FS2004/FSX/P3D Riddle Airlines DC-7CF 1961. This is a repaint of the Riddle Airlines Douglas DC-7CF. The freeware CalClassic DC-7F by Greg Pepper and Tom Gibson is needed for this repaint. In comparison with the DC-6 of which only 3 were operated by the airline, Riddle Airlines (and Airlift) had a love affair with the DC-7. In fact, the Riddle/Airlift group utilized a total of 28 DC-7s from 1960 to 1970. Interestingly, on March 15 1961, a DC-7CF completed a record 6,307 mile nonstop commercial flight from Tokyo to Chicago in 20 hrs. 30 min. This repaint is of N296, which was with Riddle from 1961 to 1963. Textures are 32 bit BMP. This repaint was tested on FSX-SE. It should work on FS2004, FSX & P3D v1-3, and FS2004. By Ted Giana.
