*****ENSURE FSX SPI IS INSTALLED. Built with FSDS, this model was compiled with FS2004 SDK and problems had been noted with VC and landing lights in FSX. Additional VC lighting has been added to overcome the former issue, and requires cockpit lighting to be switched on at all times. FSX SP1 has resolved the landing light issue; if not installed, the landing lights will not illuminate the ground. *****

1. Copy both of the folders, Grizzly_Armed_FSX and Grizzly_Unarmed_FSX, into the Airplanes folder (found inside SimObjects), within FSX.

2. Copy the contents of the folder named Add_to_FSX_effects_folder, into your main effects folder within FSX. If prompted to overwrite existing files, choose not to do so.

3. Copy the contents of the folder named Add_to_FSX_sound_folder, into your main sound folder within FSX.

4. Start FSX. In the aircraft selection screen, aircraft will show up under manufacturer "BAS"; alternately, ensure Check All Variants is enabled at the main screen (thumbnails are included). Both F-220 and CF-220 aircraft are available as aircraft model, with paint schemes and armament options being provided.

5. (OPTIONAL) I've experimented with adding freeware radar gauges (not included) with very pleasing results in both FS9 and FSX. The VC panel has been modified with additional planars to accommodate this feature, if desired. Simply copy & paste the following lines within the panel.cfg, at the end of [Vcockpit02] entries:

gauge14=GAUGENAME!Radar, 470,640,150,108
gauge15=GAUGENAME!Radar Mode, 670,680,20,19
gauge16=GAUGENAME!Radar Range, 670,710,15,20

(Where GAUGENAME = substitute name of radar gauge being used)

If you have any problems installing, please drop me a line (contact below). Any feedback is warmly welcomed.
