FSX Victor Mark 1

This is an update for FSX of the Victor Mark 1 by Chris Hodgson. It has been given a panel made from a screen shot. All wheels have been added and other contact points have been corrected. It has new flight dynamics and a changed smoke effect. There is no VC. This is the whole aircraft. By Bob Chicilo.

Unzip to a folder of your choice. Copy the aircraft to the main FS airplanes folder. Copy the effect to the Main FS effects folder, no need to overwrite anything already there.

If you have not already done so, copy the .cab files from the default aircraft panel folders that have them to the main FS gauges folder. For some the .cab flies will be .zip files, as .cab files are a type of zip file.

[Reference Speeds]
flaps_up_stall_speed=135.00
full_flaps_stall_speed=120.00
cruise_speed=461.00 //knots over the ground at 36,000 ft. (272 indicated)
max_indicated_speed=665.00
max_mach=1.20
max_level_speed=551 //knots over the ground at 36,000 ft. (335 indicated)

The above speed table is for understanding where the edges of the ball park are. I found an approach of 140 to 150 knots until you are on short final a place to start. Your own preferences may make it necessary for adjustments.

The autopilot icon will bring up the autopilot used in the Alphasim Victor. Use whichever autopilot you want.
