A repaint of the default Ford Trimotor in Pan American livery. Textures only. By Ed Knapp.

It is hard to accurately paint this plane. Many of the textures are mirrored. The "Pan American Airways System" logo should be under the windows, but that is impossible. This is a very simple repaint, but the original was not very fancy. I had only one research photo to work from so I did the best I could.

Installation:

  • Unzip the contents of this file to a temporary directory.
  • Copy the folder "texture.panam" to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator 9\Aircraft\Ford_Trimotor.
  • Copy the following text into your aircraft.cfg file located here C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator 9\Aircraft\Ford_Trimotor.

[fltsim.x]

sim=Ford_Trimotor

kb_checklists=Ford_Trimotor_check
kb_reference=Ford_Trimotor_ref

description="Nicknamed the "Tin Goose," the Ford 4-AT Tri-Motor pioneered early airline and air transport routes. In 1925, the Ford Motor Company bought the Stout Metal Plane Company to gain rights to the Tri-Motor design. In all, 198 Ford Tri-Motors were built. During its years of regular service in the late 1920s and early 1930s, the Ford Tri-Motor helped popularize commercial flight and promote the safety of flying to travelers."

Replace the 'x' where you see [fltsim.x] with the number this aircraft represents. If it is your third aircraft it would be [fltsim.3].
