I picked up a nice freeware download that contained replacement [Fine Tuning] sections for the default Kingair and Mooney. It makes the Kingair much more realistic to fly.
As a result I would like to upgrade the VC in the Kingair. Does anyone know how to put a decent GPS into the panel, and also if possible a modern autopilot?
With that, and the improved handling, I think the default Kingair would be as good as any commercial add-on.

Hi macca22au,
You seem to be looking for a realistic Kingair with a nicer VC than the default one, right ?
Have you already tried this freeware ?:
http://www.simviation.com/fsxprops9.htmThe Super King Air made quite a lot of noise here when it was released. It might be worth a try don't you think ?

I
really like the Super King Air 300, but the electrical system for some reason doesn't work in my FSX w/acceleration. All my switches are on but I can't start the engines manually and the nav and strobe lites dont work

Thanks Nick, again. But no I didn't know of that site and it looks if he has done an even more complete job.
With my lousy filing system, I have lost the zip with the mods I used, but it was far less sophisticated having only replacement sections for Fine Tuning of the Kingair and the Mooney.
I must check to see if Proposal's problems are the same for me. Certainly only a minimum of the electrics ever worked in the default, only enough for essential tasks. It was a shortcut build for MS

Nick: the file I picked up is called "Baron58f" and contains a text document with [Fine Tuning] for the default Baron and Kingair.
It is made by
tcfoster@charter.netI am sorry that I can't recall which site I got it from, but it wasn't AVSIM as there is no DIZ in it.
The one you recommend looks like a root and branch upgrade of the aircraft cfg. and air file. I will give it a try
