FSX Dh89a DeHavilland Dragon Rapide

Dh89a DeHavilland Dragon Rapide ZK-AKU/NZ528. A repaint for David Garwood's Dh89 (DH89FSX.ZIP). This was the last of the original three Rapides of Union Airways to open up the Cook Strait services after WWII. ZK-AKU is still airworthy and based at Ardmore, decked out as "NZ528", its RNZAF serial. Repaint by Adam Banks.

This is a repaint for David Garwood's excellent Dh89a for FSX (dh89fsx.zip).

Copy the "texture.ZKAKU" directory into your main Dh89 folder (Dh89a FSX) then amend the aircraft.cfg in the usual manner - replacing "[fltsim.xx]" with your last number +1.
