FS2004 Capital Airlines Douglas DC-3

Capital Airlines Douglas DC-3 repaint brings classic postwar U.S. regional service to the default aircraft in FS2004, with crisp period-correct markings and a clean, weathered finish suited to vintage routes. Textures only, it requires the stock Douglas DC-3 and integrates seamlessly into the aircraft selection menu.

Textures only for the default DC3 in Capital Airlines livery. Capital was a regional airline operating in the central/eastern portion of the USA. Capital later was merged with United Airlines. By Dale De Luca.

I should point out that this repaint is not totally accurate. The default DC3 does not have both right and left wing bmps nor does it have both right and left side rudder bmps therefore it is not possible to add serial numbers or airline logo on the wings or rudder. The livery is accurate in other respects. I hope you enjoy my repaint.
