Repaint of Cathay Pacific Airways DC-6B, reg VR-HFG for the PMDG DC-6 addon.
You can learn more about Cathay Pacific, and this aircraft on this webstie: http://www.chingchic.com/dc6---vr-hfg.html
The aircraft was first registerd with CATHAY PACIFIC AIRWAYS LTD on 7/FEB/1955 and de-registered, sold out of HKG on 23/DEC/1962 per Civial Aviation Department HK registers.
The DC-6B was a game-changer. It was the first aircraft that Cathay Pacific bought new from the manufacturer – it cost HK$6,736,860 – while for those sitting in the cockpit, it came equipped with radar, also a novelty for the fleet at this time. It sent out another signal, too: that Cathay Pacific was about to join the top table of global airlines.

See included readme for installation instructions. Both methods offered - Community Folder and .ptp file.
Created using PMDG's DC6 paintkit. Originally made for P3Dv4.

Love the livery, unfortunately I still suffer from the "pink control column" even after the latest update :-/ Tried both the ptp file and the Community drop, same result. Doesn't stop me from flying it of course :-P

Hey. Oh no!
Some trouble shooting you could do:
Can you make sure that in your "SimObjects\Airplanes\PMDG-DC6B-CPA\TEXTURE.CPA-VRHFG" folder if you see 2 files called:
Those 2 files missing is what caused the issue in my original upload. But it was fixed after adding those two, and then updating the "layout.json" of that livery.
Then I just used the PMDG Ops center to export the installed livery to new .PTP.
Hope that helps you fix it!

Fantastic work! Hope to see more versions of Cathay. I remember a green and a grey versions also existed. They are all beautiful~~

Thanks. It's nothing too great to be honest, but it gets the job done from afar. Hardest part was recreating those Cathay logos since not much high quality source material.
I plan on doing a white-grey one like on the DC4s at some point. Though idk what you mean by green and gray? Maybe link some images of what you mean? Thanks!

Ah I see it now. Just bare metal and only green tail. Will look into that :)

My grey one refers to the bare metal with upper white and middle red line, like this photo: https://abpic.co.uk/pictures/view/1641991
This bare metal colour was also produced as a 1:400 model too. Just google DC6 Cathay you can see a lot of it.
The green one is actually your current painting. I figure out your colour is actually green instead of black now, because of the sunset I couldn't see clearly at first. Now your green one is truly classic and beautiful^^

Yeah thats exactly what I thought of when you said white. Will look into that. I did a bare metal Cathay DC3 for P3D that used similar titling, so should be feasible.
But the one Linuxmonster above was referring to was this. Seems like an interim paintjob: https://www.airteamimages.com/douglas-dc-6_VR-HFK_cathay-pacific-airways_68565.html

The interim one looks indeed like an unfinished painting job. We seldom see this one~~
