Possible to see correct liveries for airliners?

Featured Replies

Is is possible to see the real life liveries for airline traffic?  I have live traffic on, and see the planes, but the paint schemes just seem to be generic.

I think the simple answer would be: no.

MSFS 2024. Primary Planes: Black Square TBM850, Duke, Baron, Caravan; A2A Comanche; FSReborn Phenom; Fexix A321; PMDG 737-7, 777: Utilities: Active Sky (Passive Mode); BATC, FSLTL.

Not without using a traffic add-on. FSLTL is the simplest free offering and easy to use. AIG is another option, but much more involved to set up. You can use both together if you wish. There is Aerosoft Simple Traffic (payware) as well.

RAM: Corsair Vengeance DDR4 64Gb (4x16GB) 3600 MHz; GPU:  MSI Radeon RX 5700XT [8GB] 
SSD:  Corsair Force MP510 (for OS);  2x 1TB & 1x 2TB Sabrent Rocket Nvme PCIe 4.0 (one for sim, two for addons)
HDD:  Seagate 3TB (Data); Seagate 1TB (Programs), ASUS TUF Gaming VG32VQ1B Curved 31.5" monitor, 1440p, 38Mbs ethernet

OK, thanks.  Guess it is what it is for now.  I had liveries in Xplane, but I think I may have been using an addon for that, too.

Give FSLTL a go, it really is simple to set up and use, plus it gives you genuine live traffic (albeit with a bit of a delay from real time) and replaces not only the liveries but those awful pointed-nose airliners!

Companies like Asobo and Microsft will probably need formal permission from each individual airline before they can use their livery. I am quite surprised this isn't a problem for Aerosoft or Just Flight.

Apparently, both are licenced or at least have permission.

Rob (but call me Bob or Rob, I don't mind).

I like to trick airline passengers into thinking I have my own swimming pool in my back yard by painting a large blue rectangle on my patio.

Yes you can in PSXT ÷ Real Traffic. Together with the AIG models/liveries you will see the exact paint. It even knows the difference between the normal company livery and special ones such as from the consortium they are part of (SkyTeam, OneWorld, ). In the USA it will give you the right livery for the operators that fly for different major airlines.

This mapping is all based on registration codes.
