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.

This is a repaint (textures only) of Greg Pepper's and Tom Gibson's DC6B. This is a replacement for the previously uploaded TAA_DC6B.ZIP which contained the wrong textures. By Wayne Tudor.
