FSX / P3D Repaint for Payware Model

FSX Swissair Ford Tri-Motor

Swissair-inspired Ford Tri-Motor repaint brings classic airline styling to the Cr1-Software aircraft in FSX, with period-appropriate markings and a clean, cohesive exterior finish built from the original paintkit. The livery is intentionally fictional for Swiss service and requires the Cr1-Software.Ltd Ford Tri-Motor base model.

How to install this mod

FSX / P3D Repaint for Payware Model

  1. Extract the downloaded archive

    Use 7-Zip (free) or WinRAR to extract the ZIP to a temporary folder. Don't install while still zipped — the simulator can't read inside ZIP files.

  2. Add livery to base aircraft folder

    Place the texture folder (typically texture.{airline}) inside FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes\{base-aircraft}\.

  3. Update aircraft.cfg

    Open the base aircraft.cfg in Notepad. Add a new [fltsim.X] section per the readme.

  4. Always read the included readme
