SaltSpring Air’s DHC-2 Beaver repaint brings aircraft C-GVPB (cn 1551) to life with authentic textures for coastal hops between Victoria, Vancouver, Salt Spring Island, and the Gulf Islands. Designed for the default DeHavilland Beaver in Microsoft Flight Simulator X, it requires the stock DHC-2 model and keeps the virtual cockpit intact.
