Repaint of payware PMDG DC6.
This repaint shows VC-118A Air Force One 53–3240 in the year 1962. This Liftmaster with c/n 44611 was built as a VIP transport and delivered to the 1254th Air Transport Wing at Washington International Airport on December 23, 1955. In July 1961 the 1254th ATW along with 53–3240 were relocated to Andrews AFB. The aircraft soon became President John F Kennedy’s favorite plane to transport him to the short landing strip at Hyannisport, Massachusetts or smaller airfields. Later in 1962 this VC-118A got the famous turquise/blue livery, which was designed by Jackie Kennedy (for the SAM 62-6000, a VC-137C). President Lyndon Johnson occasionally used this aircraft, too. Today, this aircraft is on display at the Pima Air and Space Museum in Tucson Arizona painted in the scheme Jackie Kennedy had designed.

Been inside the actual airplane at Pima Air Museum in Tucson. For those wanting it as a B, the airframe has the windows of the A (sort of) but doesn’t look like it has the cargo door on the port side. Thanks for this paint!

Hi thanks for that livery, i made a Air Force One (53-3240).ptp file so it can be imported and will show up in the PMDG Operation Center liveries list.
If you want it, just let me know where i can upload it.

In my opinion there is no need for a separate ptp file. Users have a lot of trouble with them. So, don´t publish it.

Well done sir... any chance you can make this for the DC-6B variant. thank you in advance
Zoutmax
You can do it yourself, copy the texture folder in the DC-6B folder and update the aircraft.cfg
The bitmaps are compatible, only need to rename them for the B version.
Will post a picture on that page in the user gallery.

You know, how long it needs, to do such a livery? Sorry. a first little "thank you" or rating would be helpful for a request.
