Request didn´t fit the DC-8-50 passenger version, removed for this reason.

 

*edit 22.04.*

Here´s the Air Bahama DC-8.

 

The Original was a series 63 - but as we don´t have aSeries 63 i did the repaint to the Series 50.

 

Have fun!

A note to painters:

The paint kit contains a file called VC_general.dds.  It got in there by mistake and you should take it out before you upload your texture packages.  It's likely an older version of the file in the main texture folder. 

And if you download a texture pack, just take it out.

I'd love to see a repaint of Viasa!

Another one: Swissair Douglas DC-8 (HB-IDD)

Thank you for the Swissair and the Eastern liveries.

May I please ask for three french airlines now defunct all flew the DC8 - 33 up to 70:

• Transports Aériens Intercontinentaux (TAI) serving Asia, Pacific from Paris
• Union Aeromaritime de Transports (UAT) serving Africa from Paris
• Union de Transports Aériens (UTA) merger of both above (the liveriy are very similar to UAT but for one colour green instead of yellow). Not particularly interested by the latest modern UTA livery...

 

All liveries available on Internet but I cannot post links.

Thank you

Gudday,

 

Just posted my first repaint for the '8'. I think she looks gorgeous in the Air New Zealand livery.

 

I noted what appears to be a minor mapping issue at the base of the tail on the left hand side. Be interested to hear if the developer has found it. The liveries provided don't show it up so I'm guessing not.

 

Cheers.

Jon,

 

       Its great to see your repaints coming for this aircraft(along with the others that sporadically show up on avsim from time to time...)

 

I have fond memories of ARNZX and your endless supply of repaints.

Thanks for the Eastern download!Great stuff!

The next one: Icelandair Douglas DC-8 (TF-FLB)

This is not a livery I would have usually done. But as you seem to like it a lot, I've done it for you. I hope you like it

This man is a machine!  I certainly can't crank them out at this pace.

Thanks so much Tim...

Made my day..

 

I like it due to patriotic reasons.. My parents flew in it

... Plus it has some turbulent history...

 

You are a good man.

 

 

 

Here is a Viasa dc 8 -53 in a photogragh from 1971:

I'm not sure which specific variants of the DC-8 they operated, but I'd be interested in seeing a Pan Am livery.

They had some of the pre-turbofan ones, I guess they would be 30 or 40 series. They also leased a couple of 62s.  No 50 series, but maybe someone will do a "what if" texture.  If they had flown the 50 series I would definitely have made a default one. 

Would be nice to have this livery:

I know the engines and the fuselage is a bit different, especially the inlets on the nose, but as kind of fictional livery it would be OK

Haha! Yes, it was good timing that the DC-8 was released the week where I have some spare time 

 

Today's livery: Japan Air Lines Douglas DC-8 (JA8007)
