Using Downloaded Aircraft in Flight Plans

Postby Lear45Dreamer » Wed Aug 11, 2004 12:19 am

???  I'm a very new newbie, so if this is posted somewhere please forgive my ignorance.  I have down loaded aircraft that I would like use in flightplans but I don't know how.  I know how to use 'ttool202', but I can't seem to incorporate the new planes.

Thanks, Jim

Open the aircraft.cfg file using Notepad; look at (or copy) what's written after title=; e.g., title=Emerald Harbor Air Tri-Motor

Open aircraft.txt using Notepad (after decompiling with TTools). Add a line using numbered sequence; i.e.,
AC#1234,95,"Emerald Harbor Air Tri-Motor"

the speed ,95, can be obtained from the perfomance line in the aircfart.cfg file:
performance="Maximum Speed\n130 mph 113 kts      209 km/hr\n\n Cruise Speed\n110 mph    96 kts

Use Save in Notepad when completed

hope this helps; works for me
