FSX Beechcraft Baron 58 Damage Mod

This mod adds to your default Beechcraft Baron a little realism. Features include: engine-1 and engine-2 wear and damage (with fire and sound effect); engine oil use, adding oil for each engine; oil consumption for each engine; propeller wear with sound effect for each engine; flaps and flaps motor wear and damage; landing gear and landing gear motor wear/damage with sound effect; wheel brake right and wheel brake left damage with sound effect; flight controls wear and damage (aileron, elevator, rudder) with sound effect; AFCS (Automatic Flight Control System) servos wear and damage with sound effect; cowl flaps-1 and cowl flaps-2 damage; overspeed (if you fly faster than 195 knots you hear then airframe stress sound effect); pitot overheat (if you use pitot heat too long on ground). All damage situations will be logged and saved. If you leave the aircraft with damaged status, then you have the same damaged and wear status at next day. By Ismail Hakki Guzel.
