FSX Lufthansa Douglas DC-3

Lufthansa Douglas DC-3 repaint set brings two subtly different bare-metal liveries to the default aircraft in Microsoft Flight Simulator X, inspired by the airline’s 1955–1960 C-47 fleet. Clean textures suit trainer, passenger, or freighter flights, and omit painted registrations so tail numbers can change via the built-in atc_id.

A repaint of the default Douglas DC3 including two slightly different Lufthansa liveries, based on the "bare-metal" template provided by Microsoft. Lufthansa operated a fleet of three Douglas DC-3s (C-47s) from 1955 until 1960. They were registered as D-CADE, D-CADI and D-CADO. By Mathias Wagner.

This is a repaint of the default Microsoft FSX Douglas DC-3 including 2 slightly different Lufthansa liveries, based on the 'bare-metal' template provided by Microsoft. Lufthansa operated a fleet of 3 Douglas DC-3s (C-47s) from 1955 until 1960. They were registrated as D-CADE, D-CADI and D-CADO. They were first used as trainers, then as passenger aircraft and later on converted to freighters. The Douglas DC-3 always remained a less important aircraft type for Lufthansa compared to the preferred Convair CV-340 and -440, which proved to be more suitable for the company's needs.

For easy changeability of the a/c registrations, intentionally none of them was painted on the skin. Please use the FSX built-in atc_id.
