This is a correction of my last update for both FS 9 and FSX of the FS 9 Firefox 2 by Owen Smoot, painted by Kurt Beswick. I did not have the change to the afterburners in the files I previously uploaded. I also forgot to include a gauge with the FSX panel. Sorry for any problems this has caused. This is the whole aircraft again with the changes, so you don't need anything previous to this for this to work.

unzip to a folder of your choice. Copy the aircraft to the FS aircraft or airplanes folder.

FS9 copy both the gauges and effects to the FS gauges and effects folders.

FSX: copy the effects to the main FS effects folder and copy the FSXpanel folder to the aircraft folder. Delete the panel folder and rename the FSXpanel folder to panel.

See [reference speeds] section of the aicraft.cfg file for operating speeds.

THIS AIRCRAFT IS NOT GUARANTEED TO WORK PERFECTLY IN FSX.

Tips to properly get to 80,000 ft. Set 450 on the autopilot as well as 80,000 ft. After take off, turn the autopilot on and hit the speed button if you did not already have it on. If you are flying GPS, stay at 4x time compression or below, until you are climbing on the GPS course. Then you can go to 8x, or 16x time compression if you wish to. At 16x time compression the autopilot will not keep course PERFECTLY; but close enough. When between 30,000 and 40,000 feet cut the climb rate from 3,000 ft per minute to 2,000 ft. per minute. After reaching 80,000 feet, dial the speed back to 410 from the 450 start speed.

To come down, make sure you slow down to 300 knots or less before you start your decent.
