Canarias Cargo operated two DC-8-62F and one A-300 from the Canary Islands to some Africa and Europe destinations. This file includes both DC-8 planes as were on the years 95 and 96. The company closed by June 1996. I'm including a folder with "dirty white textures" for repainters and a document called "DC-8 Flight Instructions.rtf". It belongs to an old FS2002 DC-8-63 model, but it is still usefull.

Warranty:
I love the warranty wrote by Andrew W. Hall:
"None. Zip. Nada. Use at your own risk. I dont think
this will harm your computer in any way, but if it does, I
dont even want to hear about it."
A last remark: Why don't become a repainter? There are a lot of planes with special markings. I'm tired of the usual F-16 low-vis scheme, or the usual 757 in Delta markings. Why don't a "Bat's outa Hell's" B-25 or a serie of Qantas 737s? The plane modelers like HJG are very important, but they can't make all the painting schemes by himselfs. So why don't help they?
Installation:
Unzip dc-8ah83.zip in your "Aircraft" folder of FS2004 or FS2002, install your desired panel and that's all. If you don't know how to install a panel, just let the default Boeing 747.
If you like this, or any observation, send me a mail to dracosist@cantv.net
