FS2004 Danish Douglas DC-3 "VIP Colours"

Royal Danish Air Force DC-3 K-681 in 1973 “VIP colours” brings a distinctive Scandinavian transport look to the default Douglas C-47, with bespoke pilot and propeller textures for added authenticity. Built for FS2004, it requires the stock DC-3 and focuses purely on high-quality exterior textures inspired by period reference.

Just put the folder texture.K-681 into the folder of your default DC-3 and add the following lines to the aircraft.cfg, replacing the X in [fltsim.X] with the next vacant number in your collection:

[fltsim.X] title=Douglas DC-3 K-681 sim=Douglas_DC3 visual_damage=1 model= panel= sound= texture=K-681 kb_checklists=Douglas_DC3_check kb_reference=Douglas_DC3_ref atc_id= ui_manufacturer=Douglas ui_type="C-47" ui_variation="K-681" description="The Royal Danish Air Force had two Dakotas painted in "VIP colors". The K-681 was in the RDAF from 1953 till 1980, and is now displayed at the Danish Technical Museum in Elsinore. Repaint of the default DC-3 by Kim Dahl using the DC-3 repaint kit by Mark Beaumont. November 2003."

That should be just about it. Start your FS2004 and find K-681 in the Douglas C-47 section.

Have a nice flight!
