Gadabout gauges

I downloaded FS2004 RB57B USAF Canberra Bomber and I am really impressed with the way it looks but the 2D panel has all the guages missing, now I looked in the panel cfg file and all the guages are listed and I also opened another Canberra file I have downloaded and compared the two and they both seem similar, so does anybody know how to make the gauges appear in the USAF canberra (any help appreciated)

The plane no doubt came with some of its own gauges. Make sure you put these gauges in the FS9\gauges folder..  OR  (as I prefer), you can put them in the plane's panel folder right alongside the panel.cgf file. That way.. if you don't like the plane and delete it.. its gauges won't remain cluttering your gauge folder.

lol...bet you never read the installation file townoh.......here is the bit you missed..

"........If you do not have the gauges folder from the original GAF Canberra get it now and copy all the gauges into the gauges folder in FS2004."

...better get looking for those gauges then I'd say......commoner ;)

You are right commoner, after trawling through the zip file I noted the readme then had to go hunting for the GAN model (there must be an easier way i.e. models in alphabetical order?) which I duly did and now have an almost full cockpit. I just wish it would say something on the pre download blurb  :-[
