A beautiful, 4-engined British airliner of 1938. Only
seven were built for Imperial Airways and BOAC before
de Havilland had to concentrate on military aircraft,
but the experience gained with the Albatross was used
to design the famous DH.98 Mosquito fighter-bomber of WW2.
For more details and flying instructions, please see the
pdf document installed in the \Manual folder.
This model includes a reasonably accurate panel, and a
working virtual cockpit.

Installation:
Just unzip this archive to the Flight Simulator 9\aircraft folder.
Remember to 'use folder names' when unzipping.
----
The gauges are to a large extent default gauges of Flight
Simulator 2004, a few of them modified by me for four engines.
The RPM and fuel gauges are by me, but with much inspiration
from default FS2004 gauges by Microsoft
Magneto switches, starter buttons, prop feathering buttons
and some engine gauges are public domain gauges by
Mike (MoparMike) Wagner. Please read his original readme
files in the \panel folder.
The ILS and flap indicators are based on XML code by
Saviero Maurri (Vickers Varsity panel), bitmaps by me.
The ILS indicator was modified to make it look more
like the ADF gauge from the FS2004 Lockheed Vega, the
flap indicator to become a four-position switch as on the DH91.
The pilot figure is borrowed from the LA-7 sample project
included with FSDS2.
----
This plane was made with FSDS 2.24, the textures with Paint Shop Pro and DxtBmp.
It is freeware and must stay that way.
I hope you like flying the DH91!
