FS2002 TAP Air Portugal Boeing 727-200 by David Brightwell.

TAP Air Portugal operated the 727 extensively throughout Europe, and also to Madeira and the Azores. This aircraft, CS-TBS, was named 'Lisboa' after the capital. The airline now operates an all-Airbus fleet.

NOTE: This model was designed for FS2000. As a result, some of the night fuselage textures are not compatible with FS2002, and result in black triangular patches on the tail at night. It is not a repaint problem, it is a model problem.

NOTE: If the cockpit windows appear to be covered in newspaper, it is because the pilots were being dazzled by the landing lights. If you switch the landing lights off, the newspapers will be taken down.

The aircraft is best enjoyed with a proper 727 panel and appropriate sound. Chris Arrington / Richard Probst panel is highly recommended, as is the sound by Daniel Careri. Only default 737 panel/sound is included in this download.

Many thanks to Kevin Trinkle/Garry Carlson for designing such an excellent and realistic model. I tried to contact Kevin for permission to upload this repaint, but he does not apparently respond to flightsim emails.
