About the Aircraft
==================
Two of the world's premier research aircraft, the renowned NOAA WP-3D Orions, participate in a wide variety of national and international meteorological, oceanographic and environmental research programs in addition to their widely known use in hurricane research and reconnaissance. These versatile turboprop aircraft are equipped with an unprecedented variety of scientific instrumentation, radars and recording systems for both in-situ and remote sensing measurements of the atmosphere, the earth and its environment. Obtained as new aircraft from the Lockheed production line in the mid-70's, these robust and well maintained aircraft have led NOAA's continuing effort to monitor and study hurricanes and other severe storms, the quality of the atmosphere, the state of the ocean and its fish population, and climate trends.





About the Model
===============
The sixth P3 series of Team FS KBT produced WP-3D.
This model was made with GMAX. It is FS2004 exclusive use, and it is not possible to use it
with FS2002.



About the Animation
===================
Pressing SHIFT+E opens the door, "WINGFOLD" drops the stairs. It is advisable to close the door when the stairs are extended as it looks much better this way! Lower side radome is lowered are assigned to the "Concorde Visor". But you can operate these animations from the radio shack which we have provided you with.



About the VC
============
The idea of "Team Luis da Costa Pereira&Fabio Bonoldi" that overall cooperates in 2D panel production in this WP-3D will be fed back as it is, and the operation's doing becomes possible in VC.


About the Gauge
===============
2D Panel creating. by Team Luis da Costa Pereira & Fabio Bonoldi.
We wish to express my gratitude to them.

About the Lighting System
=========================
The lighting systems are accessed through the radio shack.
I have used XML so the outcome is more natural.
If you switch the LAND and TAXI light switch to "ON", they are linked to
the flaps and gear so they will TURN ON AUTOMATICALLY.
At the same time the "lighting effect" under the wings will be TURN ON.
This can be manually controlled also.



About the Panel

About the Sound
===============
The sound set used in this model is originally from Mike Hambly which was edited by Adrian Brausch as "LockheedP-3 Sound". Due to these great gentlemen, this model has come alive and I would like to thank them for creating such a great sound.

The sound file is not bundled. It is described that the data of p-3c_zip is used.


About the Repaint
=================
Color given in N42RF "Kermit"





An exhaust smoke effect recommends data of the following file name.
====================================================================

This necessary description is already completed in a CFG file.

"p-3smkup.zip"

In addition, as for aircraft.cfg and the air file which are data in "p-3smkup.zip", need is not.






May Happy day / 2005@@Team FS KBTiDaisuke, KBT, syunpy) and Team Luis da Costa Pereira & Fabio Bonoldi(2D Panel)
