Photo realistic instrument panel for de Havilland Canada DHC-8 Dash8.

Panel designed specially for the Dash 8 Series 100 that comes as default in FS2002 Professional Edition, but it can be used for any twin turbo prop aircraft. It uses only native gauges and must be used in 1024x768 resolution for best readability.

A modified config file for the Dash 8 is included (aircraft.cfg) to take full advantage of the panel's features. A copy of the original photograph (Dash8real.jpg) is also included.

Instructions:

1) Extract the panel bitmap and panel config files into the Dash 8 panel folder.

2) Extract the aircraft config file into the Dash 8 main folder.

NOTE: Always BACK-UP the files you overwrite!

Acknowledgements:

Panel created with FS Panel Studio based on a real Dash 8 flight deck photograph taken by Wasil Havlena (my thanks to Wasil for leting me use his photograph) slightly modified to fit some critical gauges without the need of opening different windows.
