This repaint package showcases a refined VIP variant of the Douglas C-9 for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004, meticulously crafted by Henry William. It provides the look of a dedicated executive transport while maintaining the authentic performance of the DC-9 series. Designed to integrate seamlessly with the SGA DC9-30 model, it reflects both special-use military styling and the hallmark reliability that made the DC-9 family well-known among short-haul operators worldwide.
VIP Configuration and Historical Context
The Douglas C-9 represents a modification of the standard DC-9 airframe, often employed for governmental or specialized operations such as personnel or executive transport. Its compact fuselage length and dual turbofan configuration facilitate efficient regional and mid-range flights. This repaint highlights an exclusive VIP rendition, featuring unique markings and a distinctive overall paint scheme. While the real C-9 served extensively in varied environments, this particular model offers a tailored experience that mirrors a high-end executive layout commonly associated with official missions or specialized assignments.

Essential Additional Files
This repaint is built for the freeware SGA DC9-30 base package (file name: SGA930.zip
) and therefore requires that original model before installation. The flight dynamics and visual accuracy provide a realistic simulation of the DC-9’s overall performance envelope. Additionally, it is crucial to confirm that your aircraft folder structure follows standard naming conventions to ensure that the game recognizes this texture correctly.
Step-by-Step Integration
- Obtain and install the SGA DC9-30 base kit (
SGA930.zip
), then verify that it functions correctly within your simulator. - Locate and open the
Aircraft.cfg
file in the correct aircraft folder using a text editor. This file dictates the configurations for all repaints. - Insert the following [fltsim.X] section below the existing fltsim entries (make sure to replace “X” with the appropriate sequential number):
[fltsim.X]

- Save your changes to the configuration file and close it.
- Copy the newly provided “texture.c9” folder and place it in the same directory as the other SGA DC9-30 textures.
- Launch your flight simulator and confirm that the VIP Douglas C-9 repaint by Henry William appears as an available variant.
Developer Credits and Final Notes
Henry William designed these VIP textures to accentuate the executive nature of the C-9 airframe, while retaining compatibility with the SGA DC-9 platform. Using them in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 will offer a glimpse into the practical, high-level transportation configuration that the C-9 is known for. Remember that you must already have the proper freeware base model from Fly Away Simulation to enjoy this repaint. With everything installed, it is straightforward to load up the aircraft, take to the skies, and experience the specialized VIP environment that Henry William has meticulously rendered.
