FS2002 Panel Package for Helio Super Courior
Created by Fred Choate
*****CREDITS*******
Fred Banting for his Beaver Gauges. And Steven Grant for doing a bit of repainting of Fred's gauges to suite the Helio numbers.
Yannick Lavigne for his outstanding graphics, for which I modeled the views on. In fact, most of the credit should go to Yannick, as I mostly just cut and pasted what he had already created, and did some relcoloring. Thank you Yannick.
HGHB for the Transponder gauge that I used.
FB Gauges
*******ABOUT THIS PANEL*******
A few things about this panel. The main panel bitmap was created using an old photo from an actual Helio 295. It is as close as I can get it from the photos that I had. I had to take a few liberties with gauges and gauge placement to make it compatible with the FS2000, and since I am not a gauge designer, I rely on gauges from the default folder, and those which are already created. THANKS TO ALL THOSE DEVELOPERS!!!!!
Now, the views that are included are simply modified views from the Fred Banting/Yannick Lavigne Beaver package. I couldn't track down any photos to work from for the inside of the Helio, so I was simply guessing about the interior. I figured that there were certainly similarities with that of the Beaver, as they are used in similar situations. So PLEASE DON'T THINK THAT THE INTERIOR VIEWS ARE ACTUAL REPRESENTATIONS OF A REAL HELIO.
Steven Grant has created a checklist from actual documentation of the Helio, and we tried to accomedate all the aspects of the checklist into the panel, so you should be able to run the checklist just as if in real life.
*******INSTALL*********
Only use this section if you have this Panel.zip as a seperate file. It should already be installed in the Helio automatically with the installation of the plane, however, I do sometimes release the panel seperatley, so I include an install.
To install, simply extract the contents of this archive into the panel folder of your choice. Then take the GAUGES.ZIP archive and extract it into the MAIN FS2000 GAUGE folder.
You should be good to go.
Please respect that this is FREEWARE, and NOT TO BE INCLUDED ON ANY COMPILATION CD, or DISTRIBUTED FOR ANY KIND OF PROFIT. FEEL FREE TO UPLOAD IT TO YOUR WEBSITES IN ITS ORIGINAL, UNALTERED STATE.
