FS2004 Air Atlanta Cargo Boeing 747-400F

This freeware cargo repaint brings Air Atlanta’s distinctive 747-400F markings into Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 (FS2004). Created by Guy Sterges, it replicates the broad fuselage design used by this Icelandic-based freight operator, although the final rendition may not mirror every detail of the real-world aircraft.

Airframe and Operational Characteristics

The Boeing 747-400F variant remains a preferred option for global cargo transportation, featuring an optional nose-loading door and a reinforced main deck. This rendition focuses on the fuselage layout and tail markings specific to Air Atlanta Cargo’s fleet, ensuring a faithful—yet not fully identical—portrayal. The 747-400 design typically includes a higher capacity fuel system, a refined wing architecture for extended range, and advanced cockpit avionics that streamline long-haul performances.

Livery Elements

In this custom-textured package, the tail section highlights the airline’s official emblem, while the fuselage boasts a standard cargo paint scheme. The primary goal was to strike a balance between visual authenticity and smooth integration within the FS2004 environment, making it suitable for both short- and long-distance freight operations.
