Description
This is my rendition a close 1:1 of the famous Buffalo Airways DC3 C-GWIR aircraft fully with an included IRL cockpit texture to match the real aircraft and a replacement Knots gauge that fully functions as it does in the real aircraft also useful for VATSIM and other online network users. This also includes better metalic PBR and more. Feel free to use my knot gauge on other liveries or the whole DC3 set. This aircraft is known for commonly flying on routes such as what is known as the sked which is a route between Yellowknife and Hay river, a popular commute route for residents there.
There is 2 variants included in 1 folder. GPS and classic. To install, download and extract the one folder into community and open MSFS. There should be two variants, the GPS and the classic after installing.

Buffalo Airways C-GWIR DC-3 With included cockpit textures and airspeed knots gauge GPS/Classic
C-GWIR DC3 Buffalo Airways with Retrofit cockpit and custom IRL cockpit textures and Knots gauge instead of M.P.H which knots is being currently used. Also better for VATSIM use. This also includes better metalic PBR. The knots gauge has been tested and functions correctly and gives out the correct Knots reading.

Buffalo Airways C-GPNR DC-3 With IRL cockpit textures and IRL airspeed knot gauge instead of M.P.H
C-GPNR one of Buffalo Airways DC3 originally a C47 converted for passenger use and is used often on a flight called the sked between Yellowknife and Hayriver and many other passenger routes operated by Buffalo airways. This livery is currently in Pax GPS config however will include a non GPS Pax variant when I have more time away from college. Otherwise enjoy this beautiful bird with 99% accuracy and custom PBR and custom cockpit textures to match the IRL aircraft as close as possible.

Buffalo Airways C-FLFR DC-3 With IRL cockpit textures and IRL airspeed knot gauge instead of M.P.H
C-FLFR DC3 owned by Buffalo Airways with the included IRL cockpit textures and cargo configuration. This aircraft was flown and shown by Buffalo Joe who flew it to demonstrate how to start, fly and land the DC3 in Mikey Mcbryan's Youtube video. He was also seen flying it to Fort Simpson in a later video to delver goods. This file contains both retrofit (as it is IRL) and those who wish to fly old school with the non GPS retrofit as well.

Hi! Downloaded today (26/jan) but the file has C-GJKM and not C-GWIR. Is this correct? Thanks.

yes same here

Yeah it does seem to be messed up, the json refers to both GWIR and GJKM

My mistake they should be fixed as of recently, I made the mistake of uploading the wrong one after playing with lowering the file size and structure the folders differently as it was a popular request. Thanks for letting me know of this issue.

Great mod.
On the Knots gauage, Im not sure it displays the actual IAS properly...its not the correct speed in knots

I saw this livery at yellowknife today, at 300m approx its pink textures
about 3 years ago
I tried placing this as a static airplane at Yellowknife, and I can confirm that if you get too far away from it the textures go pink. Wonder if there's some kind of LOD setting that needs to be adjusted?

Nice work, but to update every second day sucks....

Is there a way to get back the mph gauge? As every manual is in mph, I dont like flying by knots in this aircraft
over 3 years ago
This is a really fantastic effort, however it is a very large mod for what it is, with lots of duplicated textures. Are you aware of the fallback method via the texture.cfg files? Any duplicated files which are needed repeatedly can be used in multiple liveries this way.

I am only just aware of this by viewing one livery someone did that has this method included and I will attempt to include this at a later date when I can. Thanks for the feedback on this.

Thanks for a very good job. How do I put the Knots gauge in other textures?

go to Community\douglas-dc3_C-GWIR - Cargo\SimObjects\Airplanes\douglas-dc3-CGWIR-Cargo\texture.C-GWIRCARGOand copy the following: DIALSC_ALB.PNG.DDS , DIALSC_EMISS.TIF.DDS , DIALSC_NORM.PNG.DDS . And paste them in MSFS PACKAGE\Official\OneStore\microsoft-aircraft-dc3-enhanced\SimObjects\Airplanes\douglas-dc3\Texture and replace for all liveries to use this
