Cool, nice Dash 8. It looks just like the real one I rode in a couple years, from Sun Airlines. I flew from Phoenix, Arizona to Carlesbad, California in it. I was on the right side, next to the engine. great flight too. _________________ "May your Enemys Run With Fear!!"

The links are just below the sound and panel links, in the middle dated May 9th.

Fled, each of the three "liveries" is a full package with model and textures: you have just to add the panel/gauges and sound packages to complete them - it works quite the same as the Twin Otter (same developers). Apparently it's a bit tricky, and the plenty of install explanations gets the whole matter even more confusing, but it work, oh if it works! Marco

small addition to previous post

having sorted the stuff out and installed, must admit that it's quite a challenge for the less puter specialists amongst us, so I'll tinker up an EZ-install for the complete pack, saves more than 11 mB of downloading ! Wink

total EZi pack now 18 mB and the security it will work when installed, one small thing that remains is that there are functions and gauges that require FSUIPC installed, dunno to what extent yet, but trying to figure that out.

Nice work and great find fellas...:D Fled, you should be able to include the required file in the 'readme'. We should also link up the FSUIPC file in the download section.

Fled, I just had a look at it, and read that FSUIPC is required to get the TCAS gauges working - they get displayed in a pop-up panel pressing Shift+8, or 9, I don't remember. If you don't install FSUIPC, TCAS simply doesn't work, but this doesn't affect the rest.

Lately I realized that, with FSUIPC installed, I get malfunctions on the altitude setting of the auto-pilot - of course, it might be only me - but given this, I give up the TCAS (which, in brackets, I neither know what's made for): after all, there's already enough stuff on that panel to twist my mind without any need to get things harder Wink

Apart from that, this Dash-8 is sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!
Cool

S! I used to have quite a lot of email comms with Barry Blaisdell, when I used to fly his Twotter on 2k2 - nice bloke! I even had one of my screenshots on his website, I think it was the SD360 landing in Scotland somewhere!! If you have any problems Fled, I'm sure he will help... H
