File Description:
FSX/FS2004 DDA Douglas C-54A-DC ZS-IPR. This aircraft was built a C-54A-5-DO Skymaster at Santa Monica, CA, for the USAAF. After WW2 struck off and converted to DC-4 standard. Having served various civil and military operators in the USA, Philippines, Thailand, Botswana, South Africa and Namibia from 1946 till 1981, the C-54A was bought by the South African Air Force on 23 April 1981 as 6906 in order to replace DC-4 6903. In 6906 was sold 1995 to Aero Air (Pty) Ltd. as ZS-IPR. Then bought in November 1996
by the Dutch Dakota Association for spares for its DC-4 PH-DDS. At that time it was the 3rd oldest airworthy C-54/DC-4. The white and blue 'livery' was only meant to ferry the aircraft safely over the troubled continent of Africa. It was kind of improvisation as at the moment the DDA people arrived in South Africa to collect the plane, it was still in the camouflage colours
of South Africa which isn't very practical if you have to fly across warzones. On 4 June 1997 this 'bunch of spares flying in perfect formation' arrived at Schiphol, where it was stored and dismantled. Since PH-DDS returned to South Africa, the C-54A is on display from 2003 as NGAT's
NL-316 at the Aviodrome, Lelystad. These are textures only. You will require Jens B. Kristensen's great Douglas DC-4 & C-54 (dc4_v21.zip) and Douglas DC-4 and C-54 freighters V2.1 (dc4cgv21.zip). Original textures by Jens B. Kristensen. Repaints by Maarten Brouwer.

(ONLY TESTED IN FSX: STEAM EDITION)
This was requested by Ney Costa on the Official Project Airbus Facebook Group.
This was my attempt on making my own lightmaps for the logo lights, and honestly, it came out better than I expected! I used Kevin Chung's photos of 9N-ALV from Flickr to copy it.
I also changed the wing inspection lights from the Incandescent Halogen Lightbulbs to the Light Emitting Diode, or LED Lightbulbs to match the aircraft.
A320s from the 2010s and 2020s usually arrive with these updated lights. Not just the NEO, LR and XLR planes but also the normal CEO planes as well.
My first attempt on doing the LED Wing Inspection Lightbulbs were bad as I usually just copy and paste them from A321 photos from Flickr, I needed them for my Royal Air Philippines NNJT A321PCF Livery Pack, which I will try to soon complete as it will include RP-C9867, RP-C9866, and RP-C9869.
So, my second attempt on finding photos was with this livery, and it just looks much better than the 2nd attempt. I even included both the Incandescent Lights and LED Lights in the Decal just in case someone wants to use it. It is from Kevin Chung's photos, which I greatly appreciated!!!
Another thing is that this is my 2nd attempt on doing the livery, as my first was actually done all the way back in late 2023 / early 2024. But unfortunately, while it was completed, it was from my old laptop, which is now broken. A lot of those other liveries that I made but never released were there as well. I could try re-creating them though, like the Sun Country A320 Fictional Livery I made months ago when I also originally did it back in 2024.
