FS2004/FSX SAAF 44 Sqn DC-4 Skymaster, #6902 - SAAF Museum AFB Swartkop

Hello there again guys

I have painted yet another SAAF aircraft on email request to fill the virtual skies, I hope you are not tired yet of SAAF repaints hehe....

I have made a repaint for the the Douglas DC-4 & C-54 model by Jens B. Kristensen in the colours of a SAAF DC-4 Skymaster, #6902 - SAAF Museum AFB Swartkop of 44 Sqn. During the border war the SAAF DC-4 Skymaster was painted in a camo scheme comprised of dark earth and olive drab without any national insignia.While in SAAF service the Skymaster was widely used as a passenger and VIP transport aircraft. Skymaster #6902 can be seen at the SAAF Museum at AFB Swartkop in the Border War Camo scheme with national insignia as a static display.

The textures has some dirt and weathering on it to simulate use of the aircraft. I have painted and uploaded also another SAAF DC-4 Skymaster #6904 - Border War (No national insignia worn) of 44 Sqn but just have not shown the screenshots here.

A search at http://www.flightsim.com or http://www.avsim.com must be done for the file dc4_v21.zip to obtain the freeware DC-4 Skymaster from Jens B. Kristensen.

I have uploaded the repaint at http://www.flightsim.com so be sure to check it out!

I have included a few screenshots below to show you how it looks...
