    Your link to the photo of the N-431HM shows a painting that SWISS AIR LINES or Swissair never had. The original SWISS AIR LINES never saw a DC-3 with this livery and this identification in flight operations.


    The association, Friends of Swissair, restored a DC-3 in cooperation with JU-Air. The club was active from 2004 to 2006. Your restored DC-3 was the last DC-3 with almost original SWISS AIR LINES livery.

    Here is an example of the first original DC-3 HB-IRA:

    Unfortunately, this painting of the N-431HM does not belong to the legacy of SWISS AIR LINES or Swissair.

    But it was N431HM I painted, and not a Swissair DC-3, so saying my paint was not even close to the real thing is not correct. If you want HB-IRA, I might do that, but that was not the objective here.

    Thaks for your work. Getting the HB-IRA as well would be a nice addition in my opinion.

    With all due respect to your work, the painting is very far removed from the original. The lettering SWISS AIR LINES and the aircraft identification on the fuselage are missing. The identification was also used on the top and bottom of the wings. Please fix it.

    The livery is correct, it's stored at my home airport (LSZG). The N431HM has an american registration and doesn't have the "SWISS AIR LINES" on it's fuselage. Just "Swissair" on the nose to secure the rights of the name "Swissair".

    Hoping you'll do this with the Retrofit version as well...This is my favorite livery so far. :)

    This is amazing, you couldnt do a retrofit verion as the one irl is more like a retrofitted DC3 than a classic one! many thanks

    Just perfect! This is one of the most beautiful liveries I have ever seen... it's just perfect for a classic DC-3!

    Saw the real one at LFBD two weeks ago, absolutely wonderful. Is there a chance you're working on F-BBBE ?

    Awesome, thank you!

    However, it looks very scratched and used... they real one is much more polished :)

    I know, but there is no paintkit and I had to make do with the default textures. I tried to polish it more, but not enough apparently...
