FS2004 Trans Australia Airlines DC-6B

Trans Australia Airlines DC-6B VH-INU livery brings a circa-1963 look to Douglas’s classic piston airliner, reflecting its Ansett lease era with period-correct markings and finish. Built for FS2004, it supplies textures only and requires Greg Pepper and Tom Gibson’s DC-6B base model, replacing an earlier incorrect set.
