iking Airlines is a Swedish airline company that started operations in May of 2003 with just two MD83s which are based at Heraklion in Greece and operate charter flights on behalf of a number of tour operators destinations throughout Europe.

This update file replaces the previous vikmd83.zip. It fixes the position of the tail logo and reg number on the engines. This file is textures only. You will need to download Steve Drabek's SGA MD83 (sga_md83.zip).

This is my repaint of the superb MD83 by Steve Drabek of SGA. Some of the textures are by Mike Baumann/SGA (side windows and reworked doors).

Extract the contents of this zip file into a temporary location.

Copy the folder 'texture.viking' into your SGA MD83 folder.

There are some excellent panels that you can use with this aircraft in FS9:

Ken Mitchell's md83_pan.zip and md83_fix.zip

Marco Spada's md80-k4.zip and mdped.zip

Andrew Pritchard put together Marco Spada's panel plus surrounding cockpit views from Marco Diaz and checklist from Werner Schott in his file com_md80.zip

Modifying the aircraft.cfg file...

Copy the section below into your existing SGA MD83 aircraft.cfg file and change the line fltsim.X to have the next number in sequence.
