ESPAÑOL:
En 1997/98 Iberia alquiló un L-1011 (EI-CNN) a TBG Aviation, lo regresó y alquiló otro (TF-ABM) a Air Atlanta. Hasta donde sé, éstos han sido los dos unicos L-1011 que ha tenido, y por dos o tres meses en total.
Revisando en la red, estaba seguro que Manolo Machuca habría hecho un repaint del L-1011 en colores de Iberia, pero no lo ví por ninguna parte. Hay un repaint del L-1011 en colores de Iberia hecho por Alfonso Bello en Febrero del 98, pero no tiene partes móviles y la verdad, ha habido muchas mejoras en modelado desde 1998.
Normalmente hago un solo repaint por archivo, pero el EI-CNN real fué pintado "a la carrera", por lo que preferí juntar los dos L-1011 en un solo archivo.
Panel: No está incluído. Puede conseguir uno en la red o renombrar panel2.cfg como panel.cfg para usar el default del 747.
ENGLISH
In 1997/98 Iberia leased an L-1011 (EI-CNN) from TBG Aviation, returned it and soon leased another (TF-ABM) from Air Atlanta. So Iberia had two L-1011 but not at the same time, and each one for a few months.
I was sure that I would find in the web an Iberia's L-1011, but there was only one in FS98 format, without moving parts. I usually include only one repaint by file, but in this case the real EI-CNN had a simple painting scheme, so I prefired to include both L-1011 in only one file.
The panel is not included. You can install one or rename panel2.cfg as panel.cfg to use with the default 747.

Warranty:
I love the warranty writen by Andrew W. Hall:
"None. Zip. Nada. Use at your own risk. I dont think
this will harm your computer in any way, but if it does, I
dont even want to hear about it."
A last remark: Why don't become a repainter? There are a lot of planes with special markings. I'm tired either the usual F-16 low-vis scheme, or the usual 757 in Delta markings. Why don't a Tornado Tiger Meet or a serie of Easy Jet's 737s? The plane modelers like Mike Stone are very important, but they can't make all the painting schemes by themselves. So why don't help them?
Installation:
Just unzip l1011ah9.zip in your "Aircraft" folder of FS2002, install your desired panel and that's all.
