FSX / P3D Repaint

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.

How to install this mod

FSX / P3D Repaint
  1. Extract the downloaded archive

    Use 7-Zip (free) or WinRAR to extract the ZIP to a temporary folder. Don't install while still zipped — the simulator can't read inside ZIP files.
  2. Add livery to base aircraft folder

    Place the texture folder (typically texture.{airline}) inside FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes\{base-aircraft}\.
  3. Update aircraft.cfg

    Open the base aircraft.cfg in Notepad. Add a new [fltsim.X] section per the readme.
  4. Always read the included readme

    Every mod ships with a readme.txt or README file. It tells you exactly where files go, what dependencies are needed, and any quirks specific to this add-on.
