FSX Aviatika MAI-890 Engine Smoke Effect

Engine smoke effects bring the Rotax 912 to life on Tim Conrad’s freeware Aviatika MAI-890 ultralight biplane in FSX, adding a convincing exhaust plume that can be toggled in flight for extra atmosphere. Requires the Aviatika MAI-890 base aircraft package and uses an included custom effect with a simple smoke system entry.

Installation:

Copy and paste the enclosed "fx_smoke_f6.fx" file into your FSX "Effects" folder. (It is probably there already, so look first).
Copy and paste all of the [SMOKESYSTEM] info. below ito your Aviatika MAI-890 "aircraft.cfg" file. I pasted mine between the [exits] section and the [autopilot] section with good results.
Press your "I" key while flying your MAI-890 and enjoy the smokey Rotax... (probably just needs a ring job)!
