This is a repaint of the Viscount 803 in KLM 1966 colors. The freeware Vickers Viscount 800 for FSX by Jens B. Kristensen (JBK) is needed for this repaint. Textures are 32bit dds for FSX/P3D3 users. FS2004 DXT3 BMP textures are included as well for FS2004 users who have the FS2004 version. This repaint was tested on FSX-SE. It should also work on FSX, and P3Dv1-3. In June 1955, KLM placed an order for nine Vickers V.800 Viscounts, making it the first foreign company to order the type. They were to replace the Convair CV-340s and intended for use on the European network and a number of shorter intercontinental services to the Middle East and northern Africa. The nine Viscounts were delivered between 6 June and 23 December 1957. All aircraft were delivered in the old KLM "The Flying Dutchman" color scheme. From the early 1960s, all aircraft were equipped with the new KLM color scheme with the light and dark blue band across the hull with the slashes in the tail and in addition, red KLM with emblem. From October 1965 to November 1966 the KLM Viscounts gradually disappeared from the fleet. They were all sold to Aer Lingus of Ireland. A new color scheme was introduced in 1966, the blue stripes and white ball as depicted in this repaint. The few Viscounts that were still used by KLM, were repainted in this new color scheme in 1966.

This is a repaint of the L-188 Electra in KLM 1966 colors. The freeware L-188 Electra by Libardo Guzman is needed for this repaint. Textures are 32bit DDS for FSX/P3D3 . FS2004 DXT3 BMP textures are included as well. This repaint was tested on FSX-SE. It should work on FSX, FS2004, & P3Dv3. On February 29, 1956, KLM signed a contract with Lockheed for the delivery of 12 Lockheed L-188C Electras. KLM needed a number of aircraft with a larger flight range and greater capacity than its Vickers Viscounts and the carrier was not convinced that the Se-210 Caravelle was profitable, which proved to be false. KLM was thus the only European user of the L-188 as most major European airlines decided to purchase the Caravelles. The twelve L-188C Electras were delivered to KLM between October 10 1959 and December 14 1960. This is a repaint of PH-LLD which was delivered to KLM on 16 December 1959. In February 1969 it was bought by the U.S. carrier Universal Airlines, and converted to a freighter.

This is a repaint of the DC-9-32 in KLM 1972 colors. The freeware DC-9-30 by Eagle Rotorcraft Simulations (George Arana) native FSX conversion with VC of Erick Cantu's DC-9-30 is needed for this repaint (link provided). The textures are 32bit DDS. It was tested on FSX-SE, but should work on FSX & P3Dv3. KLM received DC-9-32 PH-DNH on 12 December 1967. It was the second DC-9-30 delivered to the airline. Christened "City of Zurich", it flew with KLM for 20 years before being sold to Midway Airlines in May 1987.

This is a repaint of the DC-9-15 in KLM 1967 colors. The freeware DC-9-10 by Eagle Rotorcraft Simulations (George Arana) native FSX conversion with VC of Erick Cantu's DC-9-10 is needed for this repaint (link provided). The textures are 32bit DDS. It was tested on FSX-SE, but should work on FSX & P3Dv3. KLM is The Netherlands official carrier, and the oldest operating airline in the world. It was formed on 7 October 1919 by Dutch business and banking interests. It began operations 100 years ago this year, on 17 May 1920 with a flight from Amsterdam to London with a deHavilland D.H. 16. I am dedicating these 8 repaints of the KLM stripes and ball 1960s livery to an airline which began in the relatively small nation of Holland and is a giant in world aviation history, which has outlasted the likes of PanAm, TWA, Eastern, National, BOAC, Swissair, Sabena, etc. and is still going strong.
