FS2004 Simmer's Sky SMS - MD-11

MD-11 with functional virtual cockpit in old Delta colors. Repainted by Jim Waters.

The version 2.0 was made available with very little fanfare and seemed to miss the attention of the flight sim sites. It is not difficult to repaint if you are so inclined, which I am. I am contemplating repaints in the United livery, Northwest, Air Florida, National, the New Continental, Western,American (*If I can suffice the requirements), Pan American, Delta New Colors/old and new, new, ONA, Air New Zealand, and Eastern. Technically, only Delta and Northwest are actual operators of the MD-11; the others are simply fictional renditions of previous DC-10 operating carriers. I was able to secure repaint permission from the website and they seemed gracious in their approval. I believe that this amazing model and performing aircraft is available to those who wish to repaint, though I do not pretend to speak for the designers in Japan. I think they will grant you approval if you request it. I thank them for that permission.

If you downloaded the Continental old colors version, you might notice the lack of a repaint on the wings, showing Japan registration on the wing itself. If you copy the wings from this Delta texture file onto the Continental file for the wing, that will no longer appear.

To install, unzip the contents of this file into your FS9 aircraft file.

Then, copy or move the gauge file to your FS9 gauges file.

If you already have the main SMS MD-11 V2 in your aircraft file, simply copy the DAL texture file and make the following changes to the SMS MD-11's aircraft file:

"[fltsim.X]
title=FSP Advanced Products MD-11 Delta old colors
sim=md11
model=vc
panel=
sound=
texture=DAL
atc_id=DAL
atc_airline=Delta
atc_flight_number=591
ui_manufacturer=McDonnell-Douglas/Boeing
ui_type=McDonnell Douglas MD-11

description=Overland Co.,Ltd. Products --- McDonnell Douglas MD-11\n\nL1 L2 Cabin Door [Shift+E] then [1]\nCargo Door [Shift+E] then [2]\nL4/R4 Cabin Door Wing Fold/Extend"

Where "X" is the next sequential number of the texture files in your SMS MD-11 version 2 aircraft.cfg file.
