Hotfix by Nicholas Mitchell "Scorch00."
I am very proud to present the very first true, flyable DC-10 VLAT (Very Large Air Tanker) to the sim world. This aircraft was based upon the SGA / Thomas Ruth and Eric Cantu version. Made FSX native by George Arana (which this version is based on). Then modified again by myself and George Arana to create the VLAT version. This package comes with 2 models and 6 liveries. The first model converted into a VLAT was a DC-10-10 model and became T-910, in 2007-08 it was exclusively contracted by Cal Fire. Which a single livery represents on that model. The second model is the DC-10-30, which the fleet of 10 Tanker Air Carrier now consists entirely of. T-910, 911, 912, and 914 are represented on this model in US operations. The 6th livery is of T-910 in NSW RFS contract livery in Australia for the 2018-19 season. This package has updated views, special retardant effect, and some updated dynamic lighting for the landing and runway turn off lights. Original aircraft design credit belongs to Thomas Ruth and Eric Cantu. VLAT conversion credit goes to Nicholas Mitchell "Scorch00" and George Arana "euroastar350."
Created in P3Dv4.5, but should work in FSX and P3D v5. But is untested in either.
