FS2004 Eastern Airlines Douglas DC-7B N823D

Eastern Airlines Douglas DC-7B N823D textures recreate the circa-1961 livery used before the later “hockey stick” era, bringing period-correct markings to the classic propliner. Designed for FS2004, the repaint pairs with Tom Gibson’s DC-7B model and enhances ramp presence with accurate registration and airline details.

Douglas DC-7B, circa 1961. Eastern operated a fleet of 49 DC-7Bs from 1955 to 1965 (one was lost on a delivery flight from the factory). This scheme was used from 1961 to 1964 when it was replaced with the familiar "hockey stick" colors. Textures only. Model by Tom Gibson. EAL repaint by Gary Harper.
