FS2004 HUGHES OH-6A "LOACH"
Winner of an U.S. Army competition for a light observation helicopter, the Hughes OH-6A saw widespread use in Viet Nam a an aeroscout, often working with AH-1 Cobras and Aero Scout Platoons. Small, nimble, and easy to maintain, the OH-6 still serves as a trainer for future MH-6 Series "Little Bird" pilots." This model of a Nam-era OH-6A includes VC with custom gauges, and two paint schemes.
1)After downloading the zip, locate it, and extract the file to a temp folder.

2)Copy the folder OH-6A over to your FS9 aircraft folder

3) Open the gauges folder, and copy the
oh6.cab gauge files into your FS9 Gauges Folder. Also copy any effects files that are also in the gauges folder over to your FS9 Effects folder.


4) During this installation, you may be asked to overwrite some files. This may be due to you already having some of my planes installed. Overwrite or not, choice is yours.


5) Double check everything before e-mailing me! 99% of problems can be solved this way:-) Since you are reading this, you are way ahead of the dimwits who don't bother to read readme files!:-p

6) Since everyone has their own way of porting planes to FSX, and their own preferences, I'll just leave all that to you.


BEFORE YOU FLY!.......
See steps 1 to 6 above:)


NOTAMS:
It's not often I make Helo's, so I'm not sure how good the airfiles are. Hopefully they're good enough for fun flying:-)

I changed the engine type to Jet, so my gauges will work (sort of) I also tweaked the default Bell 206 sounds to work with a Jet Engine, and included those sounds with this package.

Enjoy!
This model was built to the best of my skills, knowledge, and simply to my own tastes and standards.
If something is "missing", or "wrong", oh well, you got it for a good price:-) For a one-man shop, I think I do pretty well:-p

As for repaints, new versions, etc. I have no idea if, when, or what. So please, no "placing orders".
These files shouldn't harm your computer, but I accept no responsability for their use and effect.
Play with it,do repaints, give to friends or enemies(SEE BELOW), but do not make money off of it without my express approval. This also goes for any other peoples' files in this release.

Also,if you want to re-post the plane, or its repaints, on your site, or another site, please ask me first:) I usually say yes, unless my plane been too corrupted or hacked by you or others.

I only upload to SurClaro, and Sim-Outhouse.com. If you find one of my planes anywhere else, I cannot guarantee its integrity. Whoever re-posted the plane might be better able to help you if you have any trouble, if he did any mods and left an e-mail addy
I have nothing against other sites, I just want to keep things simple, and easy to track.
Good Luck,
