    Douglas C-47 - USAAF "That's All Brother" - Image 1

    Description

    80 years ago today, men crossed the english channel to start the west advance that would end nazi-fascist tyranny.

     

    "That´s All Brother" is an iconic airplane that had a major role in the D-Day; be the lead airplane of the 800 C-47s that dropped paratroopers behind the "Atlantic Wall", being a new aircraft fitted with the Rebecca / Eureka beacon finder, SCR-717C Navigational Radar, and the GEE Mark II navigational system installed to find the beacons installed earlier by the pathfinders and lead the way for other troop transport aircraft.

     

    Somehow her importance was lost until military historians, among them Staff Sergeant Matthew Scales, found out that the aircraft that was considered to be the lead aircraft the "Belle of Birmingham" was incorrect, since the Lt. Col. John M. Donalson, commander of the 87th Troop Carrier Squadron, refused to cut holes and modify the airframe for the new equipment on the "Belle of Birmingham", so they pick a brand new C-47 and painted a sound message on the nose of the new aircraft; "That's All Brother" as a direct message to Hitler. So the correct aircraft was traced with little hope to be found, but she was found in Bassler Aviation yard waiting to be converted to a BT-67.

     

    Bassler prompt agreed with the restoration and helped with their expertise to bring such important piece of history back to the skies in original collors. Now "Thats All Brother" flies in airshows and is part of the Commemorative Air Force fleet.

     

    This version includes textures with cockpit, cabin, custom cargo, ground equipment and textures for formation flying.

    Thank you for this livery!
    I've been with Basler Turbo for a few decades and was involved with the restoration of this plane.
    Great to be able to enjoy it in FS2024, as well!
    Would it be possible to color the fuel caps red?
    Thanks

    Douglas R4D-1 - USMC

    Douglas R4D-1 - USMC

    The liveries in this package represent aircraft of Marine Air Group 25, which flew the RD4-1 (the Marine version of the C-47 and nicknamed the "Flying Boxcar") throughout the Pacific Theater during WWII. MAG-25, as part of the joint Army/Navy/Marine Southern Pacific Combat Air Transport Command (SCAT), was founded in June 1942 and provided rapid transport of personnel and cargo, assault support, and aeromedical evacuation to and from forward areas in support of campaigns ranging from Guadalcanal through the Philippines. These liveries were inspired by aircraft pictures and drawings as provided by the MAG-25 site (https://www.marineairgroup25.com/) and reflect actual wartime aircraft. Many of these were procured from US Army C-47 pools or otherwise pressed into hasty service during the darkest days of WWII and were repurposed for service with the Marines. With scarcely enough time to paint over previous identification marks (which were prohibited by early Naval Air regulations, to include nose art) these aircraft were a mismatched lot and are shown as they would have been seen during their most desperate, and most distinguished service. For the service during the battle of Guadalcanal, MAG-25 was awarded with the Distinguished Unit Citation decoration, and was decativated in 1947 before returning for service during the Korean War.
