This ZIP contains a repaint of the Captain Sim727-200 in the new kulula.com livery.
Suitable for FS2002 and FS2004
(If you use FS2004, make sure you have the latest 1.5 update).

DESCRIPTION:
************

This Kulula B727-200 was bought and rennovated by Comair for its South African subsiduary kulula.com (kulula is Zulu for 'easy') in July 2001. With its unusual appearance (a brash color scheme and overall metallic shine), its easy-going personnel and the "hip" name; kulula.com is a total contrast to the traditional established airlines. Customers book direct via the kulula.com Web page and no tickets are used.

In real life the entire fuselage seems to be covered by an almost (but not quite) high-gloss metallic shine reminiscent of a wall painted with a satin sheen. Thanks to Captain Sim's wonderful model that allows alpha-channel mapping, I have tried to reproduce this effect as faithfully as possible.

Installation using the Texture and Config Editor (TCE).
******************************************************
1. Make a folder called Kulula-com in a temporary directory. Unzip the contents of this archive file into that directory. Use any ZIP utility like WINZIP to do this. (Windows XP has an unzipping facility built in).
You should now have a folder called kulula-com containing the 6 texture files and a few other files as well.

2. Locate the Captain Sim Variants Folder. You will find this folder as a third-level sub folder of the main Flight Simulator folder. Depending on which version of Flight Simulator you are using and whether you have customized the main location of the main FS folder, possible locations might be:
C:\program files\microsoft games\fs9\Captain_Sim\727\Variants ...or
C:\program files\microsoft games\fs2002\Captain_Sim\727\Variants ...or
C:\FS2004\Captain_Sim\727\Variants or wherever... Just look for this folder.

3] This folder should be empty except a control file called "0.0". Leave this file alone.

4] Move the folder "kulula-com" (with its contents) from your temporary directory into the variants folder of the Captain Sim folder. There should now be only one folder in the variants folder called "kulula-com", containing the texture files, etc.

5] Run the TCE and install this repaint as per the Captain Sim user_manual.
