations in Europe as well (mainly served from European origins like Amsterdam), as also some other places like the Caribbean, the Indian Ocean, North Africa and the Middle East. 

So it happened on June 9th that I was able to finally fly from Amsterdam to Palma de Mallorca (LEPA). For the return flight I decided to take some pictures to show you the livery of the B737-800 and also take you along the route of the flight. 

So, first we are here at Gate 52 at Palma de Mallorca's very nicely done freeware scenery by EuroScene (https://flightsim.to/file/84186/lepa-palma-de-mallorca-airport) and the aircraft being loaded for the flight to Amsterdam.

After takeoff we followed the SID which took us around the island towards the Spanish mainland near Barcelona.
Here we are passing near El Toro and Santa Ponça.

En-route we also flew past Toulouse, France.

Unfortunately I forgot to take pictures of the aircraft at the gate. 

Anyhow, I hope you like the pictures and also the outlook of what to expect in the future. At least I have finalized the the flight numbers for departing/arriving Amsterdam - now I need to look at the times. I have also done repaints for the B777-200ER and B777-300ER for MSFS 2020. I still didn't get me MSFS 2024, hence there are still no repaints for this simulator, as the format of the textures is different. 

Have fun!]]>

Earlier today I've released repaints for the PMDG B777-200ER ins Tradewind Alaska and Tradewind Caribbean colors so far. There are still a few minor issues, which are related to PMDG - at least it is their responsibility to solve these. I doubt that you might recognize it unless you know exactly where and what to look for. Nonetheless it is not a show stopper at all, but I thought you deserve these repaints if you own the aircraft and want to fly in our colors.

First I will start with a Tradewind Alaska repaint. Of course we let everybody know that there is Wi-Fi on board.

Unfortunately I was only able to test all of this within FS2020 and there seems to be a problem installing them into FS2024 using OC3 so far.
But you should be able to manually extract the zip-archive into the relevant aircraft folder and thereafter use MSFSLayoutGenerator.exe to complete the installation (drag layout.json over the MSFSLayoutGenerator.exe file).
Anyhow, enjoy these repaints.]]>

Work on the PMDG B777-200 has started. I already have some pictures for you, as the general painting is done and only some corrections need to be made.
Maybe next weekend it might be ready for release. If things go well, it might be earlier.

We will get the 'old' PJ-LRG' once for FSX  and P3D in MSFS2020 for sure. In addition there will also be a second aircraft 'PJ-LRH', which will released along with the 'G', as this is only enabling/disabling layers in Photoshop.

Tradewind Alaska Cargo will also get two aircraft: the 'old' N778TA and a new one: N779TA

I will show some pictures of PJ-LRG being pushed back from its parking position at Barbados for its flight to Guadeloupe (TFFR).

Regarding the October Cargo Dispatch I only discovered yesterday, that I had a typo for Barbuda included. This is corrected in the October Cargo Dispatch now, as it also is corrected inside the OFR database.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

But I still do hope that you enjoy(ed) all of these flights (past and present) nonetheless.]]>

I have done the first repaints for the B777-300ER by PMDG for MSFS.
The first repaints for TCA will be four aircraft with one old aircraft (PJ-TGH). I did four airframes due to the F1-Charter flights, so every pilot that flies these charters can have his own aircraft.
Nonetheless I did 4 aircraft in TCA standard colors and also four with F1 titles/logos. Two of these aircraft are also F1-Theme jets, so they got added some other stuff to their skins.

I also did two aircraft for Tradewind Alaska, which are also already 'exist' for FSX/P3D and XPlane as well.

But now it is time to show you some pictures: PJ-TGH-F1 including cabin

I've updated the site right now and we got two new additions to the payware hangar with the Flysimware Cessna 414AW in TDM

and TAA colors.

Unfortunately I've recently discovered that I missed an error in the registration of the Tradewind European B737-800 BW (PH-TEB), as the front left registration showed PJ-TEB instead of PH-TEB. I've uploaded the correct package as whole if you want to download it and re-install it, or you can just change the relevant file by downloading it separately. All files can be accessed from the payware hanger site: clicking the picture will get you the ptp-file and clicking the link below will lead you to the front fuselage file itself which needs to be replaced accordingly.

Of course the Cargo Dispatch for June has also been added as usual.

Well, behind the scenes work has begun on an additional department, which eventually might be named Tradewind Vacations. The idea behind this is simply the fact, that nowadays with MSFS 2020 we have such beautiful destinations, not only within the Caribbean, but also in Europe, that it would be a shame if not make use of these. In other words, this department will provide flights to mainly tourist destinations, for example Amsterdam as origin to some of the Greek Islands. The same also applies from origins in the US and Canada to the Caribbean beaches. Although we have a vast net of flights in the Caribbean, if you look for a flight that reflects high quality scenery that you might have and want to connect these airports with a flight from TCA, you may not find it. Try to find a flight from Houston ( KIAH) to some nice Caribbean destinations, you eventually won't find what you are looking for.
So if you have any suggestions for airport pairs you want to see added, let us know about it, and we most likely will add them. Flights from Europe to beach destinations around the Caribbean will also be added, once PMDG finally releases the B777-300ER.
And to tease you a little bit more, I will show you a picture of the PMDG B737-800 in (early) Tradewind Vacations paint scheme:

This picture doesn't show the current state of the aircraft, as I did some corrections to it, but you might get an idea how it would like in general.

I am wishing you all a joyful summertime for you and your beloved ones.]]>

I've updated the page regarding adding another B737-800 repaint. This time it is a BBJ2. I added it early this day, but unfortunately I messed up the orientation of the flag on the right hand side. This is corrected by now and if you downloaded the file before Feb 4th 12:45 UTC, you may have the old file. After that it should be the corrected version. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I've just updated the site and added four more repaints to the payware hangar. Two aircraft for Tradewind Alaska Cargo and two repaints for Tradewind Pacific.
I've also updated all passenger cabins. The arm rests were displaying the PMDG logo. I changed it according to the department the aircraft is assigned to now. Although the old PMDG logo somehow shines through slightly -  I don't know why this happens. But I am sure you will only notice this now that I made you aware of this I've also added the blue palm tree to the vertical stabilizer of the Tradewind Brazil aircraft as well. They were missing in the original release.

I suggest to uninstall of the relevant repaints through the Operations Center and install the corrected repaints.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Enjoy these repaints.]]>

You can expect at least two releases of the B737-800 by PMDG in the colors of Tradewind Brazil.
Below is a screenshot of PP-GCQ in SSW configuration. A blended winglet configuration is also due to release (PP-GCP).



I am also working on B737-800 BCF's with BW and SSW.









I am also planning on doing the BCF's for Tradewind Alaska Cargo as well. And finally two aircraft for Tradewind Pacific are also planned...
So stay tuned ]]>

I've updated the recently released repaints of the B737-800 variants. These are all small corrections: I've corrected the placard in the VC for the Reg and SELCAL regarding a missing dash (-) between the two letter pairs. This affects all repaints.
I've also corrected some minor issues with the Split Scimitar Winglet version off all three departments as well. I aligned the height of the color stripes accordingly.
