Buffalo Airways

Featured Replies

Hi fellow simmers,

 

As I watched the series Ice Pilots for the first time recently, I am getting a bit excited about it, and I am wondering if there are some good freeware/payware aircraft for FS9 which are used in the series, such as:

 

- Lockheed electra

- Douglas DC-4

- Curtis C-46

- Canadair CL-215

 

What I also was wondering if there is a (very) good/nice Canada (mesh) scenery for FS9 for this area (North West Territories)?

I looked here at avsim and flightsim but nothing came across.

 

I can highly recommend the series if you love old descent vintage planes! 

There are Buffalo Airways repaints for DC-3's from MAAM-SIM and the the default FS9 DC-3.  I also have one for the Beech D18SVC (Schupe), although BA does not own that particular aircraft.  If one is available for a good DC-4 model please post the info here on both the plane and the repaint.  Thanks for thinking of this...its a great simming question.Screenshot61_zps66913dc5.png

At Flightsim there's a good selection ( 27 files ) .....

DC-3, DC-4, DC-6, Curtiss C-47 etc etc

 

 

By the way, several years ago someone did a Buffalo repaint for the Antonov An-12 which I lost in a HD crash. Love to get another copy if anyone can help , please.

Thanks for the help all! 

 

I already have the Buffalo repaint of the MAAM DC-3 and it works perfect. Such a beauty.

I have just registered to the Buffalo Airways Virtual Airline, and I am just waiting for my account to get activated.

 

If you have also suggestions for a good (payware) scenery for Yellowknife or Hayriver etc. please share. 

I have found a freeware scenery of both here at avsim/flightsim.com but I have read that it consists of numerous of other texture/scenery files that you need to download, and I am not very fund of that polluting my FS with that.

 

Thanks so far!
