This is my 1st DCS modding. T-Tail Twin Jets mod project.

vol.1 : McDonnell Douglas DC-9 (-30) and MD-83 (-81/82/88) --- version 0.0.5 on 28th/Jan./2024 .
MD-81/82/88s have the same shape to MD-83 (different engine power or fuel amount, cockpit architecture).
I have a future plan to add Boeing 717 (MD-95) variant, but its priority is not high.
Other family --- DC-9 -10/15/20/40/50 or MD-87, MD-90 --- are no plan.

thanks a lot for the DC-9, I will try it right away 🙏 … also, looking forward to the Tu-134 for my cold war scenarios, the Yak-40 was getting long in the tooth 🙂

 

Edit: Works perfect, thanks again 👍

Hello, everyone.
I'm happy you are interested in my mod.

Now I try to add more USAF Nightingale liveries ....
1980 ones, early 1990 ones, "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" lettering ones deployed to NATO and no Red Cross tail ones.

Amongst many nice things about your Mod, one of the things I like the most is that you share it through ED's User Files, instead of a place like Dropbox or Google Drive, as I can be fairly sure that if I share a mission the recipients would be able to get the Mods easily even a long time after the fact. 👍  Wish the size limits of ED were higher, so more Mod authors could do the same.

USAF C-9A  in VIP paintscheme with CAM's VIP planes

This C-9A is not "Air Force Two" one, but NATO VIP transport.
VC-9C's paintscheme is similar to this 71-0876 and I'll add it easily.

I try to change its belly's blue into more bright like B747-AF One.

I added lighting to this excellent mod so it looks better at night, especially with ED's new lighting engine push.

 

Thanks to @western_JPN for this excellent mod so far, and looking forward to more planes and more airliner liveries.

Is there any template for this mod?

About DC-9 -30 variant, USN C-9B template can be used also for civil airlines.
That was once cleaned-up to publish in merging layers and naming easy understandable.

Other resources I have are messy (in different xcf files, same named layers have different pixels etc.), also about MD-83 ones.
Which airline's xcf should be published ?

For MD-80s, my Iran Airtour xcf will help more in painting the tail section.

My 3d model has a pointed old tail cone instead of newer flat tail cone though.
