FSX Swissair-Cargo Cessna 208

Swissair-Cargo livery for the default Cessna 208 Caravan brings an imaginary freight look with crisp 2048×2048 DDS textures and a subtly more transparent propeller for cleaner visuals in Flight Simulator X. The repaint integrates seamlessly into the aircraft selection menu while preserving the stock flight model and virtual cockpit.

Swissair-Cargo Cessna 208. An imaginary repaint for the default Cessna 208 Caravan. A particular variation is that the DDS file is in 2048 x 2048 resolution (so it is 4 MB in place of the original 1 MB). The propeller is a little bit more transparent. By Bernhard Lechner.

How to install this mod

FSX / P3D aircraft
  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. Copy aircraft files into SimObjects

    Place the aircraft folder inside FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes\. The folder must contain an aircraft.cfg file. Effects go into FSX\Effects\; gauges go into FSX\Gauges\.
  3. Verify in FSX

    Launch FSX, go to Free Flight → Select Aircraft and find your new aircraft under its manufacturer.
  4. Always read the included readme

    Every mod ships with a readme.txt or README file. It tells you exactly where files go, what dependencies are needed, and any quirks specific to this add-on.

    This download is missing the texture.cfg file for fallbacks. May cause cockpit panel blackout.
