FSX USAAF Douglas DC-3 VIP Transport

USAAF VIP transport livery brings a mid-1940s C-47 “Skytrain” look to the default Douglas DC-3, with era-correct markings and a clean military finish that stands out on ramps and in the virtual cockpit. Designed for FSX, it requires the default DC-3 model and integrates as an additional aircraft variation.
