I have made 3 military liveries for the EC135 with digital patterns as you would expect them to appear on the market in short time. The liveries are neutral, without any country markings, so go ahead and paint your favorite flag on them :). All patterns were created by me with a tool from my work. The liveries are published under the GPLv2. Dowload them from the download area.

I'm probably not the only CSI: Miami fan out there, so while experimenting with scenarios in Flightgear, I created a scenario where a silver Hummer H2 is driving around on the highways west of KMIA. Note that the scenario needs Statto's custom South Florida scenery because of the detailled roads in it. Download the scenario from the download area :).

In addition to the Finnish Frontier Guard (Rajavartiolaitos) livery for the Flightgear EC135, I also made a BK117 variant. Unfortunately, the RVL also never bought this helo, so it's again a fictional livery. You can find it as usual in the download area. Also as usual, the livery is released under the GPLv2.

We all know that glc has a little gamma problem - recorded videos are usually too dark. I was researching a bit and knitted this script which takes care of the whole encoding process. The result is a h.264 file in 720p.

In external views I rather change the distance to the aircraft than the field of view because a very big FOV creates ugly distortions.
Here is how to do this with the same buttons/axis:

I was always annoyed that the POV hat turns the view differently in cockpit views and in outside views. Here is now the solution.
