Check the downloads section here at SimV, either under panels or props, I just downloaded one here a few days ago  ;D

Generally, VC's are not downloadable as they are part of the a/c's '*.mdl' file.

The exception would be if someone did a total upgrade to an a/c, which now displays a V/C.

At that time [1909] the chief engineer was almost always the chief test pilot as well. That had the fortunate result of eliminating poor engineering early in aviation.

There is a whole aircraft package by Francisco Sanchez Castaner. It has a VC and Cabin!

Regrettably, you'll find that the ATR panel/VC is a problem in FS2004, unless you find a version the rest of us haven't.

Look at the following

http://www.simviation.com/cgi-bin/yabb/ ... 477;start=

I'm afraid I've not had the time to upload my version yet which has matching panel and VC and a nice overhead which is useable in flight (the one that comes with the plane is very elaborate but it takes up the whole screen so you can only use it on the ground). I think Fly-In's update using the Kingair gauges has been.

The 'small' ATR doesn't have a virtual cabin but the 'big' one does. I think that's the 500 but I can't remember the model. The version I have is the Iberia Regional. Very nice

The reason all this panel re-working was necessary was because some gauges didn't show properly on the panel and also, because of a gauge conflict, HDG and CRS only changed in multiples of 10 degrees (rather than 1 deg) and ALT only in 1000s (not 100s) of feet.

Here's where I'm at with my panel.

Nearly there. Want to get the proper surrounds round the ADI and HSI in the VC though

And here's the version that I fly with the VC and cabin
