A few days ago someone from the SuperTuxKart project visited our #flightgear IRC channel.
He showed me what he is working on for the next Version of SuperTuxKart
and suggested some cross promotion between our projects.
I like the idea to use carts fron supertuxkart and drive in the flightgear world.
Here are the .blend files for the karts if someone is interested:

He will put a FlightGear Banner & Logo in the SuperTuxKart "Airport Theme" Scenery
and I agreed to make a FlightGear livery that looks like the plane in his Scenery.
My first livery was the new germanwings based on the old germanwings for the A320 - very easy.
then I tried the Antonov AN-225 - very difficult, maybe even impossible without changing the .ac file.
then I tried the 747-200... similar story like AN-225.
Finally succeeded with the 747-400 because it has a very nice paintkit - a gimp file with layers for everything. And because only one texture file had to be changed.
I hope my "RCA" livery will be soon be included with the 747-400 to make the SuperTuxKart fans happy
and also us because Flightgear artwork will become part of SuperTuxKart.
