FS2004 Douglas R4D Skytrain VXE6

Douglas R4D Skytrain VXE6 brings a U.S. Navy Antarctic-support scheme to the default DC-3 in FS2004, reflecting the rare survivors preserved at Pensacola and Ferrymead. Crisp fuselage markings stand in for tail designations, delivering an authentic period look in the virtual cockpit and external views; requires the default DC-3.

VXE6 textures for the default DC-3. Out of all the DC-3's sent to Antarctica for the USN, two are intact at Pensacola Naval Aviation Museum, and Ferrymead Historical Park NZ. Due to the poor nature of the default design, the designations couldn't be placed on the tail so are therefore on the fuselage. Repaint by Lutz Krieg.
