This freeware repaint brings the classic Air Scandic color scheme to your Airbus A300B4-200 collection for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004. It captures the airline’s distinctive visual identity through high-fidelity textures prepared by Tom Everitt, reflecting the short-lived carrier’s presence in the early 2000s. You will need the SGA base model (SGAA3B42.ZIP) from the Fly Away Simulation mod library to use these files, as this package includes textures only.
Air Scandic A300B4-200 Characteristics
The Airbus A300B4-200 is a significant development within the A300 lineup, incorporating extra fuel capacity compared to earlier variants. This twin-engine, wide-body design was pioneering for its era and offered airlines greater flexibility on mid-range routes. Air Scandic operated these aircraft primarily across European destinations, showcasing a livery noted for its bold color palette.
Focus on Wide-Body Benefits
The wide-body configuration of the A300B4-200 provided increased cabin space and improved operational economics. It also allowed carriers, including Air Scandic, to optimize payload distribution while maintaining strong performance on routes of moderate length.
Precision Repaint Details
Tom Everitt, who developed this livery, designed the surface details to reflect the original appearance of Air Scandic’s fleet. The individual markings, tail insignia, and fuselage fonts align closely with the real-world counterpart. These refined textures ensure that the final aircraft model retains authenticity and immerses you further into the airline’s era.
