After the previous experience with the B757 panel, I vowed never to make a panel again for FS2002 because the people do not read the README file and then they moan about this and that instead of flying the plane and delete the flippen panel if it aggravates them!
Let me explain something about panel creators like myself:
I'm not skilled in gauge programming or fancy bmp's for the use of panels but I do know how to edit and make use of programs like PSP and Panel Studio. Therefore I'm constantly re-creating other people's hard work to something that I like. From time to time, I will then upload a panel for the use of other people's joy and fun and because as you all know ... FLIGHTSIM is not a HOBBY it's a damn OBSESSION!
In other words: I make the coffee and decide how and what flavor of coffee I will use, how much cream will go in and how much sugar ... I do not make the coffee beans or cream or sugar.
So here is another one of those panels - I did not write to every single creator from which I got this because half of the time they do not even bother to answer you. So I give full credit to everyone who made this panel possible. And if you feel for some reason exluded from 'everybody' then it includes you. Let me start:
I thank ...
The dear Lord for the house I'm living in.
Blauch & Becker for my chair.
Mother nature for the wood of my table.
Mecer for the computer.
Microsoft for Windows XP and FS2002.
PSP for a helping tool.
Panel Studio for making it all too easy.
I've edited the following people's panels:
Jim Waters - 1more737.zip
Nicola Cassanello - 732adv.zip
Fabrizio Berretta - fab737.zip (who got it from Richard Probst, Staffan Ahlberg Paul Golding, Olav M. Ronningen, Marcello Lugari)
Medi D. Handoeran - p737mx.zip
And if I skipped one who added his or hers pixel - then I give full credit to you.
Regarding the GAUGES:
It was done by various people and the only reason why they were all renamed is for the simple fact so that you could delete them easily if you don't like them or if the panel gives you hassles. I repeat: I DID NOT MAKE THEM.
Regarding the SOUND that comes with certain GAUGES:
I'm not aware of any.
To install:
Simply copy the content of the PANEL folder to the plane you would like this panel to show up and the content of the GAUGES folder to the MAIN FS2002 GAUGES folder. That's it. Now even Mickey could do that, so everybody else can as well!
Last but not least ... this panel is now your property seeing that it was uploaded to PUBLIC DOMAIN on the Internet. You can do whatever you like with it. Sell it, make money with it, edit it, give it to a friend or delete it as long as you know you have the permission of the names mentioned above and NOT ME. I can not give you any permission for any thing so don't ask me. As far as I'm concern ... it's yours!
If you, however, do have a small problem with the panel, I will gladly try to help and fix it. Therefore you could e-mail me and time permitted I will answer as soon as possible.
Now go and fly the thing!
Enjoy!

PS: If you missed anything and before you mail me ... please read it again from the top! If you feel I did not give credit to other people's work ... please refer to section I THANK ... and GAUGES - if you still feel that I did not give you enough credit then here it comes again: I REALLY THANK YOU. THANK YOU.
