British Caledonian (G-BCAL) 1980's livery on Headwind Airbus A330neo-900
Had to make this request as British Caledonian was the flight time I ever flew, on a Boeing 747-200 no less when aged six and travelling business class with fam, and many fond memories going from Hong Kong to Bahrain (via Bombay for an engine trouble tech-stop!) to London Gatwick and back. Anyway, in our metaverse, British Caledonian is still around and they've decided to do a retro livery on their first Airbus A330neo, complete with registration G-BCAL which used to belong to a long retired Boeing 707. There are two variants in this download, there's the one like the requested Airbus A310 copy with huge (ugly) BCAL logos on the engine nacelles... or (my much preferred) unstated ones with the Rolls Royce logos as per the Boeing jets (B707 and B747)...
Installation:
- Download & unzip
- Place in Community folder
- Launch MSFS
- Pick either G-BCAL with the nice Rolls Royce logos, or fugly big BCAL logos, on the engine nacelles
- Fly!

Brilliant livery, and a personal favourite. Engine textures are a minor issue, but doesn't distract from the great quality of the aircraft

Just taking the new headwind a330-900 out for a test flight and the engine graphics are messed up (due to the new modelling) for the second British Caledonian livery. Could you please update, thank you. Definitely wan to keep flying this one.

One of my favourites liveries to fly. Hope you can update the livery to the latest headwind a330-900.

Both of your New Zealand liveries display with pink windows and metal parts when spawned in at the default EGLL scenery. I only have the latest headwind Mod version 0.93 and your livery in the Community folder so I don't think there is anything more I can do to resolve this problem. For what it is worth, all other A330-900 liveries, even the default ones, display exactly the same. I never had this problem with the initial version of the headwind mod so I have no idea what is causing it. Thanks for all your help I think I'll just avoid the A330-900 mod and fly all my other aircraft that which do not have this problem.

Are you on the Steam or Windows Store version of MSFS? How about the default Headwind A330neo liveries (Airbus House, etc)? If those are broken, then it seems to be a problem with the mod and report it on his page instead... https://flightsim.to/file/18198/airbus-a330-900neo-conversion

Looks really good, love the classic lines. I'll fly with the RR engine markings.
I am surprised that the file is so huge 2.8 GB? That's really big (1.4GB per livery).

Glad you like 'em and likewise I much prefer the classier RR version... regarding size, yes even "compressed" DDS textures take up that much space sadly when they're 8K resolution...

This livery looks stunning but it spawns into the simulator virtually all pink. I'm using the latest Headwind Mod 0.93. Any suggestions?

The package has two variant liveries which should show up in the list next to each other... do they BOTH do that, or just one, or does only one show? In your /Communities/ folder, is it "headwind-a330neo_British_Caledonian_G-BCAL"... I'm on Sim Update 7 and using Headwind A330neo v0.7.3 and don't see this issue. Try deleting, then if you have 7zip installed, just right-click drag the ZIP file to the /Communities/ folder, and chose "extract to here"...
