PBY #05045 of Commander Air South Pacific

Repaint of Aerosoft PBY

PBY-5A

Repaint by Tom Stovall for the Aerosoft PBY PBY-5A, using the Aerosoft PBY paint kit developed by the Aerosoft team. You must have purchased the Aerosoft PBY to use these textures. This PBY was number 05045 of Commander Air South Pacific. This aircraft belonged to Admiral John S. McCain and was flown by Lt. W.S. Sampson August 12, 1942 to Henderson Field, Guadacanal. This was the first aircraft to land at Henderson. The Marines had almost taken the runway when the Catalina arrived with much needed ammunition and supplies. Next morning, early she took off with two wounded Marines. This aircraft deserves a place of honor.

Installation:

Copy the following lines into your Aerosoft_PBY-5A_Mil aircraft .cfg file changing the [fltsim.x] to the appropriate next number in line. Copy the texture.comairsopac folder into your Aerosoft_PBY-5A_Mil folder.
