HISTORY
I recommend a visit to Kristjan Runarsson's excellent site:
http://www.brushfirewars.org/aircraft/pzl_p24_greek/pzl_p24_greek.htm
INSTALATION:
Unzip into a temporary folder.
Place "pzl" into the CFS2/Aircraft folder.
Open the "Gauges" folder and copy/paste all instruments to the CFS2/gauges folder.
FLYING Tips:
TAKE OFF:
-Advance throttle slowly if you want to stay within the runway during take-off
FLYING:
-The aircraft is fully aerobatic and can perform the most complex aerobatic manouvers, spins, flat spins, etc
LANDING:
-THIS PLANE HAD (HAS) FLAPERONS. Use them to make your life easier during landings.
I couldn't find a clickable flap selector lever cockpit instrument close to the real one. Use your keyboard or joystick key to operate the flaps.
NOTE: flaperons will not extend if speed is over ~100 KIAS.
If you want to make a flapless landing slow down below 80KIAS and use a high AoA so you can establish 78KIAS and -350fpm descent rate. Adjust speed to 62KIAS "over the fence".
Visibility during landing either from 2d or VC is (was) bad. The real a/c had a pitch attitude instrument so the pilot could make a safe three point touch down. I substituted this with an angle of attack sensor. It does the same job if used in conjunction with the airspeed indicator and looks almost like the
real one.
Use brakes with caution.
Many thanks to:
-Jerry Beckwith for his Flight Model Workbook (used to create the flight model) and the AoA gauge.
-David Eckert for the pilot body
-Unknown MS artist for the pilot head/gloves, which come from the CFS3 SDK
-Bruno Duffort, Mathias Pomerrien, Gerard van der Harst, Paul Rebuffat for their work which inspired me to get involved with design.
-My virtual CFS/IL2FB squad (The 27th) mates who helped with beta testing.
-All people who ask and answer to the various design forums as well as those who were kind enough to publish tutorials and share their knowledge.
-I hope I didn't forgot someone!
