How to install this mod

FSX / P3D add-on

  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. Place files per the readme

    Most FSX add-ons go into one of: SimObjects\Airplanes\, Addon Scenery\, Effects\, or Gauges\.

  3. 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 notice some people concerned about the undercarriage.

    This model is so realistic that if you try to raise or lower the u/c over 185 knots it will jam. There is an emergency control to get the u/c down but it only works once. This how the real a/c behaves. Always has been a beautiful a/c to fly.

    A very nice, high-resolution plane.

    But the gears do not retract. Has anybody found any solution?

    Love this FSX F-86. Loved the FS9 version, back in the day, too. Great 2D and 3D cockpits. Only problem I have with it is the speed brakes will not function. Every other installed aircraft, equipped with speed brakes, work fine.

    Why doesn't the landing gear work properly? I am using this in FSX and would like to try it in p3dv3. Should work .

    Is there aa fix for the gear in FSX?

    Thanks, Don

    Great plane! Only problem, the canopy is too dark. It makes it difficult to see from views right or left from inside the cockpit.

  8. Ferndog

    I'm just wondering if the download of the day doesn't include everything else around it, like the luggage cart or cones or other objects, like other free ones that I've have downloaded before.

  9. Retracts ?

    Landing gear retracts not working all of the time. They seem to cycle once or twice during a flight, and then stop working ? I have tried them from keyboard buttons and cockpit with the same results. Can you help me ?

    It's a beautiful plane otherwise.

    Thank you.
