FS2004 Avensa Convair CV-580 YV-17C

Avensa’s 1980s Convair CV-580 registration YV-17C brings a classic Venezuelan turboprop airliner look to FS2004, capturing the carrier’s long-running passenger service. The repaint matches the original CV-580 package with period markings and airline identity, and requires Glen Hall’s Convair 580 model for Sierra Pacific Airlines.
