:pushpin: Why should this livery be added?
Martinair operated 7 MD-11’s in total, 3 dedicated freighters and 4 combis. Between 2004 and 2006, Martinair underwent a new livery with this utterly stunning one being painted onto their entire fleet. The other 3 combi’s were repainted into the Martinair Cargo livery we see in-game in late 2005-early 2006, whereas PH-MCP was painted into this livery as it was still utilised on passenger flights, both within Europe and to the Caribbean/South America providing the additional capacity the airline needed for its passenger network (Though I can’t get accurate details to prove it, some sources have said that a couple of the other combis were also utilised in 2006/2007 for passenger flights when MCP was unavailable). Martinair decided to stop using the MD-11 fleet for passenger operations in Autumn 2007, likely due to lower demand and the beginning of the financial crash, however, some sources (Whether they’re accurate) say that MCP was used a couple of times in 2008 in support of the 767 fleet.

I know this is a bit of an odd one, being only applied to one of the airline’s MD-11CF’s, but it would be a brilliant addition, providing players with a second passenger MD-11 they can use, in a stunning livery and I personally would love to see more of them available for regular use at player’s airports, especially for us old farts who do like the previous generation of aircraft (Personally would love to have this at SXM alongside my KLM tri-jet).
