FS2004 Buffalo Airways Douglas DC-3

Buffalo Airways colors bring the classic Douglas DC-3 to life with a crisp, authentic repaint designed for the default aircraft in FS2004. The package delivers textures only with a fixed registration and period-appropriate markings, enhancing exterior presentation while keeping the familiar virtual cockpit, flight model, and systems unchanged.

Installation:

Unzip the contents of this file to a temporary directory.
Copy the folder "texture.Buffalo" and paste it into your Douglas_DC3 folder. This should be located in *:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator 9\Aircraft\Douglas_DC3. The * will of course be the drive you have FS9 installed on. For example C:\Program Files\Microsoft games\etc...
Copy and paste the following section into the "aircraft.cfg" file of your Douglas_DC3 folder. (backup your original aircraft.cfg first!)

[fltsim.x] title=Douglas DC-3 Buffalo Airways sim=Douglas_DC3 model= panel= sound= texture=Buffalo kb_checklists=Douglas_DC3_check kb_reference=Douglas_DC3_ref atc_id=CGWIR atc_id_color= ui_manufacturer=Douglas ui_type=DC-3 ui_variation="Buffalo Airways" description=A livery found on one of the DC-3s flown by Buffalo Airways of Yellowknife, NT Canada.

The "x" in [fltsim.x] should be replaced with the next number that corresponds to the number of planes listed in the aircraft.cfg. For example: If this is the 5th plane listed in your aircraft.cfg, you would change [fltsim.x] to [fltsim.5].
I also suggest you disable the tail number at the aircraft selection screen in FS9 as it interferes with this particular paint scheme. I have placed a permanent registration number on the aircraft.
