FS2004 - photoreal Mainpanel (2D-panel) for Piper Cherokee 140 from Ole Egholm (pa2814oe.zip)
specially made and optically adapded to the virtual cockpit and only usable
for this aircraft. Additionally Night-Lighting of the virtual cockpit.
At first my thanks to Ole Egholm for this fine modelled aircraft , that means the plane and especially
the virtual cockpit. With above mentionned zip-file the cherokee comes without 2D-panel and is
-of course - fully flyable, but I found that the readout of the radios is a little bit difficult and therefore
made this addition taking into consideration, that such a fine virtual cockpit should have an optically
adapded mainpanel. For this I made a composed bitmap.
Some further changes were made:
a) Autopilot added (in place of gps) for longer flights
b) New Gyro with Heading-Select in both mainpanel and VC
c) Nightlighting of both panels for "VFR at night"
Installation: First install the aircraft a n d the additional Radio-gauges (gbbkscrs.zip) as described
by Ole. Then
unzip panel.zip into the panel-folder of this aircraft and overwrite panel.cfg when prompted
unzip gauges.zip into FS9/gauges-folder
Nightlighting of the virtual cockpit:
Exchange in aircraft.cfg the corresponding entry to read as follows:
