Aerorepublica Boeing 737-400

This repaint brings Aerorepublica’s recognizable exterior to the default Boeing 737-400 in Microsoft Flight Simulator X. Originally crafted by Mauricio Ibarra Londono, this freeware add-on modifies only the visual appearance and does not include the base model. The 737-400, a member of Boeing’s distinguished classic 737 series, has served regional operators worldwide for short-to-medium-range routes; this livery updates its look with Aerorepublica’s contemporary branding while retaining every operational detail of the default design.

Enhanced Visuals and Livery Specifics

This rendition of Aerorepublica highlights the airline’s color scheme across the fuselage and tailfin, accurately reflecting the real-world fleet markings used for passenger service. The aircraft’s exterior texturing has been meticulously aligned to ensure sharp transitions between color variations. Although based on a standard layout, the livery reflects Aerorepublica’s original palette and branding, which have strong ties to regional aviation markets in Central and South America.

Additional Notes

This repaint operates effectively in Microsoft Flight Simulator X and references the default aircraft geometry. Since it is a visual modification only, the base Boeing 737-400 model must be sourced from the Fly Away Simulation freeware library. All textures and configuration data comply with the original flight model, preserving the aircraft’s functional systems and cockpit layout. Reference your simulator’s documentation if any configuration conflicts occur, and be certain to verify each file path to ensure proper installation.
