FSX / P3D Repaint

FSX Orbit Douglas DC-10

Orbit Airlines livery brings a clean, period-appropriate look to Tom Ruth’s DC-10 Version 2, with crisp exterior textures that suit classic widebody airline operations in Microsoft Flight Simulator X. The package requires TOMDC10.ZIP and is designed for the DC-10-30, complementing the model’s updated gear, interior, and FSX-style animations.
