FSX Douglas C-47 NASARR Trainer

Douglas C-47 NASARR Trainer brings a unique Starfighter-era twist to the classic Skytrain in Microsoft Flight Simulator X, featuring an F-104G-style nose used for radar and navigation instruction. The package includes an authentic German Air Force 14+10 paint and matching model updates, and requires the Douglas C-47 V2 Skytrain base pack.

The Douglas C47 NASARR Trainers were ordinary Skytrains fitted with F-104G noses in order to act as navigational school rooms for budding Starfighter pilots (NASARR = North American Radar and Ranging). Among the air forces using them in this function was the German Air Force, which had five (called Nasenbaer/coati), the Canadian Air Force, which had two (called Pinocchio), and the Belgian Air Force. The paint included represents GAF 14+10. This plane was modified to NASARR Trainer status in 1964 and withdrawn from use in 1973. FSX model and GAF paint by Manfred Jahn. Previous installation of C-47 V2 Skytrain (DOUGLAS_C-47_V2.ZIP) required.
