Experience a revised flight deck layout for the well-known Fokker 50 turboprop, allowing you to switch between primary and secondary pilot roles while selecting either a Delco inertial navigation solution or a Bendix/King flight management package. This update refines the existing payware cockpit design by Precision Aerobus and introduces additional user-friendly enhancements. Developed by Emile Lancee, this package modifies core panel components but excludes the proprietary gauges from Precision Aerobus, so owning the original Microsoft Flight Simulator X Fokker 50 is essential.

Refined Cockpit Configurations and Navigation Options

These modifications focus on broadening the standard cockpit with either a Delco Carousel Inertial Navigation System (commonly found on certain military and classic commercial transports) or a BendixKing/Honeywell Flight Management System (popular with many modern commercial jets). Each variant includes a distinct file designation, such as std_Bendix or std_LTN, so simmers can easily select their preferred avionics suite.

Fokker 50 Standard Panel Modifications.

Expanded Panel Customization and Pilot Switching

Dual-Pilot Perspective

This update allows quick transition between the captain’s seat and the first officer’s vantage point, improving immersion for those who prefer a multi-crew experience. The included Panel.std_Bendix or Panel.std_LTN files ensure a smooth shift between these views while retaining the turboprop’s essential instrumentation.

Streamlined Pedestal and Radio Stack

The pedestal panel has been comprehensively revised to centralize navigation functions and audio controls. Additionally, an undockable radio and navigation management interface consolidates VOR, COM, ADF, and other critical equipment for quick access. These updates suit pilots aiming to replicate authentic shorter commuter routes typical of the original Fokker design.

Other Key Adjustments for Enhanced Usability

  • Improved Switch Interaction: Extra mouse-sensitive switches have been implemented for the parking brake, yoke visibility, and radio tuning panels.
  • Pop-Up Navigation Display: The 2D and virtual cockpit (VC) navigation display is now mouse-activated, offering a separate window for altitude and directional readouts.
  • Central Annunciation Panel (CAP) Tweaks: The CAP has been enhanced to control door operations in both the 2D and VC configurations, replicating real-world procedures for ground and turnaround scenarios.

Installation Details and Developer Credit

To accommodate copyright requirements, none of the proprietary Precision Aerobus gauges are included. Instead, this package overwrites certain configuration files in the existing payware release. Confirm that you have the official Precision Aerobus Fokker 50 installed in Microsoft Flight Simulator X before integrating these changes. All original content is credited to its respective creators, with the modifications provided by Emile Lancee as freeware. This upgrade focuses on enhancing realism and accessibility while maintaining the recognizable qualities of the renowned Dutch-built Fokker 50 airliner.
