The most successful manufacturing company in the airline industry, Boeing, made it happen once again a couple of years ago, with its new Boeing 737-800, the first Boeing in the 737 family to integrate winglets. The aircraft shown here is a fictional repaint in Olympic Airways (upcoming Olympic Airlines) colours, under the Athens 2004 livery. There is already a 737-400 of OAL that is flying on another Athens 2004 livery scheme, but this one just made it happen! This aircraft was flown by the Captain Aristeides Latousakis (IVAO ID 127495, VATSIM 834198) from KLGB to KJFK, refuelled and then flew to LPPT, and after this last refuelling stop arrived to OAL hub at LGAV airport, to commence commercial services.\/The aircraft repaint is based on the FlightFX Boeing 738WL aircraft. All credits go to them apart from the repaint!\/Safe Landings ;-)
This aircraft took about 13.5 flying hours to arrive from KLGB-KJFK-LPPT-LGAV, 3 hours of ATC services online on IVAO, and another 28 working hours to complete the repaint (3 paper filters for coffee makers, 1.5 jar of coffee, 1 can of evaporated milk by Tesco, 1 computer restart, loads of swearing at my Photoshop's filters, one overnight stay, and 6 Panadol Actifast (try them, they are really good!).
That means:
1. NOONE has the right to modify the aircraft model without the written permission of FlightFX.
2. NOONE has the right to mess with this texture unless my permission is granted (please do not make me feel like I wasted all these working hours)
3. Fly high, and land safe!
INSTALLATION of the Aircraft:
That's the easy part. extract the files to your FS2002/FS2004 Aircraft directory, making sure to retain installation paths. Then start your Flight Sim. Then fly!
INSTALLATION of the panel:
Once you have installed the aircraft, go check the \Panel\ directory of it. Open the other zip now, and extract all the files from the gauges.zip to your main GAUGES folder, all the files from panel.zip to your 737-800 Panel folder, and teh 2 wav files to your main FS200X sound folder. Otherwise, just leave it as it is, and play with the default B737 panel (but it sucks in comparison with this one!)
