:pushpin: Why should this airline be added?
This airline should be added into the game as German Cargo was an airline for West Germany that operated freighter services on behalf of Lufthansa, also German Cargo was later on rebranded to Lufthansa Cargo but operated flights in Europe, Asia which includes HKG.

during my research of another airline (Arrow Air) i managed to find out about this airline, and i noticed that there were a few aircraft missing from the list of operated types, so figured i’d add them on:

(Do note that these following aircraft types are not in-game, at least as of this reply.)

Boeing 707 (-330C, B703) - 4 former.
(Pictured below: D-ABUA - later scrapped, known as HC-BTB at end of its life)

Douglas DC-8 (-73F, 73CF, DC87) - 5 former (2/3 for both variants, respectively).
(Pictured below: Douglas DC-8-73F D-ADUA - now known as N603AL)

(Pictured below: Douglas DC-8-73CF D-ADUC - later scrapped, known as N605AL at end of its life)
