Web support whith last minute news, eventual fixes and users comments on new ways of using the tower.

Use the AI Map for surprising and efficient ground traffic control and Radar for air traffic.
Soon all the traffic connected with my new apllications: ron’s AI Traffic Utilities" to be published in April.

What's new in Version II
_________________________

New rotating engine rotates the tower for a cockpit full 360ª View on 5 different levels or with the virtual one.
Completely re-design of the Main panel for a more professional look and new 7 panels for other views.
Now listed as Mobile Tower in the planes list with 1 to 5 levels variation.
The tower moves easily and rapidly from one level to another without FS2002 reloading scenery textures, and others.
Traffic AI remains active.
Revolutionary rotating and positioning engines by Rob Barendregt !Inclusion of Rodolfo Arata’s great AI Map.
Precise and exact "GoodYear Blimp" view for AFCAD designer.
Use Kneeboard with AITraffic schedules for present airport.

Goes on with............
_________________________

Control the incoming and outgoing traffic on your RADAR screen (thanks to the Eric MARCIANO’s great Radar gauge) listen simultaneously to both Tower and Ground Radios, watch outside temperature and winds.
All on your tower panel. Even an elevator (fictuous) correct position.
For AFCAD designer, a great tool to check the exact situation o gates, taxiways, runways, a.s.o with the ground “rondo” really taking place. See detail of exact runway line from the 1st Floor or the general and panoramic view of your 3 overlays from the 5th Floor
For the AI traffic builders and Traffic Tools users: the best way to check your complete traffic, seeing as aircrafts park, roll or take off and lands with the “TRAFFIC ACCELERATOR” (up to 4x) and 2 watches with real and GMT times.

This is a complete new Control tower and does not need the previous version which was downlaoded by more than 2.000 time in less than 3 days! Also see more description in mctrrc69.zip. This new accesory is intended to be the most complete and useful FREEWARE Control Tower available at the moment for FS2002.

Ideas for use warmly welcome!!!!!!!!
____________________________________

There is still a lot more to be discovered in the new “Mobile Control Tower II. Many of the users will find things to do with this new accessory. Please let us know of any new idea of unsought use of the Mobile Control



HELP WANTED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
________________________________________

All those who have collaborated with this project are looking for FS2002 Planes or Helicopters designers or builders in order to find someone who could build a whatever object capable of going up and down with the use of a special Gauge in order to replace the sometimes “ridiculous” bus/trailer/truck or whatever. We like it as a “ mascot” but feel sorry for him when we see that poor vehicle desperately floating in the air with the “FOLLOW” option of the AI Map. So if somebody ready to help please contact at ronalito@teleline.es


Instalation
____________

Just unzip
“tower II.zip” into your Fs2002/Aircrafts Sub_Dir
A new aircraft will be created (Control Tower) with the 5 levels in “variations”
in your aircraft list in FS2000

“Gauges” into your Fs2002 Main directory (I Insist in you MAIN FS2002 Directory. (There are gauges su-dir which will be automatically created. )

note: most of the gauges used are standard MS FS2002 Standard Gauges and FS2K Concorde gauge.
Radar Gauge (Eric MARCIANO) should be downloaded from FlightSIM: rdrwdw.zip from 07/06/02.
All gauges used in this project are listed in the Gauges_List.xls included file
If you have in planes of you fleet the excellent 747 and 757 Panels by Jorge Salas, you already have these gauges installed.

The "old" only 13 daysold Mobile Tower 5 aircrafts should be eliminated from your aircrafts subdir and replaced by the new files.
This must be done manually or both old and new tower will show on your FS2002 aircrafts list.(and plenty of useless space wasted)


Conclusions
___________

I wish to thank the help of many flight simmers who enthusiastically have tried to build together with me a more professional looking accessory for FS2002.
Among them an especially warm thank to

Marvin Howell whose ideas have been the trigger for that second version and

Rob Barendregt for the Gauges he has build especially for this project. what a great Job Rob, again many thanks.
