AI American Airlines Boeing 787-8

American Airlines Boeing 787-8 AI repaint delivers a faithful Dreamliner livery that blends naturally into scheduled traffic, adding convincing long-haul movements and crisp ramp visuals. Built for Flight Simulator X (FSX), it requires the separate CamSim AI 787-8 base model, with textures tuned for smooth performance and believable airline presence.

This repaint package features an authentic American carrier livery for the Boeing 787-8 (nicknamed the Dreamliner), created specifically for AI traffic. These textures have been developed by Camil Valiquette and must be paired with the separate CamSim AI base model to function. Once installed, each aircraft will seamlessly integrate into FSX’s AI system, visually representing American’s long-haul fleet in your simulator sky. Note that the essential CamSim package (CAMSIM788AI_X.ZIP) is available in the Fly Away Simulation mod library and is not included in this download.

Key Mod Characteristics

Compatibility: Designed for Flight Simulator X (FSX).
Developer Recognition: Model design and paint by Camil Valiquette, from CamSim.
Purpose: AI traffic enhancement for a more dynamic environment.
Real-World Reference: The Boeing 787-8 is a wide-body jetliner recognized for its advanced composite structures, efficient turbofan engines, and enhanced passenger comfort.

Installation Steps

  1. Extract and merge the included texture folder into your existing CamSim AI Boeing 787-8 base model folder.
  2. Locate your aircraft.cfg file in the same base model directory, then append the following entry (remember to adjust [fltsim.x] to the next available number):

[fltsim.x]
title=Boeing 787-8 v5 AI American
sim=787-8
model=787-8 ai v5
panel=
sound=
texture=aa
kb_checklists=
kb_reference=
atc_id=xx
atc_airline=xxx

ui_type="Boeing 787-8 V5 AI"
ui_variation="AI American"
ui_typerole="Commercial Airliner"
ui_createdby="CamSim"
description="Boeing AI Boeing 787-8 Version 5."

Configuration Notes

Once you have updated the aircraft configuration, ensure all file paths are correct. Then launch FSX to confirm that the American insignia is correctly applied. This repaint only includes the livery textures, so the original model is mandatory for proper functionality.

Performance in Windows 7

On certain systems running Windows 7, you may notice missing elements during dawn or dusk. If this occurs, open FSX’s Options > Settings > Display menu and disable “Preview DirectX 10,” which usually resolves the transparency issue.

How to install this mod

FSX / P3D aircraft
  1. Extract the downloaded archive

    Use 7-Zip (free) or WinRAR to extract the ZIP to a temporary folder. Don't install while still zipped — the simulator can't read inside ZIP files.
  2. Copy aircraft files into SimObjects

    Place the aircraft folder inside FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes\. The folder must contain an aircraft.cfg file. Effects go into FSX\Effects\; gauges go into FSX\Gauges\.
  3. Verify in FSX

    Launch FSX, go to Free Flight → Select Aircraft and find your new aircraft under its manufacturer.
  4. Always read the included readme

    Every mod ships with a readme.txt or README file. It tells you exactly where files go, what dependencies are needed, and any quirks specific to this add-on.
