This aircraft is for FS2002 only, the GMAX model will not be displayed in previous versions of MSFS. To install the aircraft, unzip the archive to "Aircraft" folder of your FS2K2 main directory. Then go to Select Aircraft menu and choose "Aircraft manufacturer - Ilyushin".
You can use it in AI traffic with all animation and effects, the frame rate is friendly.
The aircraft is FREEWARE.
Thanks to Chris, Milan Lisner, and freeflightdesign.com for useful hints and tips.
If you want to repaint the aircraft, you will need DXTBmp by Martin Wright and/or "ImageTool" from gmax package to convert the textures from/to DXT3 format.
Notes:
- NK-86 engine has no visible thrust reverser parts, they all are hidden inside
- actually there are 3 lower deck doors, but tail door is not animated
- no cargo bays are animated, use Shift-E-2 to open lower deck doors with built-in stairs
