This repaint showcases a detailed KLM Royal Dutch Airlines Airbus A330-200 texture set created especially for Thomas Ruth’s freeware base model. Designed for Microsoft Flight Simulator X, it highlights the airline’s signature color scheme and includes accurate markings that reflect KLM’s real-world operations.

Refined Livery Details

The livery, meticulously crafted by Mark McCorquodale, replicates the precise curved lines, fuselage stripes, and tail graphics emblematic of KLM Royal Dutch Airlines. KLM, recognized as one of the oldest scheduled carriers, often operates the Airbus A330-200 on intercontinental routes, relying on its efficient range and wide-body capacity. This repaint captures the aviation heritage behind KLM’s fleet while maintaining fidelity with the actual aircraft.

Aircraft Model Compatibility

These textures integrate seamlessly with Thomas Ruth’s A330-200 freeware model (file name TOMA332B.ZIP), requiring that base package before installation. The repaint accommodates key A330-200 design attributes, including the Trent engine configuration, wing geometry, and characteristic nose shape. By aligning carefully with Thomas Ruth’s original geometry, the repaint ensures consistent visual quality in-game.

Essential Installation Steps

  1. Place the Texture.KLM folder into your simulator’s aircraft directory, typically found at:
    ...[Your FSX Folder]/SimObjects/Airplanes/TOM_A330-200
  2. Open the aircraft.cfg file in that same folder, then insert the following entry just below the last [fltsim.x] section. Make sure to adjust [fltsim.xx] to the next number (for instance, [fltsim.9]):
[fltsim.xx]
title=KLM A330-200
sim=TomA332
model=RR
panel=330
sound=
texture=KLM
kb_checklists=
kb_reference=
atc_id=PH-AOB
atc_airline=KLM
atc_flight_number=1123
atc_parking_types=GATE, RAMP, CARGO
atc_parking_code=
atc_heavy=1
ui_manufacturer=Airbus
ui_typerole=Commercial Airliner
ui_createdby=Tom
ui_type=A330-200
ui_variation=KLM
  1. Launch Microsoft Flight Simulator X, select the Airbus A330-200 with the KLM repaint, and enjoy the new livery in your virtual skies.

Credit and Technical Notes

This repaint is exclusively the work of Mark McCorquodale, reflecting his dedication to bringing authentic airline liveries to the simulation community. Since it only includes the textures, you will need to obtain the freeware base model of the A330-200 first. Look for that resource in the Fly Away Simulation add-on library where Thomas Ruth’s aircraft files are available.

In practice, KLM’s Airbus A330-200 is renowned for its twin-aisle comfort, medium-to-long range efficiency, and advanced avionics. Incorporating these elements into a simulated environment breathes new realism into any flight schedule, whether replicating routine transatlantic journeys or shorter European hops.
