How to install this mod

FSX / P3D aircraft

  1. Extract the downloaded archive

    Use 7-Zip (free) or WinRAR to extract the ZIP to a temporary folder. Don't install while still zipped — the simulator can't read inside ZIP files.

  2. Copy aircraft files into SimObjects

    Place the aircraft folder inside FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes\. The folder must contain an aircraft.cfg file. Effects go into FSX\Effects\; gauges go into FSX\Gauges\.

  3. Verify in FSX

    Launch FSX, go to Free Flight → Select Aircraft and find your new aircraft under its manufacturer.

  4. Always read the included readme

    Every mod ships with a readme.txt or README file. It tells you exactly where files go, what dependencies are needed, and any quirks specific to this add-on.
Still stuck? The readme included with the file is the authoritative source for this specific mod. Visit our Flight School tutorials or ask in our Q&A forum.

    I have hundreds of hours in L-19s. Pilot line-of-sight is scaled to low and small. You CAN see over the panel to the runway in the real airplane. No need for a cutout in the VC or obliterate the runway in the Instrument cockpit. Otherwise, handles like the real airplane. (except easier to handle on the ground than the real one)

    A real joy to fly. My father trained on these in the 1950's, and this brings back memories. Nice work.

    "A"pillers are too thicK in 2-D cockpit, this reduces lateral vision when compared to the Piper cub.

    This is a fun little aircraft to fly. Handles like a dream, good panel & VC, great exterior! A must download.

    This is a great little puttle jumper, great for short runways and low flight.
