Still a WIP, but should be done by soon.  I will send it to Avsim as soon as it is ready.  Still need to fix the fuselage "Delta" and make spec maps.

This depicts N8027 (Ex-PanAm N802PA).  In service with Delta from August of 1969 until January of 1974.

Thank you Mike!

As a side-note...  If anyone from JF happens to look at this.  Is there any plans to do a 50/60/70 series DC-8 expansion?  Those are the ones that I would really like to have for my Delta flying pleasure.

Excellent work!

Hopefully first of many paints for this aircraft.  So many to do for the -30:

KLM
JAL
Braniff
National - "Sun King"
United - "Friendship"
Panagra

Just to name a few...

I too hope we get the -50 & Jet Trader versions.  Then the repaint world really opens up...

For anyone interested in real world flights for Delta's early DC-8 you can look at the 1973 itinerary here.

http://www.departedflights.com/DL030173p86.html

It is any of the flights with equipment listed as DC-8. The D8F is the 50 and the D8S is the 60.
