About This File
FS2004/FSX Martinair Holland Douglas DC-6A. On 13 December 1966 the Dutch charter company Martinair Holland (MAC) bought a Douglas DC6A, registered PH-MAM. The DC-6A, which at one time belonged to KLM and could transport 11 tons payload or 97 passengers, was aquired in order to replace the smaller C-54B PH-MAE. It was a very popular aircraft among crew and passengers alike. From late October 1968 till the beginning of January 1970, PH-MAM flew on the Biafra airlift from the island of Fernando Po to Uli airstrip to provide humanitarian aid, on behalf of the Dutch Red Cross. Having returned from this mission, the aircraft was overhauled and used by Martinair for one more year, before being sold to Yugoslavia. These are textures only. You will need California Classic's FS2004/FSX Douglas DC-6B CB-16 Base Pack, DC-6A CB-17 Base Pack and DC-6A CB-16 base pack. Repaint by Maarten Brouwer. (See also CORRECTED__READFIRST_DC-6A_MAC.ZIP)
