This freeware repaint offers the Air France livery for the Project Open Sky CRJ-200. It showcases detailed exterior textures saved in 32-bit format without Mip-Maps and is intended for Microsoft Flight Simulator X flyers seeking an authentic short-haul regional jet experience. Created by the dedicated author, Sebastian Szucs, and based on the community-favorite Project Open Sky model, this package delivers a recognizable Air France design for commuter operations. Please note that the original Project Open Sky CRJ-200 base model is required and is not included here.

Overview of the CRJ-200 and Its Air France Style

The CRJ-200 (Canadair Regional Jet 200) is a compact aircraft frequently used for regional routes. Air France historically employed such jets for cross-country and European destinations where efficiency and quick turnaround times were crucial. This repaint accurately reflects the airline’s branding, which many enthusiasts will recognize as they journey through virtual French airspace.

Technical Notes

  • Model Compatibility: Crafted for the Project Open Sky CRJ-200. Ensure the base model is already installed.
  • Texture Details: High-resolution 32-bit textures are provided, featuring the airline’s stripes and tail logo. The lack of Mip-Maps helps preserve sharpness.
  • Paintkit Limitations: This repaint adapts the original paintkit (originally created for an older simulator version), so subtle refinements were applied where possible.

Installation Guide

  1. Extract the “texture.XXX” folder into the existing Project Open Sky CRJ-200 directory within the simulator’s main aircraft folder.
  2. Open the accompanying Aircraft.cfg file snippet provided and copy its contents into the CRJ-200’s Aircraft.cfg.
  3. Update the [fltsim.X] index to the next available number in sequential order.
  4. Confirm that the model= and sim= lines match the CRJ-200 model folders and the associated “.air” file.
  5. Launch the simulator and select the Air France CRJ-200 from your aircraft menu.

This process will insert the new repaint while retaining any existing ones. If there are any issues matching the model or flight dynamics, double-check the file paths and naming conventions.

Final Notes

This package serves those who appreciate the CRJ-200’s role in short-range passenger transport, especially under the Air France banner. It is best enjoyed when accommodating realistic flight plans around regional airports. Once again, many thanks to Project Open Sky for creating the original model and to Sebastian Szucs for finalizing the textures in this repaint. Simply load the aircraft, plan a domestic or European route, and experience the scenery from a regional jet’s vantage point. Enjoy technical and stable flights with this faithful visual enhancement.
