This package features a freeware Air Zimbabwe Boeing 777-200ER for FSX, bringing an updated model with refined handling and realistic external lighting. It also incorporates new 3D light effects for enhanced visual immersion. Both the original aircraft framework created by Melvin Rafi and the FSX conversion by David Grindele are contained in one convenient download.

Overview

This wide-body twinjet comes in the Air Zimbabwe livery. The airline, serving Zimbabwe and neighboring regions, once operated long-haul distances and aimed to provide reliable air travel across Africa and beyond. The Boeing 777-200ER variant enclosed here features tweaked flight files to work smoothly in FSX, ensuring stable takeoffs, landings, and cruising performance.

Key Enhancements

  • Advanced Flight Dynamics: The existing air file and configuration data have been retouched to improve stability and realism within FSX.
  • New 3D Lighting Effects: Integrated A2A 3D Lights for more vivid navigation, landing, and strobe lights. (A2A 3D Lights & Redux program is required for these effects to function fully.)
  • Maintenance Cowlings: Engine cowlings can be opened by pressing [Shift + E] to simulate inspection or servicing.
  • Jetway Compatibility: Pressing [Ctrl + J] triggers the jetway, which will dock with the fuselage at supported airports.
  • Preserved Meljet Features: The original styling and geometry crafted by Melvin Rafi have been maintained, ensuring the aircraft’s trademark shape remains untouched.

Aircraft Origins

The model stems from a series of designs originally built for earlier platforms like FS2000 and FS2002. Later conversions introduced functionality for FS2004, but certain flight characteristics remained unoptimized until now. This revised edition for FSX refines those characteristics further, bringing the model in line with modern simulation expectations.

Installation

  1. Unzip and copy the included Aircraft folder into your “FSX\Simobjects\Airplanes” directory.
  2. Start FSX and locate the aircraft under “MELJET” in the vehicle selection menu.
  3. Everything required is included, except the A2A 3D Lights & Redux utility, which must be acquired separately for the enhanced lighting to function.
