This add-on features an authentic repaint of the default Boeing 737-800 in Myanmar Airways International’s color scheme, designed specifically for Microsoft Flight Simulator X. Created by expert contributor Robby Pauletto in Switzerland, this freeware package requires the default aircraft already included with FSX. Enthusiasts who appreciate accurate airline textures will find high-resolution detailing of the fuselage, tail fin, and engine cowlings that capture the real-world livery’s distinctive appearance. It is distributed as freeware, with the base model available separately in the Fly Away Simulation mod library.
Unique Livery Attributes
This texture makeover introduces Myanmar Airways International branding and appropriate markings across the Boeing 737-800’s airframe. The painter has ensured that the airline’s official tail insignia is precisely aligned, while the fuselage displays a balanced blend of metallic shading and national colors. All lettering has been carefully mapped so that it remains crisp around the door outlines and windows.
The vertical stabilizer displays the airline’s icon, which is instantly recognizable during takeoff and landing cycles at regional airports. The subtle shadowing effects along the wing roots and fuselage seams, along with the wear patterns, contribute to a realistic impression from external views.
Airline Background
Based at Mingaladon Airport (VYYY) in Yangon, Myanmar Airways International operates flights connecting various Southeast Asian cities. The airline is well-regarded for its regional coverage and uses modern narrow-body jets for short- to medium-haul routes. This repaint shines a spotlight on MAI’s understated yet polished branding, which is noticeable on the real aircraft in active commercial service.
Aircraft Model Characteristics
The Boeing 737-800 (sometimes noted as the B738) is a member of the Next Generation series. It features updated avionics, winglet options, and enhanced cockpit instrumentation for better operational performance. In the world of Microsoft Flight Simulator X, this default model provides an accessible platform that is reliable for both new sim pilots and seasoned captains who appreciate consistent flight dynamics and stable handling responses. This repaint leverages the existing 3D model and flight deck layout without altering aircraft performance.
Important Installation Information
- Base Model Requirement: The repaint only includes textures for the default FSX Boeing 737-800. Obtain the official base package from Fly Away Simulation’s library.
- Freeware Access: Both the repaint and the underlying model are freeware, so there are no additional costs or licensing restrictions.
