FS9 / FSX CONCORDE 2011 VERSION. Includes: new model, textures, and flight dynamics; sound (MR. KALON JEFFRIES), panel, effects and gauges (MR. FRANCISCO SILVA, LIBARDO GUZMAN), VC, passenger's views, full animated parts, clickable gauges on VC (all in FS9, some in FSX). I have tried to reproduce this engineer masterpiece, meaning a tribute to its designers. Note: this version doesn´t replace previous versions and their textures won´t fit this model. I would appreciate some help with braking SOUND BARRIER and WINGS´ VAPOR EFFECTS.

INSTALLATION (FOR FS9 AND FX):

- This version will be despalyed under "1 GUZMAN ARTES".

- Copy te folder "1 CONCORDE COLLECTION" into your main "aircraft" folder (FS) or "Airplanes (FSX)

- Open the folder "FILES FOR CONCORDE"

- Open the folder called "EFFECTS": copy the four files into your fs "EFFECTS" folder (for any version you are using), replacing files when requested.

- Open the folder called "GAUGES": copy the four files into your fs "GAUGES" folder (for any version you are using), replacing files when requested.

- IMPORTANT: You need to go cockpit view first; if not, smoke effects won't appear.

- MAY IN SOME CASES IF YOU LOAD THIS CONCORDE WHEN RUNING FS, ZOOM OVER EXTERNAL VIEW WILL NOT WORK PROPERLYFIRST; to fix it, YOU MUST LOAD A STOCK AIRPLANE AND LET THE SIMULATOR RUN. CHANGE VIEW TO COCKPIT AND THEN TO EXTERNAL; AFTER THAT YOU CAN LOAD THIS CONCORDE.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CONTROLS:

-Full animated parts, using tipical commands:
-Extend landing lights, press your spoiler command.
-Open/close cabin door, press your TAILHOOK command.
-Passenger door: press ""SHIFT+E".
-Other doors: press ""SHIFT+E+2".
-Extending nose "F7" once, and visor for taking off and first aproaching procedure (not faster than 325): press "F7"again.
-Extending nose for landing: press "F8" (full flaps) once (no faster than 270).
-Crew's movements can be seen on exterior view and VC by animating rudder and landing gear.
-Reverse: press "F2" just after touching.
-Use "CTRL+J" and turn off engines to activate airports'service vehicles when parking.

-You must practice flying this plane, specially for landing. Don't try to do it from cokpit, because won't see the runway on final approach; do it from VC mode, using zoom as desired.
-Trim will help you to keep right angle while flying (first time to do it will be after taking off.....); use it as I suposse it will be in real, to keep gravity center leveled while fuel is displaced front / back.........

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

You'll find I made 10 virtual functional surfaces for VC cockpit:

P1 - UPPER PANEL
P2 - UPPER PANEL
P3 - UPPER PANEL
P4 - COMPASS
P5 - MAIN PANEL
P6 - MAIN PANEL
P7 - MAIN PANEL
P8 - MAIN PANEL
P9 - CENTRAL PEDESTAL
P10 - CENTRAL PEDESTAL

They are all capable to be worked from panel.cfg to install functional gauges.
