FSX KLM Airbus A310-203 PH-AGC "Albery Cuyp"

This freeware repaint showcases the beloved KLM Royal Dutch Airlines Airbus A310-203 (registration PH-AGC) named “Albert Cuyp,” designed specifically for the payware CLS A310-200 model. It is tailored for Microsoft Flight Simulator X and relies on the Commercial Level Simulations product, which requires a separate purchase (for instance, through a store such as SimShack). Repaint credits go to the developer, Bonnie Windsor, while the base aircraft model is courtesy of Commercial Level Simulations.

KLM’s Airbus A310 Heritage in a Custom Texture

The Airbus A310 is a short- to medium-range wide-body jetliner derived from the A300, and it served as a versatile option within KLM’s fleet for many years. The “Albert Cuyp” (registration PH-AGC) livery presented in this repaint commemorates KLM’s longstanding operational history and distinctive brand identity. This accurate rendition incorporates the airline’s characteristic color scheme along with the realistic decals and engine markings observed on real-world A310s of the era.

Installation Procedure for the Texture Package

Upon acquiring the CLS A310-200 payware product, you can install this repaint by following these steps:

1. Extract the contents of FSX KLM PH-AGC KLM into your Microsoft Flight Simulator X/SimObjects/Airplanes/CLS_A310_GE directory.
