ATR72-500 for FS2002, by Francisco Sánchez-Castañer.
Manual/checlist for ATR72-500, by Werner Schott.
---------------------
ATR72-500 version 1 in Iberia Regional / Air Nostrum colors. Designed by F. Sánchez-Castañer for FS2002 Professional Edition (Works with limited functionality in standard edition). Includes virtual cockpit, highly realistic custom panels and gauges with non-standard functions tailor made to match the real aircraft systems, custom sounds. Included in this package is also a manual/checklist by Werner Schott.
INSTALLATION:
You should have a basic idea of the flight simulator files and folders structure in order to perform the installation. Remember one thing: if you are prompted to overwrite a file, don't do it unless you are 100% sure what you're doing (maybe you made a mistake and are about to delete your favourite plane, so don't do it).
Unzip the contents of aircraft.zip into your fs2002\aircraft folder, keeping the original folder names (use the option "keep folder names"in WinZip).
Extract the contents of gauges.zip into your fs2002\gauges folder. Overwrite files if asked; this archive contains some updtes to my previous ATR42- 300 and 500, mainly the autopilot.
IMPORTANT: INSIDE THIS ARCHIVE THERE ARE THRESS CABINET FILES CONTINING GAUGES (.cab extension may be hidden in your system). DO NOT DE-COMPRESS THEM!!!
DO NOT EXTRACT THE FILES INSIDE THEM!!!
JUST COPY THE FILE INTO THE GAUGES FOLDER, *****AS STATED ABOVE******. FS2002 WILL TAKE CARE OF FINDING TEH BMP AND XML INSIDE IT.
IF YOU DECOMPRESS IT, MOST PROBABLY HALF OF THE GAUGES WILL BE MISSING IN YOUR PANEL.
Go to the Docs folder, double-click on file "ATR42.htm" and read it carefully. Aircraft systems and other details are described there. The gauges, are programmed to accurately reproduce the real aircraft; please read carefully the documentation before contacting for help. If you still have some question, I regularly visit teh Flight Simulator Forum at Avsim. I highly recommend visiting this forum. If you still dont get an answer to your question, my e-mail address is at the end of this document. Be patient, it might take a long time to get an answer via e-mail.
Included in this package is a file named manatr725.zip . This file contains the manual/checklist by Werner Schott. Unzip the contents of this file to a folder of you choice. The checklist can be printed for more realistic simulation.
