Beechcraft A80 Queen Air - Peruvian Air Force
---------------------------------------------

Microsoft Flight Simulator 98 + Flight Shop Converter 98 required

Overview:
---------
In 1965, the Peruvian Air Force (FAP) purchased a number of the classic
Beechcraft A80 Queen Air, to be used as liaison, utility, advanced training
and surveillance roles. These aircraft remained in service until mid 90s.
This particular aircraft shows the camouflage used during the 80s and early
90s, when the paint scheme was changed back to a white/blue scheme, before
the aircraft were finally retired from service. Today only one of these
unforgettable planes is still flying for the civilian aviation school.


Installation:
-------------
Create a folder with a name of your choice (e.g. A80), and unzip the files
there. Make sure you have checked the option "Use folder names" in Winzip.

Other recommended files:
------------------------
I highly recommend to use the excellent A80 Queen Air panel by Michael
Tscherdantzew (a80pnl.zip).

I have also made an A80 sound package, available as a80snd.zip, which you
can also use together with this aircraft for better realism.

Other versions of peruvian A80s were done by Sergio Kaiser, and you can find
them at his excellent web page:

Copyrights:
-----------
The original model was designed by Shlomo Hakim. I have done some work on
the textures and repainted the aircraft in the Peruvian Air Force camouflage
used by most peruvian military aircraft during the 80s.

Happy flying,
