A "What If..." repaint.

What if... Germany had needed an alternative while waiting on production deliveries of their Ju-52s...

A Luftwaffe themed repaint that works for both the float and wheeled versions of the recently released native FSX Avia 57 by Milton Shupe and team.

I have also made some edits to a few internal textures to tie in further with the theme. 
A new prop texture is also included, but should you not like it just delete 'spinpropb18.dds' and it will use the default texture.


Copy the texture.Luftwaffe folder to both the float and wheeled aircraft folders, and add the following to the aircraft.cfgs:


Float vesion:

[fltsim.4]
title = Avia 57 Cargo Float  Luftwaffe
sim = Avia57F
model = Cargof
panel = Cargof
sound =
texture = Luftwaffe
panel_alias =
kb_checklists=Avia57_check
kb_reference=Avia57_Ref
atc_id = K673
atc_id_color =
atc_parking_types =
atc_parking_code =
atc_airline= 
atc_flight_number= 
ui_variation = Luftwaffe
ui_manufacturer = Avia
ui_type = Avia 57 Floats
description=Avia 57 Cargo Float  Luftwaffe
visual_damage =


Wheeled version:

[fltsim.9]
title=Avia 57  Luftwaffe VIP Transport
sim=Avia57
model=57
panel=cargo
sound=RK-12
texture=Luftwaffe
panel_alias =
kb_checklists=Avia57_check
kb_reference=Avia57_Ref
atc_id=F-2
atc_id_color=
atc_parking_code =
atc_airline=
atc_flight_number=
ui_variation=Luftwaffe VIP Transport
ui_manufacturer=Avia
ui_type=Avia 57
description=Avia 57 Luftwaffe VIP Transport
visual_damage=
atc_id_font=Verdana,-11,1,600,0

[fltsim.10]
title=Avia 57  Luftwaffe Cargo
sim=Avia57
model=Bush
panel=cargo
sound=RK-12
texture=Luftwaffe
panel_alias =
kb_checklists=Avia57_check
kb_reference=Avia57_Ref
atc_id=F-2
atc_id_color=
atc_parking_code =
atc_airline=
atc_flight_number=
ui_variation=Luftwaffe Cargo
ui_manufacturer=Avia
ui_type=Avia 57
description=Avia 57 Luftwaffe Cargo
visual_damage=
atc_id_font=Verdana,-11,1,600,0

...and finally, copy over the 'thumbnail' image in the 'non-float thumbnail' folder to the wheeled Luftwaffe texture folder, overwriting when asked.
(This will give you a more appropriate thumbnail in your aircraft selection window)
