Immerse yourself in the vintage charm of the Douglas DC-3 with this Moormanair repaint, carefully crafted by Rory Thomson. These files are designed for use in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 with either the default DC-3 or the specialized long-range C-47 model by Dave Bitzer and Mark Beaumont. You will need the appropriate base package from the Fly Away Simulation library to complete your installation. The end result is a historical tribute to Moormanair’s livery, capturing the unique paintwork and operational nuances of this reliable propliner.
Classic DC-3 Adapted for Moormanair Service
The Douglas DC-3, first introduced in the mid-1930s, revolutionized commercial aviation by offering greater range and durability. In its various configurations throughout history, this robust airframe supported both passenger and cargo operations across the globe. Moormanair, recognized for its dependable transport services, employed the DC-3 to fulfill regional routes with consistent performance. This particular texture set ensures a realistic depiction of the airline’s visual identity, illuminating the fuselage, tail fin, and wings with rich authenticity.
Interior and exterior details match the Moormanair era.
How to Incorporate These Textures
- Duplicate your existing “DC3” folder and rename the texture folder inside it to texture.MH. Then, add all the files from this repaint package into that new texture.MH directory, overwriting as necessary.
- Open your aircraft’s configuration file (aircraft.cfg) and insert the following lines. Replace XX with the next available number in your sequence:
[fltsim.XX]
title=Douglas C-47 Moormanair
sim=DC3_RR3 // Was Douglas_DC3
model=
panel=
sound=
texture=MH
kb_checklists=Douglas_DC3_check
kb_reference=Douglas_DC3_ref
atc_id_enable=0
atc_id=108801
atc_airline=Moormanair
atc_parking_types=CARGO
atc_parking_code=COD
ui_manufacturer=Douglas
ui_type="C-47"
ui_variation="Moormanair"
Recommended Usage Notes
Be sure to verify that you have installed the correct base model by Dave Bitzer and Mark Beaumont if you prefer the enhanced C-47 variant. These updated flight dynamics and extra range capabilities reflect realistic performance metrics and fuel consumption data found in actual DC-3 aircraft. Lastly, ensure you double-check any existing panel, sound, or model entries to maintain compatibility with your selected aircraft setup.
