FSX USAF Douglas A-1H Skyraider

USAF Douglas A-1H Skyraider - 37-579. A repaint of the A-1J by Tim Conrad (A-1J_SKYRAIDER.ZIP). It is painted as A-1H 37-579 of 1st SOS based at Nakhon Phanom RTAFB, Thailand in 1972. The squadron codes and serial number are in a non standard font type and a red, white and blue band on top of the rudder. This aircraft was part of the last batch of Skyraiders in service with the 1st SOS and the USAF before they were transferred to the VNAF in late 1972. Repaint by Jens-Ole Kjolberg.

Installation (FsX)

A) Extract the texture files (*.bmp) in this zip file to the main A-1J folder (Install with folder path "ON")

B) Edit the aircraft.cfg files to add a new [fltsim.x] section that reads as follows:
(change "x" to be the next number in sequence -- don't duplicate or skip or it will not work)
