FSX / P3D Repaint

Cosmic Wind N21C

Cosmic Wind N21C “Minnow” brings a historically inspired racing finish to Rob Richardson’s Le Vier Cosmic Wind in Microsoft Flight Simulator X Acceleration, recreating the aircraft flown to a 1948 Goodyear Race victory by Herman “Fish” Salmon. The repaint presents authentic markings and a clean, period-correct look for the virtual cockpit and exterior, and requires the base aircraft.

Repaint — livery textures for the matching model

A repaint for Rob Richardson's Le Vier Cosmic Wind for Microsoft Flight Simulator X Acceleration. N21C was the second of three Cosmic Winds originally produced and was named 'Minnow' and initially raced by Herman 'Fish' Salmon who achieved 1st place in the 1948 Goodyear Race. N21C was reduced to components by Milton Blair as part of an attempt to create a military version. Unused parts were exported to England and it is believed some of them were used in the creation of Robin Voices G-BAER. Repaint by Peter Watkins.

    Open the base aircraft.cfg in Notepad. Add a new [fltsim.X] section per the readme.
