FS2004 Challenge Air Transport Douglas DC-6A

Challenge Air Transport Douglas DC-6A livery brings a period-correct cargo hauler look to FS2004, matching the aircraft’s reinforced freighter role with authentic markings and registration details. Crisp external textures complement the classic Douglas lines and prop animation, and it requires the CalClassic DC-6A model by Greg Pepper and Tom Gibson.
