You will need to have installed the original files for the CV340 by the above authors. Then you need to do the following:

• Copy the texture file texture.lacsa to your Convair 340 folder.
• Make a backup copy of your aircraft.cfg file in that folder.
• In your aircraft.cfg file go just after the last entry in the [fltsim.##] list and add the following text, making sure to replace "XX" in the [fltsim.XX] with the next number that would follow after your current last number.

description=While the Convair Liner series was begun by American Air Lines, ordering the CV-240, United Air Lines was the prime mover behind the CV-340. The 340's fuselage was longer to seat 1 more row of passengers, and was owned by many major airlines. TI-1016 was c/n 176, and served with Lacsa from 1954 to the early 60's. It was sold to North Central and converted to a CV-580; it appears that it later went to Air Inuit, and possibly remained in service until the late 90's.
