FSX Northwest Airlines Boeing 737-800

Northwest Airlines colors bring a classic US carrier look to the default Boeing 737-800, with crisp exterior textures that suit close-up ramp views and in-flight screenshots. Designed for Microsoft Flight Simulator X, this repaint requires the stock 737-800 and adds authentic registration and airline details for a convincing fleet-style presentation.
