Sim: Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002/2004
1) The Aircraft.cfg and the .Air file should be used together They aren,t the same as the default. The .Air and Aircraft cfg. is from the Flight Dynamics package 2003 for 2002 Aircrafts from: Touradg Morassaei Feb 8 2003
2) I have found that The flight dynamics in 2004 are a little different as far as I know just from regular take offs and Landings, it seems to need about 100 knots at Landing instead of the 90 knots. Other Than that it seems to fly just fine.
3) If you want to add the panel to other Aircraft and to be able to use the Autothrottle you have to Modify the Aircraft.cfg to look like what is below Must Change lines with (*) without the * thing. You Can just copy and paste with the mouse.
[autopilot]
autopilot_available=1
flight_director_available=1
default_vertical_speed=700.0
autothrottle_available=1 *
pitch_takeoff_ga=8.000000
use_no_default_pitch=1//0=Default to current pitch mode, 1=No default pitch mode. *
use_no_default_bank=1//0=Default to Wing Leveler mode, 1=No default bank mode. *
autothrottle_arming_required=1 *
autothrottle_takeoff_ga=0
autothrottle_max_rpm=105.000000 *

4) One Of the best things I have found is that I have always hated the taxi speed of the any and all of the aircraft is the inability to be able to taxi at a constant speed without going 180kts! that is not at all real life like. So I decided to put the Tachometer in the spotview it worked okay! but it still is very hard to taxi at a constant speed. So then I decided to try the Autothrottle! Wow! it really Works!
I can set it at 5 kts and just wait about 30 seconds and it will slowly increase the speed to 4 kts and it will stay that way. It Really flipped My Happy Trigger!

5) When I was Painting the Baron I just copied the 2002 Aircraft and put it into fs2004
So I really don't know if that effected The Aircraft in anyway probably not! they look the same. So anyway
6) The Making of the Panel was started When I was Using the POSKY 747-400 and Every time
I wanted to change the Auto Pilot I would Have to go inside the Aircraft and change like the speed or Altitude that was just fine I had to wait until the textures came back, Then what really pissed me off more was then it was blurry! again then had to Zoom in a few times to fix it I was really getting to me! So that is when I put all of the instruments that I needed in the spotview, So then I will almost never have to go inside the Aircraft at all!
7) As far as Editing other Panels to put My instruments in the spot Views, all I really have to say is it's not all that hard, until something don't work. I have used The Autobrakes as an Example to help a few people that need help. You can almost put any instrument that is in the gauges folder into the spot view all you have to do is name it correctly and call it up.
The one thing that I don't really understand yet is the gauges that are in the zip files. But I have done it once.
window26=Autobrakes In the Instrument Window, What You Named the gauge! the #26 is just the next window available.
[Window26] The Window #26 must match!
file=Autobrakes.bmp What You Named the gauge! and .bmp
size_mm=40,40 The size Length and width that you want the gauge!
position=0 position you want the gauge 1-6 to show up
visible=0 don't know Me?
ident=Autobrakes ident when you use your mouse the yellow tag!
gauge00=747digab!Autobrakes Switch, 0, 0, 40,40 gauge #00 through infinity, 0,0, is the location in your panel but
but since it is floating just 0,0 and then the 40, 40 is the size again
8) Also if you are taking off you can set the take off speed of 136 kts and it slowly increases your speed it kind of really feels like you are taking off because it's a slow increase and it takes a little work to begin flying not just pop up off the ground.
9) I Also like using the Auto-throttle when landing because I've really flown and normally you use the tachometer and the pitch for your airspeed but I think that it doesn't feel real
on the computer and probably isn't as accurate as real flight. but One thing I do know is that if you are flying you Must fly the right Airspeed like best angle Vx or rate Vy and
When using the auto-trottle just seems to me to work better to fly correct Airspeeds.

11) For getting Weather reports go to www.Weather.com and www.CNN.com/Weather
12)I was also thinking of using flightsimulator as a tool to learn and teach flight in instrument conditions and was going to try and use the actual FAA test Exam to simulate the test and Make like Excercises: but I have only read a test ? and just don't know if it will be practical Any ideas? e-mail me
