FS2004 Belize Cargo Ltd. Douglas DC-7C

These textures depict N6354C (c/n 45111) originally delivered to BOAC as G-AOIA. From 1964 on she passed through several companies and travel clubs until 1979 when bought by Belize Air Cargo Inc. This company used the aircraft as freighter despite the absence of a freight door, mainly for meat transport. In 1981 she was seized in Colombia because of drug smuggling and pressed into service with the Fuerza Aerea Colombiana as FAC-923. Today this DC-7C is preserved in the Air Force Museum in Bogota. Textures for Tom Gibson's Douglas DC-7C. Repainted Manfred Meyer.

description=The DC-7C was a complete redesign abandoning the wing of the DC-4 allowing a further substantial increase in fuel and oil capacity. Updated engines gave slightly more power for take off and climb, but since the DC-7C was 17,000lbs heavier than the DC-7B performance was significantly reduced.
