This repaint recreates the distinctive Adria Airways livery for the default Boeing 737-800 in Microsoft Flight Simulator X, bringing the Slovenian carrier’s branding onto one of the most recognized twinjet airliners in the virtual skies. It has been meticulously developed by Felix Prüfer and requires the base freeware model, which is not included but can be found in the Fly Away Simulation library.
Livery Characteristics and Airline Background
Adria Airways, formerly Slovenia’s flag carrier, was prominent in connecting central European air routes with destinations across Europe. This repaint accurately reflects the real-world color scheme seen on the airline’s fleet, including its understated tail markings and stylized titles across the fuselage. The Boeing 737-800 itself is a short- to medium-range commercial aircraft known for its efficient wing design and high-quality performance in various flight conditions, making it a popular choice for both real airlines and flight simulation enthusiasts.
Key Installation Steps
- Locate your SimObjects/ Airplanes/ B737_800 folder in Microsoft Flight Simulator X. Extract and place the Texture.adria directory inside the B737_800 folder alongside other texture sets.
- Open the aircraft.cfg file, then scroll to the last [fltsim.x] entry. Below that, add a new [fltsim.x] entry (incrementing the number). Ensure all parameters match the snippet below but adjust the fltsim number accordingly:
[fltsim.x] title=Boeing 737-800 Adria Airways sim=Boeing737-800 model= panel= sound= texture=adria kb_checklists=Boeing737-800_check kb_reference=Boeing737-800_ref atc_id= atc_airline=Adria Airways atc_flight_number=2702 ui_manufacturer=Boeing ui_type=737-800 ui_variation=Adria Airways ui_typerole=Kommerzielles Linienflugzeug ui_createdby=Felix Prüfer description=The 737 remains one of the foremost jetliners in commercial aviation history. Initially, it nearly faced production cancellation due to sparse orders, but strong demand over the following decades secured its place as the best-selling narrow-body aircraft to date.
- Save and close the aircraft.cfg file. Your new livery should be available in the aircraft selection menu.
- Load up your chosen flight parameters, and enjoy the Adria Airways repaint in FSX.
Technical Notes and Developer Credit
This repaint focuses on precise alignment of fuselage graphics, realistic color matching, and accurate window configurations to match the operator’s real fleet. Careful attention was paid to logos, door outlines, and other critical details. Felix Prüfer has ensured that the repaint meets a high standard of authenticity while blending seamlessly with default flight deck features found in the 737-800.
Aircraft Model and Real-World Performance
The default 737-800 model supplied with Microsoft Flight Simulator X simulates typical operational parameters such as flight envelope, fuel system complexities, and engine thrust capabilities. By integrating the Adria Airways skin, virtual pilots are able to replicate short- and medium-haul routes the real airline operated across Europe, taking advantage of the 737-800’s reputable reliability and cost efficiency.
