Installation:
1)After downloading the zip, locate it, and extract the file to a temp folder.
2)Copy Folder Cessna_T182T to your FS2004 Aircraft Folder
3)Everything should be in the right place, But I always check just to make sure.
4)copy gauges into your FS2004 Gauges Folder. You may already have some of them, so you don't have to overwrite or reload them. Choice is yours
5)Aircraft will show up as Cessna/T-182-T Skylane
Known Problems:
I could not figure out how or if it was possible to make the gauges in the VC
the same as my panel so until this can be resolved the VC has the default configuration.
Thanks and Credits:
I would like to apologize for not listing all the wonderful gauge programmers, without whom, no aircraft panel would be possible. I have downloaded literally hundreds of panels in search of the gauges I feel best fit any particular application, so I forget who all the credit for such gauges should go to!. If you see something and feel you should be given the gauge credit for it, please contact me and I will amend this readme.
