*****************************this pack**************************************************

Before you install the shuttle you have to assemble the component parts of the four files Columbia2k21.zip (file 1) and Columbia2k22.zip (this file) Columbia2k23.zip (file 3) and Columbia2k24.zip (file 4) unzip all four into a temporary folder and then open Columbia2k22/3/4 folders and move the Columbia2k2 folders from files 2,3,4 into Columbia2k21 folder when asked to overwrite do so, nothing will be lost in this. Then follow the below steps.
Instalation of this file is simple ater you have un-zipped it
*****Instalation******
just drop the contents of the aircraft folder in to your FS2002 Aircraft folder and the contents of the gauges folder into your FS2002 gauges folder and the contents of the effects folder into the FS2002 effects folder, you are now ready to explore the upper atmosphere in the Space Shuttle. i have encluded a basic exhaust flame effect from a modified CFS2 fireball effect. and the contents of the flights folder into the FS2002 FLights folder and the contents of the sound folder into the FS2002 Sound folder.

i have included the flights as there were some requests for them in the last relese so here they are. i recomend you do the practice landing missions before commiting to a full blown flight. and read the flight manual before flyiny it will give you some insite on flying this craft as it can have a nasty bite at times.

****************************Known Issues**********************************************

the contrails and engine exhaust effects come from the center of the shuttle (its center of Gravity) despite numerous attempts at fixing this it seems impossible anyone help with this?!
i do not claim to have the shuttle flight dynamics on the nail or even close, i simply made it so piloting it was enjoyable and practical in Flight Simulatior.
streched textures in areas.
