This is a repaint (textures and model only) of Greg Pepper's and Tom Gibson's CV-240. Requires 240WAL.ZIP. This aircraft represents Trans-Australia VH-TAO as it appeared in service circa 1954. This is an update and correction to my previous release. It includes the correct model with the ventral airstair. It also displays a correct nose logo which was not available at the time of the earlier release. This is a complete replacement for the previous release. Repaint by Wayne Tudor.
