About the clickable gauges...

Nearly all (probably about 95%) of the gauges in the "facing front view", and "navigator station" images work.
Unfortunately, I believe everything you see in the copilot's image is not clickable, and all of the switches on the back wall are unclickable. Still , that leaves a lot that are, and one can use full procedures to operate this aircraft.

That's also a weather radar that you see in the navigators station near the upper left, and yes, it is freeware and fully functional! The Project Tupolev Tu-154M comes with the same one.

I haven't ventured into the very back room yet, but I am guessing that it is where the weapons officer operates from, since this is an anti-ship/submarine aircraft. I don't think anything back there is functional. There are also some controls on the upper part of the overhead panel (just out of view on the shots) for opening the weapons bays.

Thanks for looking.

Ivan, I'll send you some images with how to get the APU running.

I'm really enjoying flying this plane!

Is this for FSX? Looks very impressive and want to try.

@Mistro,

It was created for FS2004. I am unsure if it works in FSX, but I highly doubt it.

Already tried the 'fly to and hold' mode of the autopilot... you can dial in a heading that it follows until you pass the selected VOR heading, when you cross the vor line, it will continue on that vOR line
