FSX / P3D Repaint for Payware Model

FSX Trans World Airlines Douglas DC-9-51 N414EA

Trans World Airlines DC-9-51 livery N414EA recreates the airline’s crisp 1980s scheme with authentic markings and era-appropriate detailing for a convincing classic jetliner look in FSX. It installs as a repaint texture set and requires the payware Sky Simulations DC-9-51 base aircraft.
