Description:
Thanks to Andrew Spring of www.p166.com!!
The last model of my Piaggio P-166 series until Piaggio decides to build a new one. The P-166DP-1 is a renewed version of the P-166DL3. The P-166DL3 is the actual production version of a plane that firt flew in 1957, now with turboprop engines, new avionics, increased fuel capacity, and completly new hydraulic and electric system. The DP-1, in addition, has more powerful engines (PT-6A-121), new avionics and other little changes as electric trims and similar. It's still under certification by RAI (Italian Aeronautical Registry) and FAA (Federal Avaiation Association).Features Clickable Dynamic Photoreal VC with non-planar throttle quadrant.

A.Software Requirements

To use this plane you NEED :

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002\2004 (not tested on FS2002, but should work...)
Winzip

Installation:

simply decompress in your FS 2002 or FS 2004 main directory. That's it! Select aircraft, then Piaggio, P-166DP-1, Done!

NOTES FOR fs2002 USERS:

Fs2002 standard users should change the sound.cfg file located in [FS2002]\aircraft\P166DL3_Special\Sound, editing with notepad: opening the file, you find:

[fltsim]
alias=beech_king_air_350\sound

Now change with:

[fltsim]
alias=c208\sound

if you don't do so, you'll hear no sounds for the plane....
