Repaint by Chris Brisland e-mail stormpup@eagleskinner.com
Information:
A fictional repaint fir the Nemeth EC120, just for fun... THIS SKIN IS FOR THE EC120_pol VARIANT! The police one with the FLIR and NiteSun searchlight.
This skin represents a fictional "Flying Sherpa" heli service baced at Lukla, Nepal. The idea is to have a chopper that is capable of transporting small teams from Lukla to the Everest base camp. Now as this is a "small" helicopter, you will soon realise it's not for big teams of climbers and loads of freight. No - this chopper is ideal as a rapid reaction chopper. Equipped with a BIG searchlight, you can search for downed helicopters and drop off an emergency team or casevac the odd emergency case down from the hill.
You can install this texture in other folders, but you will not get the "big torch" or the FLIR
Note:
This skin has been made for the Nemeth payware EC120, but may well work on the freeware version available at Avsim.
How to install:
Locate your FS9 aircraft folder and then the folder for your EC 120 - it will be something like 'c:\program files\microsoft games\flight simulator 9\Aircraft\Ec120_pol'
Extract this zip file 'Texture.lukla' to your '......\Aircraft\Ec120_pol' folder.
Open the aircraft.cfg file in the Ec120b folder - double clicking the file name will usually open it in windows editor.
Scroll down the page until you find the last block of aircraft code - these blocks all start with the line [fltsim.X] where the x in this case is the last number already in the cfg file.
Now copy the lines below and paste them into the aircraft.cfg file BELOW the last aircraft block of lines - and change the x in this new block to the next number up.
Open FS9 and go flying...
