A Next Generation panel for single engine props with retractable gear for MSFS 2004. Features large screen PFD, EHSI, moving map, GPS, FMC, and more. Requires the shareware REALCRT gauges and "NaVData" (nd2k_202.zip) by Tony D'Ambrosio.

I've included the RealCRT gauges which are limited to 10 minutes if you are not registered. Please refer to the zip file "Top Avionics" for details regarding operation and registration.


Also there are panel configuration files for both a C182RG and Mooney Bravo.


Installation:

>First, I recommend making a copy of your current aircraft panel folder by renaming it or storing safely elsewhere.

1) Unzip the 'gauges.zip' archive and install its contents into the main Flight Simulator 9\Gauges folder. If you do not already have the RealCRT gauges, then extract the contents of 'CRT Gauges.zip' and install into your main gauges folder. Please note that without registration the gauges will cease to operate after 10 minutes.

2) Unzip 'panel.zip' and install the panel folder into the aircraft of your choosing. The panel.cfg file is intended for a Mooney type airplane (it has a fuel tank selector switch). If you wish to fly a Cessna 182RG type AC, then use the panel.cfg file within the folder 'C182RG'.


NOTES:


** The EHSI is toggled by clicking the 3rd knob down on the left side of the MFD. (see pic)

** The radios displayed in the MFD will NOT allow for frequency changes (unless you edit your aircraft.cfg file). Instead, use the Top Avionics radio will display upon clicking the radio icon.


This panel is shareware and comes with no gaurantees, but personally I think the RealCRT gauges continue to be a 5-star add-on to MSFS.



Enjoy!
