Introduction
A collection of liveries (does not include the plane) applicable to the VSKYLABS C-47 Skytrain and DC-3 Airliner add-on aircraft for X-Plane 11 and 12. Use them as they are for traveling incognito, or import them into your favorite graphics editor to apply your own customization. Modified textures are for your own use only and may not be distributed without prior written permission from Robert W. Heyen.
Plain Plane Pack livery names are derived from the style, color and door variant. While the passenger ("Pax") variants implement panel lines and rivets to emulate a left-side passenger door, the protruding cargo door hinges remain since they are defined by the 3D model and cannot be altered by this package.

1. AlloverSol Wine Cargo
2. Bandito1 Yellow Cargo
3. Boa Pumpkin Pax
4. Bolt White Pax
5. Charger HiCon Cargo
6. Chromatic Patches Pax
7. CL-Bird Tan-Burgundy Pax
8. Comet3 Safety Pax
9. EarthSol Olive Cargo
10. Easterly Fresh Pax
