FS2004 Republic F-84G Thunderjet

Version 1.0

By Jens B. Kristensen 2006

The F-84 Thunderjet was one of the most important western fighters of the 1950's. It was produced in very large numbers, had a distinguished carreer with the USAF in Korea as a fighter-bomber, and was for a number of years the main equipment of many NATO air forces.

Two paint jobs included: An F-84G of the USAF, Korea 1953, and an F-84G of the Royal Danish Air Force, 1955.

Please read the documentation before you fly - available in the \Docs folder of your \JBK F84G aircraft.

Gauges:

I have, with permission, used a set of F-80C Shooting Star gauges by Bruce Thorsen. Thanks!

Other gauges are by myself, or standard Microsoft gauges with a few modifications. I have included a few unmodified Microsoft gauges in my F84G.cab as well.

The Autopilot control is by myself, but I used the Douglas DC-3 autopilot by Microsoft as my starting point. I have also studied the autopilot-work of other freeware developers, notably Saviero MaurrisÂ’ autopilot for the De Havilland Dove (the turn button!)

----

Installation: Just run the included setup program

----

A note to repainters: I have used many, many hours to make this plane look the way I want it to, so if you want to make a repaint of it, please don't change the base textures, just add your own national & other markings to it. You can add camouflage, dirt, scratches and so on if you know the original aircraft had them.

A 'paint kit' (photoshop format) is included with this package!

----

This plane was made with FSDS 3.0. It is freeware and must stay that way.

Good luck flying the Thunderjet!
