Fairchild 24R Ranger

Civil Air Patrol colors bring the Fairchild 24R Ranger to life with authentic markings, a clean exterior finish, and period-correct presentation that suits classic general aviation flying. Compatible with FSX and Prepar3D, it requires the Lionheart Creations Fairchild 24 Series and includes matching registration details for a cohesive in-sim identity.

Simply drop this texture folder into the main Fairchild 24R folder in the Airplanes folder in FSX or Prepar3D.
Copy the below Registry Blocks and add them to the 'aircraft.cfg' file.
Open the 'aircraft.cfg' file with Windows Notepad
On the top of all the input is the Registry Blocks. Go to the last Registry Block and paste this new one in (Control - V to paste).
When pasted in, make sure the series of numbers are redone to match yours 'in order'. If you do not, the texture will not show up. Example, if the last one was 13, the new one will be 14, etc. Change both the top and second top sentence numbers of the 'new' Registry pack.
