Does anyone have the red & yellow canopy Align 600SNP mod for the Reflex Sim?

It's very easy to change the model appearance if you have the needed photos of the real canopy or even just with any photo editing software if the layout of the canopy design is simple. In few words you simply edit the bitmap used by the model and overlap your canopy design to the original ones. I cannot tell you right now, but when I get home I could make a simple guide to do it.
Is there a life outside the sim?

Here it goes:
1.-Open RMK (model construction program) 2.-Import mod object (the .mod file of the aircraft you want to modify) 3.- Go to the TEXT folder under REFLEX folder and there you will find a tex0.bmp file with the textures your model use. 4.- Edit with the photo editing software you use and paste your own canopy photos over the original file. You must try to make the photos from all the orientationa that appear in the original file and overlap them all with your own ones. 5.- Save the tex0.bmp file. The model in RMK will show the changes as soon as you save the bmp file. 6.- Export the new mod object (generate the model you can use in reflex). Optionally save the project too incase you may want to make further changes. An example of 3dnt edited with mspaint (just painted a red circle in the right side:
