FS2004 Modern Air Transport Douglas DC-7C

A repaint (textures and model only) of Tom Gibson's and Greg Pepper's Gmax DC-7C in the colors of Modern Air Transport, a U.S. charter airline, 1968. Repaint by Wayne Tudor.

It was produced using the DC-7 Paint Kit. You must have Tom and Greg's DC-7C to use these textures. The included model file is a recently modified version which more closely captures the distinctive shape of the vertical fin and has round tipped propellers.

This aircraft, N381M c/n 45546, is depicted as it appeared in the service of Modern Air Transport in 1968. This aircraft was originally delivered to KLM as PH-DSN.

description=The DC-7C was a complete redesign abandoning the wing of the DC-4 allowing a further substantial increase in fuel and oil capacity. Updated engines gave slightly more power for take off and climb, but since the DC-7C was 17,000lbs heavier than the DC-7B performance was significantly reduced.
