Dedicated to all the great freeware/shareware contributors to flightsim
who have made this a fantastic simulation and the endless amount of
assistance provided to me over the years from the flight-sim list.


Introduction
-------------
I am pleased to announce my first contribution to the Flight Simulator
Global Network, the photorealistic sailplane panel.

The panel is based on the glider/sailplane I fly here in Australia.
The glider is a 2 seater Blanik model.



Installation
-------------
The file setup is as follows:

glider.bmp <> FlightSimulator\Aircraft\FSFSConv\Glider

panel.cfg <> FlightSimulator\Aircraft\FSFSConv\Glider

panel_2.cfg <>
<>FlightSimulator\Aircraft\Schweizr



Detailed description
--------------------
In FSFSConv create a folder called Glider.
Move all the files (panel.cfg and glider.bmp) into the folder.

Use the normal methods to select a panel for a particular plane.



Installing the panel on the default Schweizr
---------------------------------------------
If you need to use this panel on the default Schweizr follow the
instructions below:

The Schweizr by Microsoft has its own panel installed in the aircrafts
directory.

You therefore need to rename the panel folder something like gliderpanel_2 and move it to your FSFSConv folder so it can remain there as another panel choice.

eg.

flightsimutlator\aircraft\Schweizr\panel

RENAME

flightsimutalor\aircraft\FsFsConv\Glider_2

THEN

Create a panel folder in the Schweizr directory.

eg.

flightsimutlator\aircraft\Schweizr\panel

Copy the file called panel_2.cfg that I have provided to this directory.

Rename it panel.cfg.

You can now fly your glider with the photorealistic panel.
