Fictional livery for the Cessna C-172 Classic “Iditarod Air Service“ (Sled dogs race) as requested
This livery was custom made for the Iditarod Sled Dogs Race.
The Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race, more commonly known as “The Iditarod,” is an annual long-distance sled dog race that takes place in Alaska in early March. It travels from Anchorage to Nome. Mushers and a team of 12 to 14 dogs, at least 5 of which must be on a leash at the finish line, complete the route in 8-15 days or more. The Iditarod began in 1973 as an event that tested the best dog sled drivers and teams, but evolved into today's highly competitive race.
Numerous aircraft are in use to support, secure and possibly rescue the participants. They are also called Iditarod Air Force.
The Iditarod Air Force (IAF) is a group of volunteer pilots who donate their time and aircraft to the Iditarod before and during the race. Before the race begins, they load their planes with drop bags and fly them to checkpoints along the course. This ensures that when each musher arrives at a checkpoint, they have their drop bags there with the items they need for the race.
This livery is a tribute to these excellent pilots.
Please notice:
The main version ist the aircraft equiped with skis. The other two liveries with wheels and floots are only to understand how the file structure works.
I you want a better version of these two types please tell me.
If you want to accompany the race yourself by plane: Our member 55tom55 created all 12 landing spots on the trail for us.
