Amelia Earhart's L10E Electra is the result of customizing, upgrading and optimizing Arik Hohmeyer's excellent Lockheed L10E from FS-Design Berlin.



BACKGROUND
==========

The goal of this project was to create an L10E with specifications and features as close as possible to Amelia Earhart's L10E. While this aircraft can be flown in any situation, the primary intent is to fly it in the commemorative of Amelia Earhart's 1937 World Flight.

The commemorative of Earhart's 1937 World Flight is posted on the major archives. Search "Earhart" to find it.



INSTALLATION
============

This procedure will install two L10E's into your fs9 Aircraft Folder. One with a Sperry Autopilot, the other with the more-modern Bendix autopilot. There are also some other panel differences.

The installation is a simple, one-step procedure.

Download "l10eae01.zip" to a temporary folder. Then extract the files (2) to the same temporary folder.

1 ... "Readme_Earhart_L10E.txt" ... this document.

2 ... "Amelia_Earhart_L10E.exe" ... the program file.

Using Windows Explorer, double-click the file name "Amelia_Earhart_L10E.exe" and then follow the on-screen instructions.

Your installation is now complete!

The two fs9 Aircraft folders are named;

L10E_FSDB_Modern

L10E_FSDB_Sperry

The Instruction manual, "Electra_Getting_Started.html" is located in the folder

"_Electra_Instruction_Manual"

If you open the main fs9 root folder, "Flight Simulator 9" this folder will be at or very near the top.

Open the Instruction manual either with your browser or by double-clicking the filename with Windows Explorer.


UNINSTALLING
============
See the Instruction Manual for the one-step procedure to uninstall this aircraft.
