THIS IS A FREEWARE PANEL
*************************
I designed this panel for use in the S-61N Helicopter designed by Dave Hardcastle.

This panel was made by Lynn Rogers. The panel was designed from a photograph of the Sikorsky S-61N intrument panel. This panel allows for forward viewing from the pilots viewing perspective. Certain gauges could not be duplicated at this time so I used a photo image in its place, other gauges come close or are actual replicas of the original ones. The panel was tested and appears to be working well in fs2002 Pro.

I have set the pilots view at 8.0 in the panel.cfg file, you can change this number to any value which fits your need for viewing. The higher the number the lower the nose of the helicopter becomes.This will allow you to continue flying without having to constantly change your setting with "shift+enter" or "shift+backspace".

Landing Gear Operation:
The landing gear is operated by the lever on the panel, your joystick, or keyboard command.

Gear Up:
Press which ever one you use then press the pause key, wait until the two middle red lights in the middle of the gear selector go out and press pause again. The top 4 blue lights will come on and the gear is now fully retracted and locked in place.

Gear Down:
Press the gear switch and then pause, wait until the two middle red lights go out and press the pause key again. The top blue and bottom yellow lights will come on and the gear is now fully extended and locked in place.

Shift+1 allows the Main panel
Shift+2 allows for Radio's
Shift+3 allows for GPS
