FS2000 Laudair

Enhance your default Boeing 737 in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2000 with this freeware repaint featuring Lauda Air’s distinctive livery.

This add-on refines the door and window arrangement for more realism, reflecting the subtle design choices of the real-world aircraft.

Enthusiasts will appreciate the enhanced cockpit area transitions, which bring further immersion in the virtual skies.
