FSX Beechjet 400A

Beechjet 400A. Henry Tomkiewicz AI model made flyable in FSX with pre-installed default Lear 45 panel and sound, thumbnails for your airplane menu, and an FSX compatible engine smoke system with your choice of thicker heavier smoke or thinner lighter smoke. Includes the Henry Tomkiewicz white base model and an N3889T repaint. Compiled by Tom Tiedman.

INSTALLATION:

1.) Copy and paste the entire "Beechjet 400A N3889T (HTAI)" folder into your FSX "airplanes" folder. The gauges are already installed in the panel folder. (If for some reason you can't see the gauges while flying, just copy and paste the "Lear_45_XML" cab file that's inside the panel folder into your FSX "gauges" folder.)

2.) Copy and paste the enclosed "fx_smoke_f6.fx" file and the "fx_enginesmoke.fx" file into your FSX "effects" folder. (They are both probably there already, so look first, or simply overwrite if you are asked to.)

3.) Thinner smoke is already installed. If that's ok, disregard the rest of step 3. If you prefer thicker smoke, then open your 400A "aircraft.cfg" file, find the [SMOKESYSTEM] section, and replace the word "fx_enginesmoke" with "fx_smoke_f6", as the examples below show. (Then click 'file', then click 'save', of course.) Notice that the numerical values for each smoke system below stay the same.

4.) Press your "I" key while flying your 400A and enjoy your smokey flight!
