FSX COTAM Douglas DC-8

COTAM Douglas DC-8 textures bring French Air Force transport character to the Flight1 DC-8 in Microsoft Flight Simulator X, featuring authentic markings and registration for a believable period look. The repaint by Martial Feron refreshes exterior visuals for airline-style operations and military support flights, and requires the payware Flight1 DC-8 model.
