After the war, the " Twin Beech" Beechcraft Expeditor was the RCAF’s basic multi-engine trainer. First flown in 1937, the Expeditor had variants 18A, 18B, D-18S, CT-128, C-45 Mk.3N, Mk.3NM, Mk.3T, Mk.3TM. The aircraft was used to train pilots and radio officers, transport VIPs, and as a general transport aircraft. Later in its career, this aircraft was used in search and rescue (SAR) missions while continuing in navigation training and short-range transport roles. The Beech 18 CT-45 Expeditor ended its RCAF career with Air Reserves Units. Some of the retired RCAF Beech 18s were sold to commercial operators both in Canada, the US, and Europe.
This 8K livery depicts Beechcraft CT-128 Expeditor Mk. 3T, RCAF (Serial No. 2292), Training Command which was based at No.424 Auxiliary Squadron RCAF, Hamilton ON from 1952 - 1959.
To install, you must have the product Carenado's Beechcraft D-18 for MSFS installed ( Available in the Marketplace). Simply drop this livery into your Community folder.

Awesome repaint! Anyway you could do CWHMs Beech 18 C-GZCE?

Thanks much for your fine repaint -- which decided me to buy the add-on!
If you decide to update the livery sometime, could I suggest that you reverse the Canadian flag insignia on the starboard fin? -- the small Union Jack should always be frontwards -- as on the port fin. (I did this repaint for FSX, did the research!)

Great livery. Thanks. "Bomber12th" addressed my concern on the wording stencilled on the fuselage. See below.
Bomber12th
"Aromatics" is the correct spelling. It refers to aromatic fuels, and is a common stencil when it comes to piston-engine aircraft of the 1940s and 1950s.

Thank you for a beautiful livery!

A small question, Why did you classify it as "General", when clearly it's a livery?
DeltaSierra author
No Carenado D-18 for MSFS category. They need to update their options in that menu to reflect some of the current third party products available now. Then I can change it.

Can you upload the latter Canada flag version?
DeltaSierra author
I had one version with the flag, and liked it, so it is possible. I have enough research photos I might try another livery.
